A hip take off of the classic MK Runway timepiece, the flash lens watch in pink and green is a great way to add a pop of color to your neutral ensemble. I can already picture this gem with an all white look and a bright pink lip!

If pink isn’t your thing, the Runway watch in blue is for you. Featuring a bright blue ombre dial and rose gold hardware, this pretty little thing is a great everyday piece. Don’t let the radiant hue scare you. Just like pairing your go-to blue jeans with every single top in your wardrobe, the same rule applies with some blue arm candy.

Finally, if you cannot commit to one color metal, go for the dual-tone watch. The Bradshaw features an iridescent pink and green face, similar to the Runway above, and roman numeral typeface. If your bling is evenly divided between silver and gold, this timepiece is a safe choice.

The dress photographed below is rather loose with a gold sequined overlay. Being roomy in nature, this is the perfect garment to wear for a fancy five course dinner. Who wants to worry about their skirt zipping closed, after chowing down on a delicious meal?! Now just because this dress doesn’t hug your curves, doesn’t mean that it isn’t flattering. The above-the-knee length shows off your legs while the low cut back helps flaunt extra skin back there.

Originally, I styled this look with simple “Peek-a-boo” pearl earrings, my rose gold watch, and nude Christian Louboutin’s – loving how the red sole adds just a touch of color. Being the color enthusiast that I am, however, I swapped out my nude pumps for bright red bedazzled high heels. Which ones do you like more?! I still cannot decide.

In the outfit below, I paired a beige peplum top (sold out but try this or this) with a statement necklace, a bejeweled watch, and a faux fur infinity scarf. I polished off the look with black wax-coated jeans (similar here) and my favorite pair of black pumps.

Isn’t it amazing how a few adornments can transform an ordinary look to a special occasion look in a matter of seconds?!

This two-toned beauty is what you would call the perfect everyday watch! The mixed metals (stainless steel with rose gold accents) make it easy to wear this timepiece with virtually anything in your jewelry armoire, and the pave crystal bezel allows you to mix this item right in with your fine jewels.

Now about that blue face…when it comes to fashion accesories, to me, navy blue is the best alternative to your black and white wardrobe staples. Think jeans. You pair your favorite denim with just about anything, right? The same rule applies here.

Speaking of blue, this would make for a wonderful Hanukkah gift…hint hint!
