Tick Tock its time to Shop!
This post was inspired by a request from one of my favorite people: the always fabulous Katrina (co author of one of my favorite blogs Hey Little Birdie)
Although watches make a perfect purposeful accessory that all women love, I have yet to feature them on Color Me Courtney. So I am beyond thrilled that Katrina suggested such a useful and popular topic. Consider this post as your person shopping guide to fabulous fashion watches, all the featured watches will be under $500.
The Go to Watch:
In the past few years, Michael Kors watches have become the classic fashion watch. They are cute, simple and chic, but at this point you will find it on the wrist of all your friends as well. In order to stand out, I suggest upgrading to a unique style as featured below.
(Starting on the far left and scaling down)
Large Gold Runway $250, Rose Gold Runway $250, Garret Chronograph & Crystal $275, Tortoise & Gold $250, Tortoise Chronograph $250, White Polyurethane & Goldtone $195, Gold Runway Logo Dial $225.
Switch It, Change It:
One way to break out of the Michael Kors brand funk is to switch to an equally fabulous but refreshingly different look with a Marc Jacobs watch.
Sloane White Rubber $150, Gold Case Leather Strap $200, Chronograph Ceramic $425, Blade Round Leather Magenta $200, Purple $340, Amy Stainless Steal $300, Gold Marci $175, Lidia Stripe $225, Rivera Resin $350
Switch To Square:
If you really want your wrist glitz to stand out from the rest, switch to a sassy square shape. This shape is a little more sophisticated and while still remaining fashionable.
Gold Skinny Diamante $38, Contrast Dial Leather Strap $63, Harriet Square Face Watch in Crocodile $175, Just Cavali Logo Enamel $290, Swarovski Citra Square, $380, BCBG Elite $195, Skinny White Square $125, Brooklyn Square Metal $180.
Charmed, I'm Sure:
For an unconventional watch look that still does the time-telling job, try a charm bracelet! This option is one of my favorites because I find charm bracelets to be classic, chic and something every woman should own.
Betsey Gold Multichain $155, Gold guess Faux Pearl $125, Forzieri Emerald Dress Watch $218, Tiffany Padlock Charm $450, Carolee Gold Charm $250, Juicy Charm $495, Geneva Toggle Charm $20
Bow Baby:
By now, you all know that I have a slight obsession with bows, so of course I had to explore the option of a bow watch! I was pleasantly surprised with what I found: elegant options with a flirty flair that add a girly touch to a somewhat masculine accessory.
