Although I’m arguably a shopaholic, I’m still a relatively smart shopper, so even when I spot a pair of shoes or a bag that I “must have,” my instinct is to scour the ‘net for where I can find it (or a budget-friendly lookalike) for the cheapest price possible. That said, rarely will an accessory make me fall in love at first sight. The brand-new Viscid Watches from Anthropologie, however, were an exception. I blame it on the fashion bloggers I follow on Instagram – one look at the mint-and-gold face and candy-colored gummy strap, styled with an assortment of coordinating arm candy, and I was sold! Luckily, despite being from the not-so-modestly priced Anthropologie, these Baby G lookalikes are playful, chic and reasonably affordable at $58 a pop. While I’m still drooling over the mint (and even ordered it online although it’s supposedly backordered until July!), the watch comes in an assortment of equally covetable colors, like hot pink, orange, and yellow (which is more of a highlighter-bright lime shade in person)! If you’re as enamored as I am with these luxe takes on the gummy watch, make sure you pick one up before they’re gone for good!

The entire concept of “Impossible Conversations” is an intriguing one; an informal, interview-style conversation between two women whose paths never physically crossed due to the separation of decades, who share striking similarities, the first of which being that they are both Italian.
I could wax poetic about Italy, identity, and fashion, but perhaps I will save that for another post; let’s just say having two degrees in Italian gives me a bit of an authority on the subject! I digress; the exhibit showed video clips throughout of an elegant dinner featuring a conversation between Schiaparelli (played by actress Judy Davis) and Prada; which laced whit and humor throughout the exhibit, which also can be considered monuments of both designer’s signature styles.
