New Arrivals - Kate Spade

It's official.

I'm obsessed.

It's another Kate Spade post guys, #sorrynotsorry in advance.

And their new arrivals are labeled as a Lights, Camera, Action!, oldies cinema look! I was in love before I even looked!

Price: $448

This Olivia dress is my favorite of the dresses. Probably because it's the most colorful and reminiscent of summer, and I'm still in a summer wear mood. I love the cinched waist and the bright colors, plus it has a cute flirty skirt.

Price: $448

This Leah dress is beautiful, especially for a business setting. I love the high waisted pencil skirt and the cute tie-neck detail. If I could find a blazer of the same shade to throw over it, it would be perfect!


This Joyann dress required a front and back shot. Because as sleek and elegant as the front is...

Price: $378

...The back adds a whole nother level of sexiness to the dress. I absolutely love it! Especially that little bow right at the small of the back. Wonderful!

Price: $368

Then there's this Jazz skirt. It's beautiful, simple, and elegant. Two thumbs up from me!

Price: $458

I love this cute black purse. It's extremely sophisticated, perfect for the office! And the inside is lined with little bows. Too cute!

Price: $148

I'm loving statement necklaces more and more with each passing day, and this necklace is the kind of necklace that I would love to rock with a cute dress!

Price: $35

It's a clapboard iPhone case.. Need I say more? Love!

Price: 250

Kate Spade honestly has the best bangle watches ever. I really love this creme colored one. It would go well with so many outfits!

Price: $175

This one is really different from the bangle watches I usually like. The big face is usually a turn off for me, but I love how it's mostly black with just small details of white and gold. Too cute!

Price: $250

This Gold Bazooka one is just a guilty pleasure watch. It's gold with pink details, what's there not to love?? I'd probably never wear it, but it's cute to look at.

Price: $328

This Carrin Heel has me swooning. It would be perfect to wear to the office. Nude with black makes for a sophisticated color combination. Plus it'll go along with most outfits.

Price: $328

My favorite part about this Dijon Heel is that it has the cute Kate Spade bow at the front, but it's color choices are sophisticated enough that I could wear these with almost any suit to almost any business professional occasion. I love it!

Price: $298

Then we have the two Kalle Wedges! I love the elegance of this black one.

Price: $298

But this brown one would be perfect for a casual day, or even to wear with a cute sundress.

Price: $328

Out of everything, this one is the truest sign of an upcoming fall... But I can't be angry because this Rickee ankle boot is gorgeous! I would probably wear it with every single one of my fall and winter outfits if I owned it. Look at the cute bow on the zipper! Adorable! Plus it was made in Brasil! Can I please own this???

That's it for my favorites from the latest Kate Spade arrival. I swear they make each collection more beautiful than the last!

Ready For Summer

I had a lovely lazy beginning to my week.

After Mother's Day, life went back to normal for my family, except for the fact that I was still hanging around. My mom went back to work. Brian went back to school. Everyone had their own thing to do.

So I just chilled for a while. I visited the dentist on Monday and was a lazy butt for the rest of the day.

Whenever I get long periods of break time, I do a lot of web-surfing, which involved a lot of Polyvore for me on Monday.

I tried to keep a theme going with my Monday outfits. I have an obsession with professional clothes as you all already know, so I was purposely trying not to make business outfits. My theme was summer clothes, so here you are:


This is my southern girl look, I do live in the south after all. Or maybe it's a cowgirl look? Either way, I like it! The skirt is probably my favorite item in the whole outfit. The bolero is just there because I feel like the outfit is incomplete on Polyvore without an outerwear piece. I probably would keep it off even if it was chilly tho, the outfit is cute enough without any covering. And the hat is just the pièce de résistance to finish off the southern/western vibe of the outfit.


Here's another skirt look. It is definitely not my favorite look. I think I was rushed when I made this one. I think it's the jewelry that makes me not like it. I should have left it without the jewelry to keep the look simple, as it was meant to be. Also, the basket look and the gold don't go together. So let's just ignore all the jewelry and focus on those cute wedges and that hat that's ready for summer! 


