Adexe Watches | Handmade Timepieces

Adexe Watches--Watch Review by ConfettiStyle

As someone who is always on the go and a stickler for being on time, I always wear a watch.  In fact, a stylish watch is one of my essential fashion accessories.  Over the past few months I’ve been fortunate to add a couple of new watches to my jewelry collection. My newest watch has quickly become a favorite and one that I wear on a daily basis.

Recently, Adexe Watches reached out to me with an opportunity to review one of their classic timepieces.  I wasn’t familiar with the Adexe brand but after some research I knew I wanted to collaborate with the company.

Adexe is a London, UK based company that has been making watches since 2015.  Founded by a father and daughter team, the company is known for creating uniquely appointed timepieces at affordable prices.  All of the watches feature a curved, hardened crystal glass dome that enhances the clarity of the watch face.

Design Is In The Details

Another feature that makes Adexe watches so special is that every watch is created by hand. The watch faces are made in-house by professional glass makers who layer, cut and mold the crystal glass into  various shapes.  All of the watch straps are made from Italian leather or hand-polished stainless steel mesh and designed to enhance each unique timepiece.

After looking through the entire Adexe watch collection, I choose the Foreseer Grande Silver.  The oversized watch face, polished stainless steel band and multi-function dial where what drew me to this watch. My fashion style is classic with and bit of flair so this watch compliments my personal style to a T.

When I received my watch, I was excited to see that included in the box were tools so I could adjust the length of the strap to fit my wrist.  I headed to the Adexe website and watched the short videos they created which walked me through the simple steps of adjusting my watch band.  Added Bonus..All Adexe Watches come to with a pair of pre-set extra straps in black or brown colour so you can change the look of your watch to fit your wardrobe.  There is also a video that shows you how to change your mesh band to the leather strap.

Watch Review by ConfettiStyle

I’ve been wearing my watch for several weeks and love the look at fit.  The band is comfortable and the dial is easy to read.  I know I’ll enjoy this watch for many years to come.

Head over to the Adexe London to check out their entire collection of watches. Adexe watches would make a great Father’s Day or graduation gift and for a limited time only the company is offering free personalization on their watch straps. And International delivery is FREE!

Cheers to a lazy weekend!  The hubs and I got up and ran a few errands this morning and now that we’re home, we’ve been watching gory movies on the SyFy channel. I hope I don’t have a bad dream tonight.

Anyway, I wanted to pop in and share a few seasonal favorites, fashion finds and decor inspiration from the week.  I hope you enjoy!

  FALL & HOLIDAY DECOR INSPIRATION

Weekend Wrap Up | Fab Finds & Inspiration from ConfettiStyle

I spotted this tassel Christmas stocking at Anthropologie and immediately thought about how easy it would be to UpStyle a plain stocking with yarn tassels.

I love this seasonal Thanksgiving tablescape from Minted. The layering is perfection.

For those of you that decorate for Christmas in traditional red and green, these gorgeous ornaments are for you.

These beaded ornaments would make fun wine bottle or gift tags.

Great Thanksgiving traditions the make the most of the day.

  FALL & HOLIDAY FASHION FINDS

Weekend Wrap Up | Fab Finds & Inspiration from ConfettiStyle

  When its cold outside (like today) you’ll most likely find me wearing yoga pants and a sweatshirt. I love a sweatshirt that has a little style to it and recently picked up this cute striped sweatshirt.  It’s so cozy and I love the puff sleeve.

This tartan plaid shirt would be fun to wear to a casual Christmas party.

I don’t shop H & M that often but they’ve got some really cute clothes right now.  And you can’t beat their prices.  This cute nordic inspired sweater and this mohair blend sweater are two seasonal faves.

Weekend Wrap-Up | Fall Favorites & What I Bought

Happy Saturday!  I woke up this morning, stepped outside and got a whiff of fall.  It was cool outside and I noticed that the leaves are slowly starting to change on the trees.  Unfortunately the cool temps won’t last because its supposed to be in the 90’s today.  With temps like that I’m planning to stay close to home this weekend, get through my magazine stack and do a little work.  Wherever you are, I hope your weekend is great.

Here are a few of my favorite things from the week:

Greetings friends!!   I hope you enjoy the long weekend and dodge the rainy weather that’s plaguing most of the country this weekend.

As you read this, the hubs and I are in Florida getting ready to set sail on our cruise.  I’m so excited for a little down time with friends.  While I’m soaking up the sun, I hope you have an amazing weekend and find a little time to enjoy the roundup of links I have for you.

Bon Voyage!

