Have you ever heard the term art deco? I was bewildered when I came across with the term for the first time. The term itself is not self-explanatory. Art + deco? Is that supposed to mean art decoratives? A simple google search led me to the actual origin of the term art deco itself. It turned out that the term was initially used by the French. It was used early in 1900s. The term is used to describe any kind of art pieces that embelish traditional design patterns but produced with the latest or most sophisticated technology. That is the meaning carried by art deco.
While the French were the one who started the art deco culture, more Americans are in love with this art style. Miami, a city in Florida, is where the largest number of art deco buildings are found. This should not be surprising at all. Given that Miami has been serving as the gateway to the latin America, the demographics of the Miami population are considered to be among the most diverse in the world. Migrants from latin America countries such as Puerto Rico, Cuba and Venenzuela have made their way into Miami. Not few of them have settled for few generations now. An art deco district has been set up in Miami. In this district, you can find homes of different colors and styles, inspired by the different migrant cultures and traditions.
The Miami's Art deco culture is the inspiration behind Michele watches. Sorry guys, Michele watches are reserved for ladies only. From the name of it, I don't think any guy would want to a watch on their wrist that bears the name 'Michele'. Right guys? As they are designed exclusively for ladies, you can expect feminine watch design without compromise. This is unlike other fashion watches that are made for both men and women. If you are looking for a couple watch, then Michele watches are not for you. You're better off with other brands. I know Casio produces a special pair of lover watches every year.
Diamonds are women's best friend. Since venus is the primary market for Michele watches, they are designed to be women's best friend. Every Michele watch model is decorated with diamonds that adds sparkle and glamour the the time piece. The real genius behind Michele design team, in my opinion, is the ability to produce a watch so luxurious but yet highly flexible. The strap on every Michele watch can be taken on and off with a breeze. I was skeptical at the beginning. It was only after I tried it first hand to be really convinced that they really work.
Come on, ladies. We have to admit that we are a creature that gets easily bored with stuffs, right? That's why we have dozen pairs of shoes, dozens of dresses (that we occasionally wear) and dozens of earrings. With the flexible strap changing option that Michele watch offers, you can probably reduce the number of watches lining up in your wardrobe. Instead, you can buy few different straps and change to the one that suits your attire of the day easily.
Do you think Michele watches are great? Are you thinking of buying one? Let me know in the comments below.
