This Chili Pepper Viper belt with its crystal encrusted buckle is really something quite special. It all starts with the leather of course...we were very excited to discover this new Aspis (Viper) texture which looks so realistic that it is hard to believe it is not the real thing! Its distinctive black and white patterning is infused in this case with a lovely vibrant chili pepper red undertone that permeates the whole strap. The skin effect will certainly add lustre to any outfit, giving it some edginess and contrasting with the flatter nature of most fabrics whilst the various tones and natural patterning within the leather make this belt amazingly versatile for any number of occasions. When it came to choosing a buckle we decided to go for this elegant prong style buckle in a shiny gunmetal finish. The buckle has a lovely hammered texture whilst the gunmetal finish picks up perfectly on the dark veins running through the leather. of course it is the deep red encrusted Swarovski crystals that add real flair, the tone working beautifully with the chili pepper belt tone and adding a mellow sparkle to the belt. This is a belt that will always be the making of any outfit it is paired with - its variety of colours means you can pair this up with black, grey, white, blue...and more! You can certainly wear this by day but it will easily morph into an eveningwear piece too adding an eye-catching sparkle to any outfit.
