TMBR Wood Watch Review

A few weeks ago, TMBR wood watches reached out to me to collaborate. While I enjoy such partnerships, I'm very particular about what I share with you all here because authenticity is important to me and as such, anything I share with you has to be a natural fit into my mostly classic wardrobe as well as something I'd truly recommend. After having the opportunity to wear it on a few different occasions, I can say that my new rose gold wood-face helm watch fits that bill, TMBR also has a handful of other beautiful women's wood watches. What I like most is that it's so versatile for everyday wear because the face is light and simple, the brown leather band adds a bit of a casual aesthetic but the rose gold balances it out as it adds a feminine vibe, it's also affordable at under $100. A classy woman should invest in a few different watches for her wardrobe to coordinate with various outfits. I like how this one is different than the others I already own, a great addition to my collection. Here's a look that I wore recently on a cooler California day.

It's no secret I love the weather here in the Bay Area, one day we'll get an 85-degree dose of blazing sunshine perfect for spring days by the pool, and the next we'll be back into the 60's and layering up once again. I wouldn't have it any other way-I appreciate the variety as I really enjoy wearing layers. I wore this outfit a couple weeks ago to check in on a few properties we were staging that happened to be under renovation. As much as I gravitate to heels for my professional attire there are days where I have the ability to dress down more casually and flats just make more sense in terms of safety. I've been living in these sneakers lately, especially walking up and down steep hills in San Francisco, while in homes under construction still and while on-the-go with my busy preschooler. Although I often use my phone to keep time when running from appointment to appointment, I still prefer to wear a watch, so this one has become the perfect addition to wear on more casual days.

My sweetie could tell you that I've literally been living in these skinny jeans on weekends, which you may have noticed if you follow my insta stories. I purchased them in black as well as the dark wash several months ago and wear them so often that I just bought another identical pair of each color as they're currently 40% OFF right now so it's like getting a pair for free. They have great stretch, fit true to size (for reference I'm wearing a size 4 tall). It's hard for me to find long jeans that fit like a glove in a longer length so when I discovered these which are super soft and comfortable, I knew I'd be buying them in more colors-they also come in white which is a staple for summer. For the past couple months I think I've worn this Tory Burch bag nearly every day as I love the adjustable strap which can be worn longer over the shoulder, cross-body or doubled up like I'm wearing it here. It's the perfect size, fits all of my necessities and is so versatile that I can go from a day of client meetings in a dress or suit to dressing up a pair of jeans after hours, it is the perfect classic go-to bag in my opinion.

Instagram Lately...

Hi Lovelies! I'm switching things up this morning by introducing something new. Although I typically share a more formal outfit post on Fridays, throughout the week I often snap my daily looks on-the-go and share them via Instagram along with all of the exact/similar item details so you know where to find it all! For those of you who use Instagram, come and follow along here @TheClassyWoman. I'll be rounding up my favorite pieces and looks here about once per month.

If you are on Instagram, love a good find and haven't yet registered your e-mail with Like To Know It it takes just a couple seconds so I highly recommend that you do! Let me explain what it is. How many times have you scrolled through your IG feed to see the cutest swimsuit, a killer pair of heels or the prettiest dinner plates and you're left wondering where you can find them? Let's face it, not everyone is great at replying to comments, and even if they do, a direct link to the item is so much more helpful! Be sure to sign up one time with @Liketoknow.it which you can do right in from your browser) and when you 'like' (heart) any of my LTK-enabled posts that appear in your instagram feed (which are always indicated as such), it will trigger an e-mail to your inbox with all the specifics including the photo of the outfit and all links to where pieces can be purchased. It's such an awesome tool that also saves me from replying over and over again as to where a particular item is from (I don't mind doing so but it allows you to see it instantly vs. waiting for that reply). So, that's how that works! :)

Below I'm sharing some of my recent outfits over the past weeks from my insta feed along with all of the sources below. Since I live in Florida and our 'winter' is literally 85 degrees one day and 45 the next at times, you'll see a mix of fall, winter and spring styles. Inspiration for warm temps ahead!

....

You may remember this skirt which has become a favorite and was featured in this Valentine's Day post. It's was sold out but they just restocked sizes (2-14) and it's on sale under $40! I'm also sharing a few similar style ribbed and flare dresses of varying lengths and full length lining. 

My most recent outfit post which was a Valentine's Day look included this new red lipstick! I love pairing a red lip and red nail together to enhance a neutral outfit such as black & white. My exact nail polish shade is no longer available but I've linked some similar hues for you.

I recently bought this rose quartz color cable knit sweater on sale for just $12.50!! It also comes in 4 other great colors and fits TTS. It's perfect for layering over a white tee or tank then wrap it around your waist as the temperature increases during the day. It's such a classy wardrobe staple!

These patent pointy toe tassel flats are just $31! I love a ballet flat but find that a pointed toe provides a more dressy look. Perfect for denim, skirts and shorts! Size up if you're between full sizes.

One of my favorite accessories is nail polish and while I love classic red, a french manicure and a great pale pink or nude, I equally love a splash of color to complete a look. Right now I'm wearing Flowerista (the purple bottle on the far right). Fiji (the pink bottle) is a spring + summer favorite!

This outfit is cozy and perfect for cooler days. I'm not one to leave white behind after Labor Day. White (when done right) can be worn throughout the year. I've long been a fan of Tommy Hilfiger for well-made pieces with that Americana look. While my sweater is no longer available, they are having a 30% OFF sale right now! I'm linking to some of my favorite sale sweaters above.

I recently treated myself to a few pampering gifts. This Olive fruit hair mask is amazing, I use it once per week instead of my regular condition and it leaves my hair feeling soft and moisturized. You'll notice a change in the overall look + condition of your hair (especially the ends) in just a couple treatments. I couldn't resist these Kate Spade pink lips socks. 

These 5 scarves were my most worn during fall and winter.  I tend to gravitate towards neutrals during winter as I can wear them so many ways, in spring, however I love both soft pastels and bright punchy pops of color to evoke the cheerful feeling of the season.

These comfy suede booties from Sole Society have quickly become my go-to. They sold out months ago in coffee but I was lucky to snag a pair in my size/color of choice. I'm sharing similar booties as these can be worn pretty much year round with skirts, jeans, denim shorts and even a maxi skirt.

I purchased this lace overlay tee from NY & Co. during their big sale in two colors: pink and black. Great news!! The sale is back and they're just $15 again and all sizes were recently restocked. I just wore the black version this past weekend with white skinny jeans.

This blanket wrap scarf was a steal at $17! The multi-color plaid makes it quite versatile and the perfect jumping off point for a variety of solid colors, I especially love pairing it with black, white, red or navy. The photo on the left was taken before I added a black belt around my waist. 

Before Valentine's Day, the pink + blue Hunters were on sale 30% OFF, now this green color is. 

I have wanted a pair of classic Hunter boots for a while because it rains in FL a lot (especially during the summer). I love how they offer matching boots in toddler/kids sizes too! Here is their current sale.