Here's a nice and simple look. I finally picked out flats for an outfit! I guess I learned my mistake from the previous outfit. If an outfit looks best simple, don't keep adding stuff to it. Heels would have just made the simplicity of this outfit look awkward. My favorite pieces from this outfit? The adorable bracelet set from Charlotte Russe and the dress from Nine West. Least favorite? The Guess purse. It's cute, but probably not the best purse for this outfit.


After two outfits that I didn't like so much, here's a cutie. This one I would probably leave without the denim jacket, though. It's just there again for the sake of having outerwear. And look! I picked out non-heel shoes again! You all should feel very proud of me, I never wear nor pick out flat shoes. I do love how the stud earrings and the drops match so well. The studs are from Kate Spade and the drops from Barney's. And the cute case from Ralph Lauren was just a lucky find that went along so well with my outfit, I couldn't resist. I loved everything about this outfit so much. From the Sperry watch, to the cute little bow necklace, to the Chanel flap bag, this whole outfit is just lovely.


But as lovely as the previous outfit is, I have to leave the best for last. That Michael Kors off the shoulder jersey top is simply gorgeous. I would wear it all the time during the summer if I owned it. I love off the shoulder looks. Then the Dolce and Gabbana tote bag is a beautiful accessory, along with that Charlotte Russe necklace. The AX Paris pumps though? So lovely. I honestly can't pick a favorite item from this outfit. It's just so perfect! Someone please buy me this whole outfit??

(Did you notice that I finally made an outfit without outerwear?)

But now my lazy week is over and I gotta cram as much work in as possible over the next few days before coming back next week!

Kate Spade Surprise!!!

Kate Spade is having a surprise sale!!!

And I got really excited because I was hoping that there would be something there I could afford.

Original Price: $98
Sale Price: $29

There are a couple affordable things that I like, like this belt (I am including the link to the actual Kate Spade page on each item so you can better see the items in detail. Just click on the "Sale Price" part of the caption). I currently have an obsession with waist belts, and I would love to add this beauty to my collection!

Original Price: $45
Sale Price: $19

I know that paying $19 for a pair of earrings is a bit of a stretch, but I'm talking affordable here, not reasonable, Plus, they're Kate Spade bow earrings! I make outfits with these on Polyvore all the time!

Original Price: $98
Sale Price: $29

Again, not a price I would normally pay on a pair of earrings, but these look like they're real gold and diamonds, and their name is.. wait for it... Gatsby Dot Hoops. How can you resist Kate Spade earrings named after Gatsby?? I couldn't!

Original Price: $50
Sale Price: $19

This little coin purse is too cute! I would totally buy it! But, I am currently torturing myself by looking at these beautiful, on-sale, Kate Spade items that I theoretically could afford, but I won't be able to before the sale is over because my bank account is currently facing a drought.

Original Price: $60
Sale Price: $29

This could totally be a mini travel make up bag for me! I could put the lipstick color of the day, a mascara tube, and a concealer in here and be good to go for the day. Oh the possibilities!

Original Price: $85
Sale Price: $39

Now, I don't have an iPad, but if I did, a Kate Spade iPad Cover would be a must. This one is just so cute! I love the detail of the stripes with the birds over them. Click on the link above to go to the Kate Spade page to see what I'm talking about. Absolutely adorable!

Now these were the affordable ones, but I can't look at the Kate Spade page without dreaming of the day I'll be able to afford everything else.

I love everything Kate Spade, because they have an amazing sense of style, but here are some of my favorites!

Well, a lot of my favorites.

Original Price: $298

Sale Price: $149

This purse is just beyond cute! I would take it up and down all over the place with me. It would look cute with a casual or a business outfit, and the neutral colors can go along with almost any color. I am beyond in love (Christmas present anyone?)

