The black steel watch, valued at $650, follows a previous collection by Rowland which included rose gold plated steel faces with sapphire crystals, one with a pink leather straps and another with blue. Both retailed at $995.
Rowland, who with husband Tim Witherspoon, are expecting a baby boy this fall, sat down with Zorianna Kit to talk about the watches, her pregnancy and gave an update on what's going on with her music, film and fashion careers.
Zorianna Kit: People wear watches for functional purposes, others for style purposes? What's yours?
Kelly Rowland: For me I love the style. The pink watch, for example, is a nice pop of color and a statement piece. But they serve as both. There are people who are obsessed with their watches. My husband is one of those people. Some men are watch connoisseurs.
Kit: Were you familiar with TW Steel before you became a spokesperson?
Rowland: I love big-faced watches so one day I took my best friend's TW Steel watch and wore it. The next thing I knew we were being introduced to the TW Steel family.
Kit: Are you already getting other ideas for future designs?
Rowland: Yes, I want to make him (points to pregnant belly) a baby version of TW Steel. I'm actually bothering them about that now!
Kit: He's not even born yet, but already he's influencing you! What other ways are you being inspired by him?
Rowland: In shopping for my baby boy, I'm noticing the girl section has way more stuff than boys. So down the road, I'll be definitely designing some really cool stuff for little guys.
Kit: Anything for yourself?
Rowland: I love lashes, so I'm in the process of starting a make-up line, beginning with lashes. When you look at someone, you go straight to their eyes - the window to the soul. Lashes are another moment in beauty that needs to be expressed. My make-up artist and I are putting that forth.
Kit: How has your personal style changed over the years?
Rowland: When you're young you tend to throw something on to be cool or to fit in with a trend, when you should just really wear it for you. Style is something you feel. It's about not allowing something to wear you - you have to wear it. That knowledge comes with age. But I've always been daring when it comes to style. I'm not afraid to try something new.
Kit: This is your first pregnancy. What's your pregnancy style?
Rowland: I like things to be fitted so I haven't strayed away from that. I like my fitted dresses with cute boots or heels. I still like to feel sexy. When I'm at home I like to be comfortable so I'll wear a huge muumuu. But as far as dressing up, I want to feel like a woman. There's no better time to feel like a woman than now!
Kit: What's happening on the music front for you these days?
Rowland: It's still in development. I've been in the studio going through all these different songs and styles, and been inspired by different things. I go to art openings and concerts. If I buy on iTunes, I love the fact that there is a little blue diagram to say, if you like this you'll love this. It's about turning myself on to something new.
