I have always been one of those people who only wears one watch. The watch I have been wearing since 2005 is stainless steel and understated. Every season I see new watches on the runways and on store shelves. I always think “What a cool trend, maybe I will buy one,” but it never seems to happen. In 2013, I have been craving a new watch. The colorful watches popping up on the runways and on the streets have really caught my attention. I was thrilled when Lolly Watches contacted me about their new line of colorful, eco-chic watches. Not only are Lolly Watches bright and cheery, they are on-trend and have a special surprise which sets them apart from other colorful watches in the marketplace.

Do you remember scratch and sniff stickers when you were a kid? My favorite scratch and sniff stickers were the ones which smelled like fruit; specifically grape! I have always loved the smell of grape. Erasers, stickers, you name it; anything which came in a scent had to be grape! Do you want to know what makes Lolly Watches so much cooler than other colorful watches on the market? They come with scents! How fun is that?!

In addition to beautiful colors and fun scents, Lolly Watches are eco-chic! That’s right! Made from eco-resin, a naturally sustainable polymer, Lolly Watches are environmentally friendly and help reduce the use of plastic! Love that! Lolly Watches are also a “Plant-A-Tree” partner. The company is dedicated to planting a tree for every watch they sell. How fabulous is that!

Of course I chose the grape scented purple Lolly Watch to share with you. Not only is purple one of my favorite colors, I still love the smell of grape; even though I am pushing the big 4-0! This purple Lolly Watch is the perfect, colorful addition to my wardrobe. Purple happens to be a hot color for fall 2013, and it is being shown well into 2014, so I am thrilled I can wear my Lolly Watch for seasons to come.

Outfit: Lipstick: c/o Laura Mercier “Sin” / Earrings: c/o Twisted Silver “Twilight” / Necklace: c/o Twisted Silver “Twilight” / Tank Top: Mossimo / Sweater: Carmen by Carmen Marc Valvo (on sale!) / Belt: Prada / Pants: Gap / Handbag: Chloe / Nail Polish: Chanel Alchemie / Boots: c/o Joie

Twisted Silver has done it again! With beads in shades of grey and a warm heart set on antique brass, the new “Twilight: collection from Twisted Silver is perfect for fall! The necklace can be worn several different ways; four of which are shown above. With this outfit I wore the necklace with the clasp in back. The clasp can also be worn in front and adjusted to any length to create a y-necklace. Love that!

Of course like many of Twisted Silver’s necklaces, the “Twilight” necklace can also be worn as a bracelet. I love wearing it as a bracelet with 3/4 length sleeves or short sleeves.

The “Twilight” collection is dainty, which is right in line with the current runway and street trend toward dainty jewelry. The neutral colors make the collection easy to wear with fall 2013’s color palette. Love!

I paired Twisted Silver’s new “Twilight” collection with my favorite pair of khaki’s and a comfortable lace cardigan sweater by Carmen by Carmen Marc Valvo. The booties, which are incredibly soft and comfortable, were a fun way to mix berry hues with the tank top. This was perfect on a recent warm fall day here in the San Francisco Bay Area.
