What Time is It?

When I was pregnant in 2007-2008, one of the side effects I experienced was massive puffery. I was swollen EVERYWHERE for almost my entire pregnancy. Because of that, I got out of the habit of wearing a watch. And now that I’ve been sufficiently un-pregnant for nearly three years, it has occurred to me that I should probably stop asking people what time it is and just get a darn watch already.

Here’s what I like:

Lucien Piccard Women's Florence Collection Red Watch from O.co.

The Lucien Piccard Women’s Florence Collection Red Watch from O.co is pretty bold, isn’t it? That would definitely be a statement piece… but I am LOVING all of the fun, bright colors on it. It comes in green and brown, too, though they are more expensive for some reason.

Next on my wish list is courtesy of a comment from What I Wore Wednesday a few weeks ago. Nicole from MomTrends was sporting a white Swatch in her post, and I immediately fell in love! I found this one on Polyvore:

Am I just dreaming to have a watch that “bold,” though? Do I need something a little tamer for everyday work wear? I don’t know. This one from Nine West is nice:

Or, maybe I just need a “watch wardrobe” and get one of every kind I like. (haha) In all seriousness, though, what type of watch do YOU recommend? Tell me in the comments!
