Smathers & Branson recently opened up their Parlour Shop – a great line of needlepoint products that they are calling S&B’s ‘little brother’. They are using more creative needlepoint designs that go beyond the traditional lineup of fishing scenes, golf courses, and college logos. In addition, they are using distressed leather and older metals to give the belts an authentic feel.
I love these belts – it tones down the ‘preppy’ feel and up’s the ‘cool’ factor. My favorite is the Kraken belt, but they are all good:
Ghost Ship:
Pin Up Girl:
Roses:
Shipwreck:
All of these belts, as well as wallets and flasks in the same themes are available on the Parlour website.
