go big or go home

Wrist watches are making a come back. After some years of being overshadowed by cell phones and iPods to inform us of the time, watches are finding their place in society again not as a time piece, but as a sophisticated fashion accessory. The bigger the watch, the better. And it better be old school. Save the digital stuff for electronics.

Curtis & Co. Big Time World Watch, $1,820

GMTS6, 3H ITALIA, $1,160

Pelly Chronograph Watch, Marc by Marc Jacobs, $225

DIESEL Silicone Strap Round Watch, $100

the color of Fall 2011

It's about that time. Summer is ending and Fall wardrobes are on the horizon. So what color MUST you have in your closet this year? According to Bloomingdales it's crimson. The website has a side bar link specifically for crimson handbags. If that isn't convincing, then I don't know what is.


Pair a crimson handbag with deep browns and army greens and finish up your outfit with a cream colored hair accessory.
