Okay, so, today I wanted to try something new, something I saw a lot of people talking about online: styling an outfit around a watch. You know, like making the watch the main character. I always thought watches were just for telling time, but apparently, they can be a big part of your look. So, I decided to give it a shot and see what the hype is all about.
First off, I had to pick a watch. I have a couple, but I went with this silver one I got a while back. It’s got a simple, classic design, nothing too flashy. Figured it would be easier to work with. Then came the hard part: the outfit. I stared at my closet for a good while, not gonna lie. I was completely clueless, just standing there like a dummy.
- Trial and Error
- Finding the Right Combo
I started grabbing stuff that I thought might match the silver watch. Tried on a black dress first. Looked okay, but a little too formal for what I was going for. Then I tried a white blouse and jeans. Better, more casual, but still not quite right. It was one of those moments where you start questioning all your fashion choices. It felt really dumb at first but after a while, it became kinda fun.
After a few more tries, I finally landed on something that clicked. I put on a light blue sweater, some dark wash jeans, and some white sneakers. It was simple, but the silver watch really popped against the blue. It was like the missing piece I didn’t know I needed. I added a simple silver necklace to tie it all together. When I saw it all together I was like “wow, this actually works!”.
The Final Touches
I wore this outfit out to grab coffee with a friend, and she actually noticed the watch right away. Said it looked really nice with the whole outfit. That was a nice little confidence boost, not gonna lie. It’s funny how something as small as a watch can make a difference. It felt like I put in actual effort, even though it was just a normal day. I walked a little taller and felt a little better. Huh.
So, yeah, that was my little experiment for the day. It was definitely out of my comfort zone, but I’m glad I tried it. I don’t think I’ll be doing this every day, but it’s cool to know that I can switch things up and make a watch the centerpiece of my outfit if I want to. It’s like a whole new way of looking at accessories. I might even try it with my gold watch next time. Who knows, I might even become a watch person. We’ll see how it goes from here. Maybe I’ll keep you guys posted next time I try this. I dunno, it was kinda fun!
