Brighten your Summer with LTD Watches

Summertime and bright colours go together like ’strawberries and cream’ or ‘a day at the races and champagne’. One without the other just ain’t so. If you look to the catwalk for inspiration you’ll see this year’s Spring/Summer ‘09 collections are all about pastels and eye-popping colours. Orange and purple are particular popular colours and are set to be big news in the coming months. Designers are on a mission to brighten the economy and our mood with lively hues and plenty of eye-pleasing, summer teasing colours and styles.

For colour inspiration for your wrist, look no further than LTD Watches. These limited edition beauties come in bright poster paint colours that will delight all those with a sunny disposition and a penchant for following seasonal trends. At spectacularly pocket friendly prices, LTD wristwear offers a universal design in a breadth of different colours. Yellow, baby pink and acid green are great choices for those who wish to stand out from the crowd and embrace all things colourful, whilst those who prefer a slightly more subtle approach to their wristwear may enjoy an LTD watch in white, royal blue or black, with perhaps a different hued face. Whatever your preference try to avoid the matchy matchy look that Paris Hilton seems to favour so much!

Colourful watches can add real appeal to an outfit. One idea is to match the colour of your watch face to a particular colour you are wearing to bring the whole ensemble together. Or perhaps opt for contrasting colours to set both your outfit and your wrist off to great effect. Yellow and Purple are fabulous contrasting colours and as such a yellow LTD Watch would add extra oomph to any purple clothing you are wearing. Finally for the brave fashionista’s amongst you, clashing hues can be very fashion-forward and style savvy, a pink LTD watch with a red belt for instance or red skinny jeans would be a great choice and mark you out as a real trend-setter.

Whatever the weather this summer, opt for a brightly coloured LTD Watch to supercharge your wrist with a vibrant hue and lift your mood!

New to Shade Station this week is the very aptly named ‘LTD Watches’. Adopting a clever gimmick to keep up with the ever-changing fashion forecast, LTD watches produce a number of highly limited edition watches each season. Approximately 100-150 on-trend wrist pieces are created of each design in the range and once they’re gone, that’s it folks, they’re gone forever – never to be reproduced.

This innovative concept ensures the designs always remain fresh and able to stay abreast of seasonal trends, whilst also being highly covetable.

There are universal similarities in each design, such as a magnified date window, a stainless steel case back, precision Japanese Quartz movement and a polycarbonate case and bracelet. And you can also be certain of the authenticity of the model, as each watch comes with it’s unique limited edition number marked on the back. This season there’s a colour for everyone; choose from black, white, canary yellow, vivid green, royal blue or baby pink LTD watch. Each has a different coloured face and is certain to add a splash of humour and creativity to any wrist.

Competitively priced at £49 a piece these exclusive designs are a steal and enable the wearer to stay well astride of fickle accessory trends from season to season.
