Digging into your significant other’s wardrobe for a style update is nothing new. And neither is dressing as though you actually have a significant other. (We feel you. The dating scene is brutal out there. But we digress…)

The boyfriend trend is said to have exploded when Marilyn Monroe first wore a pair of masculine-looking jeans in the 1950s. And juxtaposing your feminine features with distinguished men’s styling has been a look ever since.

Here’s how to get the look and style your boyfriend watch:

MAKE THE WATCH PREPPY

Boyfriend dressing works especially well if you like preppy American style. And no one does all-American prep better than Tommy Hilfiger. Tommy Hilfiger celebrates the essence of American style with a modern twist. Layla is one of the brand’s most iconic watches, featuring elegant lines, a trio of sub-dials and a mesh stainless steel bracelet. Its understated look will elevate an everyday outfit to a classically chic statement. 

SWITCH IT UP

The Tommy Hilfiger women’s watch collection also offers various other styles in plated silver and gold options and solid stainless steel for all occasions. The iconic silhouettes are embellished with crystals or a white pearl stone set in each piece, all finished with the iconic Tommy Hilfiger logo. 

Watches are available at selected Truworths stores.
