I made my first spring wish list purchase and I couldn’t be more excited about it: a black watch. I have been on the hunt for an all-black watch ever since spotting one on a girlfriend during my last trip back to New York. I loved the way she paired it with the rest of her mixed gold and rose gold accessories, and that it instantly made her look just that much cooler. So naturally, the hunt was on. I first spotted a similar version last month at a Nordstrom Rack shopping event in San Francisco. I thought I’d take some time to think about it but ended up regretting not purchasing it since the price point was just so good. Luckily (for me), I recently decided to check my local Rack here in Sacramento where I spotted this same Michael Kors watch, and obviously, I made sure to snag it this time around. I don’t always wear watches but when I do, I tend to grab for my guys’ so I love that this one has that oversized borrowed-from-the-boys look. Plus, again, the all black just makes it that much cooler and versatile as it will transition through each season. Definitely recommend adding a black watch to your wish list as well (love this similar style).
