Squeeworthy: Soft Watches

Watches are one of those accessories I love hoarding. You wouldn’t know it lately though, since I have been watch-less for several months. All my watches decided to poop out on me and I’ve been too lazy to replace their batteries, so I’ve been functioning without a watch for entirely too long. I tried to remedy the situation by finally getting my beautiful Betsey Johnson watch fitted, but was frustrated to find that not every jewelry store fixes products they don’t sell (annoying).

But then (!) I discovered a lovely website named Deal Pulp. Ladies, I totally recommend joining. Sure, it’s another one of those sale sites, but what I like about Deal Pulp is that it focuses mainly on accessories, and gives you promo codes for existing webstores or selects several items from one to feature at a (much) lower price on a daily basis. While perusing one of their daily emails featuring these deals, I saw one for Soft Watches! Those of you that follow me on Pinterest know that I had pinned these fun & simple watches to my wish list board. Wish, no longer!

Deal Pulp had a promo code for 2 Soft Watches at $12 (regularly $20 each)! I’m pretty sure I squee’d out loud! I immediately purchased the promo and selected my 2 colors: white and pink. For those of you unfamiliar with Soft Watches, they are a modern day slap watch that come in a variety of bright colors. For fashionistas on a budget, like myself, they are the perfect marriage of style and affordability. For this reason, I figured they would be perfect for our upcoming trip to Europe. Not too flashy, but still fashionable.

When they came in last week, I was so excited to try them on. As expected, they looked great on and made even a boring outfit look a little more trendy and fun. My only gripes were that they arrived a little damaged (some imperfections on the bands) and the white one was a bit dirty. You also have to pop the entire face out of the rubber band in order to set the time, which isn’t the biggest deal, but is more time-consuming than just turning a dial on your regular mill watch. Otherwise, I think they are so fun and can’t wait to pair them with some fun fall fashion come vacation time!

Note; I purchased this item with my own money and was in no way, shape or form influenced by either Deal Pulp or Soft Watches. I am only sharing my experiences and opinions with you all, as I am a fan and enjoy informing my readers of interesting products and websites.
