Fashion Fix: One to Watch



Good evening!
How are we all this fine Easter Sunday?

So today I'm doing a post I've been wanting to do for a while



Watches!
I just love watches,
I know some people just have 1 or 2
but to me they are just another accessory!

First up are these three,
they are my everyday safe watches
L to R
Brown leather watch by Fossil: £60
bought for me by my mum for my 18th
used to wear it every day but now I find it boring

White watch with coloured numbers by Avis: £25
Love this one, bought on a whim because it was quite cheap
very late 80's early 90's

Watch with a mother of pearl face and zebra print strap by Gossip: £25
I ordered this one off QVC
I wanted to love it, but the strap is really stiff which puts me off wearing it



These are my favourite watches
L to R

White bow bangle watch by Betsey Johnson £50
this is seriously cute,
Its very feminine and pretty great to wear when going out
the only thing is the bangle doesn't have a catch on it
so it just comes off when pulled
the little diamond in the middle comes up to reveal the face




Next is my favourite watch of all time
My Black patent leather Marc Jacobs guitar watch: £150



The first designer item I have ever owned
I bought it after seeing it on Mary-Kate Olsen
a bit more expensive than all the others
but totally worth it
people comment on it all the time
and it helps me channel my inner rock chick!

and on the right
My Black and Pink Retro LTD Digital watch: £50
My boyfriend got me this for my 21st!
I love the colours, its soo 80's!
It matches my hair
and I love the fact its digital
as truth be told I'm not actually that good at reading the time!



and lastly

In the middle my Red and Yellow LTD Watch: £50
It reminds me of Lego and McDonald's!
super kitsch, and it makes a plain outfit pop
this was me trying to stop myself buying a more expensive ToyWatch
like these:
and it kinda worked, I'm perfectly happy with this one!


on the left and right
my Sekonda black and white Chanel J12 lookalikies : 2 for £30 or £20 each
I bought these this week
which is what prompted me to do the post
I love them so classic!
they fit in with the ceramic / plastic trend
but go with everything
and Hell they look like Chanel!


how many watches do you own?
do you think of them as an accessory?

Hope you enjoyed!

xXx
