It's no secret that blogging comes with its perks, and recently I've been lucky enough to be approached by a handful of brands who want to work with me. So, when JORD watches reached out, I decided to be a little bit selfless, and instead of choosing one of their gorgeous wood watches to keep for myself, I decided to share this particular perk with Steven (that's my boyfriend for any new readers).
Needless to say, he was on board and more than excited at the fact he was going to receive a completely unique piece of wrist candy. Upon having a browse of their website the thing we both loved most about JORD's selection of watches is that they are all minimalist enough to wear every day yet they are a statement piece, adding that little something extra to your outfit.
After picking out the watch he liked best (we went for the Hyde Kosso and Gray) and sending away his wrist measurements (JORD provide you with a handy tool to help you do this if you are unsure of your size), all that was left to do was wait for the watch to arrive.
I only had to hear "has my wooden watch came yet?" from Steven every day for around a week before the postman turned up with his gift. It was immediately ripped open and on his wrist before I even managed to grab my camera to take pictures of the packaging (which, fyi, is absolutely stunning). Steven is not easily impressed, or shares my particular obsession with fashion or accessories, but honestly, he's made up with his new spring accessory, and much to his delight has received lots of compliments on his watch.
Ok, so a little feedback from Steven. After wearing the watch for a week the biggest thing he noticed was how lightweight it was - it was comfortable to wear on his wrist all day and as JORD helped to get the size just right, the fit meant it stayed in place without rubbing or moving around his arm. He also said he liked how it went with his "every day" clothes but transitioned well when wearing something smarter for a night out. Plus, it's completely different to anything he'd buy for himself, which he loves. I think that's a 10/10 in my book!
And lastly, a little note from me. Sometimes I completely lack inspiration when having to buy gifts for people - whether that be birthdays, Christmas, anniversaries or mother and fathers day...but JORD has definitely given me that little nudge I needed to look for more unique and personalised gifts for my loved ones, and hopefully it's given you a little inspiration too.
