Known all around the world as being a brand that delivers both quality and comfort, CK is a favorite among people of all ages. Recently turning its focus to fashion accessories, the company added watches to its collection and has seen enormous success upon doing so.

Offering both men and women choices when it comes to selection, CK prides itself on being a designer name that the average person can afford. Ranging in price from £150-£500, a CK watch is one investment that is worth making. From the men’s CK Biz, a favorite because it is both sleek and dressy, to the women’s CK Hypnotic bangle, a person can find everything they are looking for in terms of style, quality, and price. From downright funky to timeless, CK watches come in a variety of colours, patterns, and finishes.

The most common is a brushed stainless steel which can withstand normal wear and tear and still look beautiful years later. Watch bands made of leather and authentic crocodile are durable and classy. Different options are available for just about every model possible. The men’s CK Celerity has either a stainless steel band or a black Caoutchouc strap to keep it secured to the arm. Only mildly different in price, both watches offer the CK guarantee.

Philippe Starck Watches Reviewed

16Jun09

No apologies. Two words that perfectly describe the bold, sometimes ascerbic stylings of New Design patriarch Philippe Starck.

Whether he’s designing a toothbrush for your local department store or the interiors of French President Francois Mitterand, Starck is entirely in his element when he’s offering up his own unique and eye-opening interpretations of everything fashionable.

Let’s face it. Wearing a Philippe Starck timepiece is going to get you noticed. It’s going to start some conversations. And it’s going to say a lot about your confidence and your own sense of image and style.

Starck’s watches, marketed and sold through Fossil, are as much like little works of modern art strapped to your wrist as they are like wristwatches. Every watch crafted by Starck is eminently functional at the most basic level. But any notion of simplicity is at once dispatched by the lucid interpretation of form and materials that Starck combines into each watch in his unbelievably distinctive line.

Starck’s Veiled model is a slap across the wrist with bold and modern functionality. What you see at first is a wide banded swatch of stainless steel geometry. But look again and you’ll see the silver toned three handed movement that appears to float at the very center of the bracelet.

While every watch in this iconic line is destined to become a highly collectible piece of wearable art, the O-Ring is, above all, perhaps more reflective of Starck himself. Staring out at you with its all-seeing, unblinking eye, this timepiece looks boldly into the future – and meets it head on.

Looking to buy a Mango Watch? Let Barcelona Charms You Today

13Jun09

Today’s urban professional woman is busy. But is she too busy for fashion? Mango says no, and says it definitively with its unique and sophisticated line of ladies’ timepieces.

Originating in Barcelona, the Mango brand has swept across the globe, with stores in 92 countries and plans to continue its expansion. Just as it expands into new geographic areas, Mango continually explores design and cultural elements to develop its line of haute couture for the modern woman.

Watches offer design elements like charm embellishment and unique strap treatments to keep the line evolving over time.

What woman wouldn’t benefit from the bold freshness of deep, rosy red? Mango’s line of ladies’ watches has recognized the brilliance of a red fashion accent, and employed it in its popular and whimsically romantic heart watch. The bold swash of red color begins on the comfortable satin band, and continues with its use of red Swarovski crystals and tiny hearts on the face. The dangling heart-shaped pendant adds a touch of flirty confidence.

Then there’s Mango’s ladies’ chronograph. With its white face and matching white strap, this watch offers a clean, clear style with a touch of decadent glamour, afforded by the Swarovski crystal embedded dials. In a unique twist, the dial’s numbers are engraved not on the face, but on the watch’s silver tone bezel. A Mango logo charm dangles from the strap, leaving no question to where you get your irrepressible sense of style.

Levi’s Watches - Bold Watches And Modern Edged Styling

06Jun09

In 1873, Bavarian immigrant Levi Strauss set up shop in San Francisco with an eye toward serving the area’s burgeoning population of gold miners and pioneers. His goal was to provide work clothes that were equal to the tasks faced by these hardy newcomers, and his line was known even then for the rugged durability of his brown, multi-pocketed overalls that lent themselves to the arduous task of mining and settling a new area.

Strauss gained additional fame – and an added edge over his competition – by earning a patent for his copper grommets, sued to reinforce the pockets of his trousers and overalls.

The name Levi’s broke new territory again in the early 20th century with its introduction of women’s sportswear, a wholly new concept in that era of limited women’s rights.

Since then, the company has continued to expand its brand with the introduction of an ever evolving line of sports and casual wear, as well as accessories like its popular watches.

In each of its timepieces, Levi’s strives to incorporate its core values of originality, integrity, and courage. With bold line and simple adornments, these watches offer no-nonsense design with flourishes of sophistication and flair that keep them on the very edge of fashion evolution.

In addition to watches geared for the men’s and ladies’ markets, Levi’s also offers unisex styles, like many of those comprising its core collection.

Leather, stainless steel, and fabric straps pair perfectly with bold watch faces and modern-edged styling, some offering a nod to American West details, including the denim for which the company is so well known.

Karen Millen Watches - Fun And Elegant Style

02Jun09

Karen Millen knows what it means to take risks. With only £100 pounds in the bank, Millen and fellow designer Kevin Stanford took the plunge into the highly competitive world of fashion when, in 1981, the pair began designing and selling shirts to friends and relatives. By 1983, the pair had raised enough cash to open the first shop devoted to the Karen Millen fashion line.

From its inception, the company has prided itself on its ability to provide fun, elegant fashions while maintaining an ethical business plan based on fair trade and employee awareness.

Offering touches like animal print straps and crystal embellished dials, Millen timepieces transcend time and seasons.

Millen’s stainless steel bracelet watch offers large, cut glass crystal links flanked by a highly polished stainless steel border, leading into the understated yet ultra-feminine crystal watch face, a unique design that sure to draw attention.

The gunmetal finish of Millen’s wide link watch is a straightforward, bold take on the traditional bracelet style. The addition of glittering tonal stones flanking the square black face and extending into the near reaches of the strap give this watch a touch of elegant sophistication p[perfect for casual business wear or an evening on the town.

The clean, readily apparent sophisticated lines of Millen’s ceramic watch define the line’s pure aesthetic ambitions. With white mother of pearl face and round stone set trim, this watch is an exercise in the type of confident sophistication for which Karen Millen has become known.

Ecko’s Unlimited range offers choices like the Cartel.

In the same range, the Ecko ID goes undercover. Take a look – it’s a stylish gold stainless steel ID bracelet with an iced crystal rhino embellishment. But flip the cover back and you reveal a two-hand analogue timepiece.

Get yourself noticed with The Prez, an Ecko design that’s definitely not shy of style and attention. Choose Eco’s Iced Prez, a fashion icon studded with 1,454 white stones, prong set in the bezel, dial, and case.
