-- But seriously, I am addicted.

I am not proud.
I am ashamed.
It is compulsive.

My name is Maya and I am a watch-oholic. 

Okay remember my gold watch? 

Well I started wearing it DAILY. Which resulted in a few dings here and there, nothing too crazy but I wanted to make sure that I got a back-up just in case something happened to it. Well my darling friend has a Michael Kors watch that she spent some moola on but she invested in a great timepiece. It is beautiful, it is large and in charge and I am jealous every time I see it on her cute little wrist. Well then my frugal mind got to thinking, I could invest in a REAL MK or get another "Folex" well I am in between positions at work so I decided to do what would make me happy, save money and go on an adventure to get it!

I headed over to Overstock.com which has a ton of cool watches. At first I typed in Gold Watch (women's) And then I realized that what I wanted was LARGE so I took a look at the men's and Geneva Platinum (Common brand)  And then I found him.


Beautiful
Brand: Geneva Platinum
Price: $20-30 (depending on style)


I haven't named him yet but oh how wonderful is he?
Here is the real version of the watch

Michael Kors:
$250-300
Seen at Splendora



The color is a little off but I am going to take a picture when I get it and let you know how it looks :) One more great thing about Overstock they give you a warranty deal(4.99+) so if anything happens to it I can send it back and they will either fix it, give me a new one or give me a full refund. How often do you get that option? 
- Ah wait one more, Shipping is $2.98. Seriously ah-mazing.

Now before I go any further I need to thank someone!


She started a great link party on her Facebook . I went from 5 Followers to 12 in one day. I felt like I was writing to two people and now I am even more eager to keep this up. More to come and maybe a giveaway? 
Question 1: Who is interested?
Oh and Miss Mommy is extra amazing because she is from Australia!! I am from California and I personally think basically any state is better than this state mainly because we don't have accents! 
Question 2: Where is everyone from!?

-- No excuses blog like a champion

Okay so basically TON's of things have been going on, Birthdays, Bridal showers, Bachelorette Concert, and a Wedding.
Well the wedding was BEAUTIFUL and I might show some of the beauties we made for it. But in the mean time I have developed a new love... more watches yikes!!

Okay so here are my newest additions. And here is the thing, I paid $10 for each of them. Gotta love a new accessory at an amazing price. So here we go.... and yes I named them myself.

The thing about watches is that they can be kind of awkward if they don't match perfectly. Here is a little fact about me. I love awkward moments, live for them even. I don't care if my outfit looks outlandish because I am the one that is wearing it! Now, don't get me wrong I am not a "person of wal-mart" or on anyones "team" I just like to wear what I like to wear and for the last few months it has been watches.

I am going to try my best to update my blog 3 times a month. I get a LOT of deals on all sorts of things (even practical things like...a Smog Check!)  and feel like I have been cheating on my readers. Forgive me. I am back and ready to buy write.

So long for now.
