The Look: Watch It—Bling Rocks

BY March 24, 2017
 

Back in the day, “good” jewelry was kept in an armoire or vault, to be dusted off and worn only for evenings and dressy occasions; something that’s always seemed rather a shame to me. After all, what’s the good stuff being saved for, if not to wear and enjoy? Happily, these days it’s perfectly acceptable to wear a diamond watch with jeans and a tee and—style bonus points here—it’s decidedly modern to do so. Watch designers and makers have intrinsically understood this juxtaposition, creating serious timepieces with sporty straps and contemporary looks. It’s a timely fashion this spring to wear some bling. 

Happy Sport watch with white gold, diamonds and Mother of Pearl by Chopard, $65,820; Provident Jewelry, providentjewelry.com.