OMG!  This Highlands, North Carolina home designed by Carole Weaks is breathtaking. As you scroll, pay attention to all the little details that make the rooms special.

I’ve been struggling with an over flowing to-do list so I’m going to give The Big Three a try.

Such a brilliant (and inexpensive) Ikea DIY hack.

This is the next book I’m going to purchase.  If the cover is any indication, it’s going to be fun.

So many cute things in the new Hearth & Hand Collection at Target. This tumbler, this umbrella stand and these adorable serving trays are my top picks.

Have you ever thought about launching an online business?  If so, you’ll want to read this.  Great tips!

10 Things the French Always Do When Decorating

H anyone tried Amazon’s Prime Wardrobe?  It allows you to get a selection of clothing and try it on at home before you buy it.  Whatever you don’t like can be returned for free.  Sounds pretty enticing, right?

I’m planning to take the week off from blogging but will be over on my Instagram feed sharing bits and pieces of our trip.  I hope you’ll join me.

Tassel Obsessed–One of my favorite details

Is there a certain design detail that you’re kind of obsessed with?  It might be floral patterns or maybe it’s mercury glass finishes.  For me that one design detail that I just can’t seem to get enough of is Tassels.  I’ve been crazy about tassels for years and when I opened my home decor store back in 2003, I even named it to reflect my love for tassel–The Scarlet Tassel.  I closed my store in 2011 but tassels continue to be one of may favorite decor and fashion accessories.

A recent round of online shopping turned up lots of great tassel adorned decor and fashion.  I knew you would never forgive me if I didn’t share it all with you so here, my friends are a load of tassel goodies.

 

Tassel Decor and Fashion Accessories Tassel Decor and Fashion Accessories

 

TASSEL MUST-HAVES:

I’m actively starting to shop for spring and summer shoes and these suede tassel loafers are on the list.  I love the bold color and stylish black tassel charms.  You’ll want to grab a pair of the fast because I know they will sell out.  p.s they are currently on sale for $79.88 and also come in a brown toffee color.

 Pillows are one of the easiest and budget friendly ways to update your decor from one season to the next.  This Kate Spade Tassel Pillow would look great on a sofa or as an accent on a bed.  There are 2 yummy solid colors to choose from as well as a boho inspired black and cream stripe.  $129

If you look around your house I’m sure you’ll spot  multiple places where this cute white stool with tassels could go.  It’s the perfect footstool next to a chair or as an accent next to the bed. $139.99

 I’m a bit of a throw collector because I’m always cold.  This chic marled grey knit throw will work with any decor style and is perfect for spring and summer nights watching movies on the sofa.  And I’m pretty smitten with the $69 price tag too!

 Is there such things as having too many tassel earrings.  The fashion trend is still going strong so I say why not add these tassel drop earrings to your fashion lineup.  They are also available in a blue colorway and will only set you back $38.

 Several years ago I wrote a post about shopping at Pottery Barn Kids for fun decor pieces.  This adorable Boho Tassel Storage Tote is just one example of an item that bridges the gap between kids and adults.  It screams magazine basket or blankets storage to me.  There are two sizes available–Small: $39 and Large: $59.

I love dressing up a simple summer dress or t-shirt with bold jewelry like this Cardo Tassel Necklace ($52).  The combination of tassels, pom poms and black and white is definitely a winning combo.

Have you noticed that patterned bath rugs have been trending up for the last few years?  Rugs with an all-over pattern are a great way to add visual interest to a utilitarian space like a bath or laundry room.  This striped bath rug with tassels would be a fun option to give your decor a pop of color.  And it’s under $40…$39.99 to be exact.

This amazing Justina Blakeney Fela Tassel Chandelier  takes tassel decor to a whole new level.  What a statement piece for a living space, bedroom or office.  I love the natural color ($193.50) but also found it in navy here and in pink here.

And finally friends…what do you get when you pair a classic decor piece like a decorative box with a tassel, this set of 3 decorative boxes with tassels.   You could use these boxes stacked as shown or break them apart to decorate a coffee table, bookshelf or night stand.  The set is only $73.99 and is available in 8 gorgeous colors.

Anyone else have a tassel obsession?  

Happy shopping.

Favorites Of The Week {a little of this & a little of that}

This is going to be an exciting (and stressful) weekend.  My brother is going to be setting up all of our electronic and computer stuff today (which always results in a few new gadgets) and we’ve got a little more packing to do.  And tomorrow the movers come to move all our furniture.  As of Monday we’ll officially be in our new house and the unpacking will begin.

Even though I didn’t manage to do a lot of blogging this week, I did find some down time to round-up my favorites of the week.

 Enjoy and have a great weekend!
