Colorful watch faces are an arm candy trend we can get behind, and Michael Kors just took it to the next level. Just in time for summer, the brand is putting a splashy spin on its bestselling Michael Kors Runway LE watches, done in eye-catching hues. After launching this week, the collection has proven itself to be a hit with shoppers, with the Deep Pink colorway already out of stock.
Crafted in stainless steel, the Runway LE watches are dipped in bright, seasonal colors, featuring a monochromatic dial with chronograph movement. (They’re also water-resistant up to 100 meters, making them perfect for poolside adventures or snorkeling.) The hues, including Deep Pink, Santorini Blue, Spiced Coral, and Pear Green, are reminiscent of bright and sporty ‘80s accessories, and on-trend with the vibrant shades we’ve seen on recent runways.
These watches are an easy entry point into adding a pop of color to your wardrobe: We think the Pear Green is an edgy addition to grays and neutral outfits, and works with rich dark reds without veering too holiday. The Spiced Coral is complimentary to the apricot-like Pantone color of the year, and the Santorini Blue is the perfect way to pump up summer whites. If bright colors aren’t your thing, they’ve also created a ruby-red version, which reads more muted, and happens to be of-the-moment with the red trend we’re seeing this spring.
