The Most Fashionable Watches of 2013

Watches are one of those rare pieces that can be both useful and exceptionally stylish. We all need to know what the time is as we go about our business, and when we make the right choice in the wrist wear department, we can also look fabulous as we do it.

As with all accessories though, trends come and go, and it can be difficult to stay up to date with what’s hot at the moment. Here, we take a look at a few of the most fashionable watch trends for 2013. 

Chunky watches

The boyfriend trend continues to be big this year, and will stretch further than just oversized blazers and loose-fitting jeans. A big, chunky watch is a great way to grab attention and add something special to everyday outfits. This look has been seen on all the major catwalks, and will make its way even further into the high street.

Gold watches

Gold watches are massive news at the moment, and just about every celebrity known for their fashion credentials has been snapped with one on their arm. This is great news is you already wear gold jewellery, as your watch will complement your existing items. If you’re more of a silver person, keep other items to a minimum and just wear your watch as a statement piece.

Diamond accented watches

Everyone loves a bit of bling from time to time, and choosing a watch with diamond details provides you with a great option for more formal events and big nights out. Again, these watches tend to be a statement in themselves, so keep other accessories understated.

Classic bracelet watches

Some things never go out of fashion, and bracelet watches fall into this category. They’re effortlessly elegant and can be teamed with almost any outfit, plus you have the added bonus that they won’t seem outdated when the next fashion trends roll in. They’re perfect for those who prefer to go for style rather than trend.

Whatever your budget, there’s a watch for you in 2013. As it’s an item you’re likely to wear on a day-to-day basis though, consider investing a little bit extra. A good timepiece will last for years, and will become one of your wardrobe staples.
