Where do you like to wear your garter belt?

Contributor: Red Vinyl Kitty Red Vinyl Kitty
My husband and me always go back and fourth on this. I always wear my garter belt about an inch or an inch and a half below my belly button, because I don't like the look or feel of something that comes up that high on me. He always tells me I'm wearing it wrong. I don't like my pants up that high, why would I put my garter belt there? So, my question for those of you who wear garter belts is, where do you wear yours?

I think it's technically proper for it to be at the belly button, but I hate having anything at that height. If you bend at the waist, you have the fabric digging into your stomach. To me, garter belts should follow the same trend as jeans: as jeans become lower-rise, garter belts should follow. Wouldn't a garter belt peeking out above jeans be tacky?

I still have a little pooch left over from when I had my son so I wear mine around/just above my hips. If I wear it too high it makes muffin top - ish effects which I do not care for...

I wear mine right on my hips, where my underwear sits. You normally can't tell the two apart unless you're paying close attention if they're the same color.

you can wear it any way you want as long as it does what it's supposed to do. if he doesn't believe you, tell him to look at these.

I don't really think there is a WRONG way to wear it. Depends on the body. How it looks. Where it's comfortable.

I wear mine on my hips, where the top of my panties start. Although I do have one garter belt that is very retro looking and is meant to be high waisted. It's about 8 inches wide so it covers from my waist to my hips.

Thanks guys, I was more curious where everyone else wore theirs to be honest. I know there's no one right way.

Thanks for all the replies!

I have a few different garter belts and all of them wear differently. Some are a little higher and some a little lower.

I prefer around my hip area. I find it kinda annoying if it's up any higher.

It depends on the belt. I have two that are "skirt garter belts" they are fashioned from about 8 inches or so of stretch lace, and they have to be work with the top of the lace above my belly button to fit properly.

For regular belts, it depends. If the garters are adjustable enough, I wear them below my belly button or around my hips. I have a few that I have to wear high due to the fact that my legs are so short, the garters on these are long and they won't fit otherwise.

This one Shelf bra, thong and garter belt I have to wear around my waist, because the garters are SO long.

I'm not as tall as this woman. LOL!

I prefer to wear them lower usually.

I've never worn one... haven't actually thought about this before... but the person who said it should be where you wear your panties seems to make sense to me... if you prefer going commando, where you WOULD wear your panties!!

I usually wear them around the top of my hipbones, at least the strappy styles. For ones that are solid fabric, right under my bellybutton.

Right over I think... I like longer garter belts that go up to the natural waist.

Depends on what the person finds most comfortable. I wear mine belly button height since I usually buy the long ones. These cover my blemishes and make me feel sexy and confident.

I like shiny things! Okay, that totally didn't help. I don't wear garter belts but they definitely look more comfortable below the belly button.

I think the best look would depend on the product in question. But I would guess a lot of modern ones are made for more around the hips than waist.
