Where? London Fashion Week

When? February 2017

Why? It’s always tricky deciding what to wear for London Fashion Week. A lot of preparation goes into styling up outfits before the week begins, but once the shows are in full swing I rarely end up wearing any of the outfits I’d prepped and often opt for a look styled up on the day! But it is a truth universally accepted that ‘it’s all in the accessories.’ A wrong turn in the watches, shoes, bags and jewellery stakes can make or break an outfit.

I’m obsessed with watches, they are one of my favourite accessories. This season Rotary Watches asked me to style some of the key looks from the SS17 watch collection with my London Fashion Week outfits, to give you some ‘how to wear it’ inspiration. #Sponsored.

Here’s a photo diary of my favourite styles, which are the watches to watch and how to style them up…

Big thank you to Jay McClaughlin photographer for taking such beautiful photos on the Olympus Camera.

The blue dial, Tradition Men’s Swiss watch is one of my favourites from the collection this season. I love masculine style watches, they give a harder edge to my often feminine outfits. This large, clean faced, silver timepiece is minimal, yet makes a bold statement. And at £325 it the perfect versatile timepiece that can be worn with a myriad of styles.

I’m a big fan of rose gold jewellery and watches and this Rotary Windsor Ladies Swiss watch at £179 is my favourite in both price and style. Its mock croc leather strap gives it an antique vibe and it’s such a classic and elegant piece it can be worn day to evening.

Day 3: And my final favourite piece from the collection is this elegant and dainty, Petite Ladies Stone Set Bracelet Watch.  It’s the perfect accompaniment for those dressed up occasions. Ideal for adding a touch of sparkle to your look. At £199 it’s a great entry level price point for a bit of bling!
