{Glam} Watch It!

January 18, 2012 in Glam: Style & Trends, Mens

I am not too much of a jewelry kind of girl. Sticking to the basics, I usually always have a pair of simple studs, perhaps my favorite ring from a past birthday, and an occasional statement necklace to add more interest to simple a top.

Let’s just say my friends would rather raid my closet than my jewelry box. One thing is for sure though, they always turn to me to ask for  the time. I Stephanie, am the keeper of time.

What piece do I always sport on my wrist? A watch.

I love watches, and maybe, just maybe, even more than my obsession with glasses and hats.

* * * * * *

Men and women both share in having that staple watch. That piece that may have broke the bank, may be their only designer item in their drawers, but that piece that represents what type of person they are.

Watch psychology? Maybe!

Let’s try…Class is now in session:

The pale green of this D&G watch is beyond its… time…with nudes and pastels alluding to the the Spring 2012 trend forecast. This Fashionista has an eye for style and may have a preppy, feminine, well-edited all over look.

With a mighty slogan, “Time for Rebels”, Tag Huer is an iconic watch choice for any person who wants advanced technology with a traditional approach. Expect the wearer of this watch to mean business, have a need for adventure, and have great appreciation for the classics.

I have collected a few pieces that have really stuck out to me.

Happy browsing!

Vintage Squared

{Featured: River Island, Forever 21, Casio,  Betsey Johnson, Burberry, DKNY}

The real question is..

How is it that even though I have a watch as part of my daily uniform that I still arrive late to class…?

Maybe next time.

Hello Men.

What do you wear?

Think about it. Whether you are a street savvy satorialist or a straight-up “don’t” from the GQ style page…you still have a style. Your style.

When giving advice to men and women, I always first ask for them to define their natural style. One of the worst things you can do is slap someone upside their fashion-clueless head and throw them in a three button suit and skinny tie and expect them to like it.

Style is personal…similar to how you choose your bedroom furniture or the car you drive.

The good news is you don’t have to go buy a whole new wardrobe to keep-up.

These fashion forward favorites will keep you looking good in a cinch.

This month for men…
