JORD WOOD WATCH + GIVEAWAY!

Happy Saturday, everyone! I’m back from vacation and feeling so refreshed and recharged! Charleston, SC is such a magical place that I would recommend to anyone looking for down-time and delicious food (seriously, their shrimp + grits are to die for!). 

I wore this casual outfit for a dinner date this week and I was so excited to break out my new bright, summery lip because it paired so effortlessly with my simple black tee. I’ve recently been a total minimalist and focusing on purchasing basics that can be re-worn and layered easily. Maybe I’m just subconsciously starting to plan for our European honeymoon in October? Who knows.

Typically during the warmer months I try and keep things a tad bit lighter and simpler, as I’m sure we all probably do. (Especially my #Texas babes!)

Switching foundation for CC cream

Statement jewelry to dainty, feminine pieces

Darker nail polish to bright polish

Contouring the face to all-over bronzing

Matte lips to glossy lips

With that being said, my new JORD Wood Watch was the perfect, simple accessory to add to my basic outfit because it added the right amount of texture without taking away from the overall simplicity. And to be completely honest, I am extremely picky when it comes to choosing a watch. I’m that crazy person who thinks a watch can make your arm look really amazing or really short and stubby. When searching for a watch, I typically always gravitate toward larger-faced watches with a thinner band, so when I stumbled upon the JORD Frankie series it was a definite win-win situation for me. And can we talk about the hand-crafted Zebrawood? So unique and eye-catching! Don’t ya agree? #love

JORD Watches are timepieces that are modeled after a modern lifestyle. They make their watches for people who don’t just have somewhere to be, they have somewhere to go. And more than anything, they strongly encourage you to make your time count, which I especially love.

After finding a watch that I loved, I immediately began to think of Father’s Day which is right around the corner (June 19th for those of you who forgot!). Gifting for dad can be tricky. He typically doesn’t want much, but everything you can think of gifting, you have probably purchased for him in the past.

The good thing is, you can never have too many watches! 

JORD offers a wide selection of timepieces for dad that he’ll actually get excited about this Father’s Day. I have four watches narrowed down right now for my pops – I love this, this, this AND this one! Now I just need to decide which one to purchase. Which one is your favorite?

I hope everyone is having a fabulous weekend and don’t forget to spoil the special dad in your life this year! xo

    I have depended on my smartphone for the time for several years now. I do love the watch, as it would be perfect just for a jewelry piece.

    I’ve never seen a wood watch quite like this. They’re usually clunky and odd. This one is unique yet classic. SO pretty!
