I love people with a distinct style. Karl Lagerfeld is one of those distinct people that you could recognize from far away from any direction. His trademark sunglasses, ponytail and consistent black & white getup is beyond memorable. When I saw these watches my eyes got reeeeeally big and I had to know where I could find them. I was surprised to find that it is a collaboration between Karl and Fossil Watches which debuts tomorrow.
My personal connection to Fossil is when I was in college I was the jewelry, fragrance, and Greek merchandise (sororities) buyer for the MIZZOU bookstore (kind of bad ass I know) and I bought Fossil watches by the boatload. They flew off the shelves as fast as Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue. Fossil was definitely the “cool” watch brand at the time for college girls (in the Midwest at least). But honestly I haven’t really thought about them since.
Fossil, you now have my attention. And probably some of my money. Because I will be getting one of these watches. They have released almost no photos, but Elle.com had the one above and a silvery version. You can get the details and find locations on the WatchKarl.com website.
I’m dying to see the entire collection tomorrow.

I can’t wait. These are amazing.
That is the coolest college job! The watches are amazing. The silver one on Elle’s website is insane!

How amazing are those watches? I’ve been digging Fossil lately, ever since I stumbled upon their store in SF. In addition to watches, they have some great bags and jackets.
straight sexy.
Love the slickness of the pieces. Still not interested in buying Fossil products
Whoa! The one in the middle is bananas!

I love this line, I have seen it before and it definitely caught my eye.
A pleasant and surprising collaboration! Karl is iconic.
