A girl can never have too many accessories right? Watches are so on trend right now especially the large faced ones. Good for me! I don’t need my glasses to see it!
I was approached by Nordgreen, a Danish watch company that provides sleek watches in gold or silver for men and women and what caught my eye was the coloured leather straps. I have a gold watch and a silver but it’s nice to have different coloured straps to pair with your outfits I think.
The Silver Native with White leather strap
I’ve chosen the Silver native with a White leather strap and I can change that for a silver mesh strap or any of the leather coloured straps available later. I also have the Native in Rose Gold with a Tan leather strap or a mesh Rose Gold one. Tan accessories are my go to, so I know that will be worn a lot! These are the Best women’s watches I’ve found online
It’s a total White out ensemble for this post! Off to a White party (and it’s about to rain!) imagine those lovely puddle splashes up the back of these trousers! And whilst I’m on the subject of these trousers, I love them! These are from Eastex and I’m pleased to hear that the brand has been saved from disappearing from the high street. These trousers are currently on sale here at such a bargain price and available in all sizes. Great for evening wear or I will be adding a large cosy jumper with them later in the year. (when it’s not raining of course!)
The watch has kept good time. I did wonder about the quality v the price but I can say I’m really happy with it. The Danes are famed for their quality aren’t they? Not overly bulky I like how slim the watch is and sits nicely on my wrist.
The interchangeable straps come in different widths too. And all the watches are sizable. That’s what I like about the mesh straps. My wrists are quite small and the mesh straps will size down to nothing. My daughter has really large wrists and they fit her too.
Here’s what Norgreen has to say about the fine designing of the watches
“We have partnered with renowned Danish designer Jakob Wagner, Founder of Jakob Wagner Studios, and appointed him Chief Designer of the new watch brand. Jakob Wagner has previously collaborated with brands such as Bang & Olufsen, Cappellini, Alessi, Hay and Moroso. Jakob’s work has been exhibited internationally and has received numerous awards. His work is also part of a permanent exhibition at MOMA in New York. Jakob designed the watch range with integrity of design and function in mind and describes of the process: “When a design is completely right, when it reflects the most simple expression of an idea, the point where nothing can be added nor removed – that’s the point when a design achieves its integrity. When this happens, a special bond is created between the human and the object, which makes us happier for every time we interact with it”.
A bonus reason to buy from Nordgreen
Social Responsibility is a core ethic of the Danes. And Nordgreen wanted to incorporate these values into the brand, giving rise to the Giving Back Programme. Where, for each watch sold Nordgreen empower the customer to give back to one of the three causes:
- 2 months of clean water to a child in Central Africa
- 2 months of education to a child in India
- Preserve 200 square ft of rain forest in Latin America.
The top I’ve chosen to showcase the watch with is from choice stores. A clothing shop that sells items from next and other well-known brands. This had sample written on the label for Next and I fell in love with it as soon as I clapped eyes on it. I wonder if they will release it online?
What do you think about the all White look? I feel like I’m sticking out like a sore thumb! It will be ok when I get to my all White gathering I guess?

I like how you can change the strap although I’d stick with the white one, I’ve been looking for a white strap watch for a while. thanks for linking with #pocolo
Love the white outfit and the watch is very stylish! shared x3 Thanks for linking up with us at #BloggingGrandmothersLinkParty
A girl can NEVER have too many accessories, as my little girl likes to remind me. The white looks very youthful and classy. And loving how you can change up the straps. Thats a brilliant feature. Thanks for joining us for the #dreamteam linky.
the watch looks lovely and the white is great for showing off a tan. I would get it dirty too quickly though and would have to opt for the tan colour. Pen x #DreamTeam
I’m a huge a fan of all things white! This watch is no exception. I love your outfit too. Thanks for sharing with #TriumphantTales. Do come back next week!
Ah this all white look is so chic and the texture on that top sets it apart and really makes a statement!

I love this all white look because your sweater is unique! What I mean is it breaks the monotony even though it’s in the same color family. Plus, I really like the look of that sweater. It is different and looks super cozy! Beautiful watch that you picked and I am a fan of big watch faces. Easier to see and no doubt makes a statement on its own!

That watch looks lovely, as do you! Very brave, I would definitely struggle to pull off an all white look! #TriumphantTales
I love your tops Laurie – it’s so different and makes a statement. You look a million dollars! xx
You look great. I am a fan of an all white outfit looks fresh and clean. Love the watch also I am sure with the interchangeable band you will get lots of wear.
Dear, dear lady, only YOU can pull off an all-white look with such panache. I would end up looking like a nurse whereas you’ve added texture, quality and 3D and you and your OH were undoubtedly the most sensational couple at that party! Well done. Hugs, x.
