Bling Bling Watch - On the Cheap & Safe!



So I know I said I was only going to post once a week but i'm too much of a Do Do Bird to remember my fab ideas so I need to post at least some of them while they're hot. And this one's def. hot to trot! My hubby had redeemed himself (at least for a few weeks) And I guess set himself up for some extra attention if you know what i'm sayin'. ;)

Since i'm not able to afford some of (let's be honest, most of..) the baubles I used to pick out, i've had to resort or let's just say alter my tastes to suit the current (temporary!!!!!) times...

I do have some pretty fancy watches but those just aren't practical while trying to juggle 3 kids and all that entails.. poopy, mud, ketchup, spit out gum.. you know the drill. So I have basically destroyed my most fancy watch in a matter of 2 years and have been forbidden to wear it unless it's for special occasions ect...

Valentines day came & went without so much as a card!! Very much unlike my sweet (to a fault) hubby. I told him I wanted 2 carat diamond studs and he thought I was kidding. Well I was sort of (for now....) but I meant the ones from http://www.qvc.com/qic/qvcapp.aspx/view.2/app.detail/params.item.J138053.desc.Diamonique-100-Facet-Cushion-Cut-270-ct-twStudEarrings-14K

I'll save that little recently discovered secret for another post...

So this afternoon my hubby drops a Fossil bag in my lap. Fossil? Has anyone even heard of them since 1990? Are they still in business?

Not only are they in business but man have they adapted to the times!
Their website is truly impressive and the watch I got is FABULOUS! It's glamourous and functional without looking cheap! I know now i'll feel comfortable wearing it every day knowing that it's safe if God forbid I lose or break it. And the best part... $95 bucks!!


Fossil has tons of different designs and the one I got truly feels to me like it could be worn dressed up or down. They also have a very cute clothing and accessory line and have a new feature where you can build your own watch if you don't see one in their collection that suits your taste. Those look pretty boring to me though.

Here's the watch I got. http://www.fossil.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product____22141184_211502?departmentCategoryId=30000&N=0&Va=108&Ns=p_wsc0%257c0%257c%257cp_weight%257c0&rec=17&pn=c&imagePath=ES2456
I knew hubby bubby would come through!
He has a heart attack every time he sees me scrubbing a tub or cleaning up God knows what with the good stuff on.

A girl has to feel like a Queen no matter what she's doing or where she is in her life at the time, right?
