The Budget Fashionista

From a TBF Reader

I wanted to ask you a question about watches. I am interesting in getting a new watch, nothing too bulky but lady like. I am under a budget so nothing that is priced like rolex. Do you have any recommendations?

If you can get to a Fossil outlet they usually have a great selection priced from $40.00 down to $20.00.

I second that Nj Red Head. Fossil makes good quality watches that are very stylish. There is something for everyone. Plus, Fossil also make alot of the other more expensive watches. I have had a leather one for several years and it still looks great, and after all this time I have only changed the battery once…last week.

I used to work @ Cusp and one of our big sellers earlier this year was Toy Watch…they might be a bit bulky for you - but they were a big hit (esp. once people found out celebrities were wearing them). Take a look @ their website they have new spring line out and range in price from about $100-$300.

NJRedHead is on the money, literally with the Fossil suggestion. I am not sure where you live but Belk's Department store sells Fossil also. I got 2 cute watches that were very dainty and lady like from there.

Macys and Bloomingdales also has a great selection of fossil watches.

I didn't know Fossil had outlet stores, but I also second that recommendation. I've had a Fossil watch for years and it's still going strong.
