I don't know why I didn't think of looking at boyfriend watches before but I guess we get into a rut sometimes and get blinkers. I so appreciate your input and ideas and I'm excited to get my new watch and try it out.</p> <p>After much thought I've ordered this one from Fossil. I did like some of the purple ones you ladies found for me but I'm thinking this one will be more flexible and will get more wear. </p> <p>Now I just have to wait impatiently for it to arrive (is it here yet?) LOL </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-watch#post-498982 Mon, 02 Jan 2012 13:58:06 +0000 missvee 498982@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you like purple, I'd say get one of the Fossil purple metal watches. I think they are very well styled and priced. Purple is a really hot colour now, so buy it while you can! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-watch#post-498867 Mon, 02 Jan 2012 04:32:35 +0000 Jewell 498867@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How funny, I feel the same way about silver! I have been absolutely devoted to my dainty silver Fossil watch that hubby bought me for years. Everytime I see somewhere with a snazzy masculine goldtome watch I tell myself that one of these days I'll get one, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-watch#post-498866 Mon, 02 Jan 2012 04:32:18 +0000 lyn* 498866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fossil has two purple watches in their current lineup:</p> <p><a href="http://www.fossil.com/en_US/shop/women/watches/aluminum_watches/stella_mini_aluminum_watch_purple-es2903p.html?parent_category_rn=30009&#038;departmentCategoryId=30000&#038;N=0&#038;Ns=p_wsc1%7C0%7C%7Cp_weight%7C0&#038;pn=c&#038;cm_vc=288408&#038;rec=6&#038;imagePath=ES2903" rel="nofollow">http://www.fossil.com/en_US/sh.....ath=ES2903</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.fossil.com/en_US/shop/women/watches/aluminum_watches/stella_large_aluminum_watch_purple-ch2747p.html?parent_category_rn=30009&#038;departmentCategoryId=30000&#038;N=0&#038;Ns=p_wsc1%7C0%7C%7Cp_weight%7C0&#038;pn=c&#038;cm_vc=288408&#038;rec=5&#038;imagePath=CH2747" rel="nofollow">http://www.fossil.com/en_US/sh.....ath=CH2747</a></p> <p>I like the second one </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-watch#post-498861 Mon, 02 Jan 2012 04:25:07 +0000 sarah 498861@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a silver Skagen watch, too!</p> <p>Have looked at Tokyo Bay watches? I always am tempted by their fun colors... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-watch#post-498843 Mon, 02 Jan 2012 04:00:38 +0000 shipskitty 498843@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm firmly on team silver so while I do like the idea of shaking things up with a more masculine style it won't be a gold one at this stage. I guess an all-silver one will be more flexible too so I can swap one out for the other to change up the look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-watch#post-498841 Mon, 02 Jan 2012 03:56:43 +0000 lyn* 498841@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm biased but, I like the Fossil :0 from Shipskitty </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-watch#post-498821 Mon, 02 Jan 2012 03:16:18 +0000 Jewell 498821@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your birthday watch is pretty and classy. The first one is my favorite of the two. But I also like Angie's suggestion of going with something oversized and masculine- preferably gold to shake things up a bit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-watch#post-498796 Mon, 02 Jan 2012 02:43:42 +0000 shipskitty 498796@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe something like this?</p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Fossil-Flight-Stainless-Steel-Watch/dp/B0058ZINH4/ref=sr_1_cc_1?s=apparel&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1325472303&#038;sr=1-1-catcorr" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Fossil-F.....-1-catcorr</a></p> <p>or this which has a dash of purple as well:</p> <p><a href="http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Brand-New-Fossil-Decker-Boyfriend-Purple-Aluminum-Bracelet-Womens-Watch-ES2916-/190615966386?pt=AU_Watches&#038;hash=item2c6198d2b2#ht_1867wt_1073" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Bra.....867wt_1073</a></p> <p>(edited for more links) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-watch#post-498777 Mon, 02 Jan 2012 02:25:50 +0000 shipskitty 498777@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh...Thanks Angie! Now you're taking me out of my comfort zone... Which is probably a good thing LOL. I'll have to think about that. Something still in silver maybe but more masculine. Homework for me - check out over-sized/masculine watches. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-watch#post-498768 Mon, 02 Jan 2012 02:19:10 +0000 Angie 498768@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How about something more over sized and masculine? That will make a nice change to your pretty and feminine Skagen :). That way you can mix things up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-watch#post-498745 Mon, 02 Jan 2012 01:55:45 +0000 Jem 498745@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE your watch that you got for your birthday! I also loves the ones you've picked out from Amazon. My favorite is the first one, I would love to have that one!! The second one is nice, too and I don't think that the snake print would clash with things. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-watch#post-498729 Mon, 02 Jan 2012 01:36:30 +0000 shipskitty 498729@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Ladies,</p> <p>I've got this Skagen silver watch (photo 1) that my lovely husband let me choose for my birthday which I love for work and for going out and at the moment I wear it every day.</p> <p>But I would love to inject a bit of colour and edge into my casual MOTG look with something a little different. I've been looking for a while now both in real shops (nothing exciting there boo) and online. I bat for team silver and wear a lot of cool tones and my favourite colour is purple so I've been leaning towards a purple watch.</p> <p>This one </p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Nine-West-NW1127PRPR-Silver-Tone-Accented/dp/B0044X6C92/ref=sr_1_1?m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&#038;s=watches&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1325467101&#038;sr=1-1" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Nine-Wes.....038;sr=1-1</a> </p> <p>is the first one that is really speaking to me - a little quirky and those silver studs. </p> <p>But I am also a little struck by this one </p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Nine-West-NW-1213WTPR-Silver-Tone/dp/B0058ZTE22/ref=lh_ni_t" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Nine-Wes.....ef=lh_ni_t</a></p> <p>the texture of the band and especially how it looks on the model wrist. </p> <p>Any thoughts. I am wondering if the snake-print style band might clash more with pattered dresses and things?</p> <p>(Edited to add photo - forgot - doh!) </p>
