WATCH YOU WAITING FOR? + STYLECARTEL GIVEAWAY

Who doesn’t want a watch for the holidays? The real question is think back to how many times you received a watch for the holidays and we’re like,”Hmm… this could have been cooler.” The first watch I EVER wanted was the Baby G-Shock in pink. I must have been in middle school or maybe younger. Anyway, my mum couldn’t justify spending $100 on a watch she knew I would never wear, and could barely read, just because of the color. When Christmas came around, I was sure she had bought it for me. Did she? NOPE. She actually bought me a more grown-up Timex. To prove to her I would wear the watch, I wore it EVERYWHERE to everything. I made such a show about telling the time, that when people asked me what time it was, it took me a while, but when I got it, I shouted it with pride.

I wound up becoming so obsessed with the Timex, my sister or mum had to take it and hide it from me and gave me the excuse, “You must have lost it.”

Give someone the chance to become so obsessed with their watch, like I was this season. AND, purely by coincidence, further down below, there’s a chance to win (1) of (6) Timex watches for you or someone you love.

P.S. I never told Timex this story when we set up the giveaway because they would have been like,”Yikes, homegirl is craaazzzyy.” But now they know and can’t renege the contest. HAHAH!