Original Price: $328
Sale Price: $139

This one is also super cute! They also have a cinnamon red version of it, but I liked the cream one better. Plus, it goes with more outfits.

Original Price: $248
Sale Price: $79

This one is beautiful, elegant, and chic. This is the kind of purse I would take with me to a fancy party or dinner.

Original Price: $328
Sale Price: $99

This one is just awesome. I would probably never wear it, but come on, it's a Pride and Prejudice book shaped clutch! That's just super cute and quirky, I love it and wanted to share the quirkiness!

Original Price: $285
Sale Price: $119

This one is also super cute. It's also big enough to fit all my goodies inside and more. I have an extreme love for big purses, mostly because I do lug around so much stuff.

Original Price: $275
Sale Price: $119

This purse just screams CUTE at me. Pink, stripes, and a bow!!! They also have a black and white option, but that one is just too depressive looking compared to this bright and fun purse. This one would also be very much appreciated as a gift!

Original Price: $335
Sale Price: $129

Original Price: $325
Sale Price: $129

Between these two calistas, the rose one is my favorite. They're both perfect for when I need to tote my laptop around with me somewhere, or even bringing a spare change of clothes or something that requires a lot of space. I love love love these.

Original Price: $295
Sale Price: $89

Now onto the jewelry. Isn't this necklace so cute! Even the clasp for the necklace has a cute little detail! Absolutely gorgeous!

Original Price: $128
Sale Price: $29

This one I'm posting up in honor of my God-daughter, Alexa. She loves turtles, and I can never see a turtle without thinking of her, so here's one for her!

Original Price: $250
Sale Price: $150

Original Price: $225
Sale Price: $135 

Oh my goodness!! I love these so much! It is so hard to find a cute and feminine watch! I have been on the hunt for one for ages now, and I simply can't find one! One within my budget that is. These are adorable and perfect for me and I really wish they were within the budget! Waah!

Original Price: $378
Sale Price: $99

Now we're on to clothes. Look at this dress! It's so sleek and sophisticated! The lines of where it changes from black to nude are perfect, their position makes such a beautiful slimming effect! I love it. Someone, please add this to my cart!

Original Price: $358
Sale Price: $99

YES! Beautiful and chic! The belt completes the outfit with and adorable break from the pale pink and a wonderfully slimming effect. And that red trim at the bottom? Magnifique!


Original Price: $448
Sale Price: $149

Can you see the pinched waist? I love that effect! It narrows the waist down to prevent giving the dress a flat, curve-less look. My favorite part about the dress however, is that beautiful collar. Too cute! It also has pockets, according to Kate Spade, and there's nothing more useful on a dress than pockets!

Original Price: $398

Sale Price: $129

Silk, magenta, bow, and pockets, what more could I ask for in a dress??? Way too cute! I can't stop staring at that beautiful bow. Sigh 


Original Price: $398
Sale Price: $99

I love a bold, sexy red look. I love peplum. Combine the two loves, and voila, we have this dress! It's my least favorite of the set I have picked out here, but still gorgeous nonetheless.

Original Price: $698
Sale Price: $249

I know winter is over (hopefully) but this tweed coat will be just as cute in November! I love the very faded, barely pink hue of the coat, with the bold pink details in the buttons and collar. Now, it doesn't show in this picture, but on the back of the neck, right under the collar, is the signature Kate Spade bow! Eek! Too cute!!!

Original Price: $348
Sale Price: $129

Here we have sophisticated and cute office wear. I am in love with this jacket. The lines on it, the collar, the pockets, the bracelet cut, the navy color, it's all too overwhelming. My favorite detail? The line across the jacket that looks like a belt. Gorgeous.

Original Price: $298
Sale Price: $79

This just might possibly be my favorite piece of the whole set. Adorable skirt, geometric shapes, lovely colors, and such a tiny waist! Perfect! I want it!

Original Price: $228
Sale Price: $99

Here's an adorable flat! I love the contrast of the white and black with the white details on the black parts and black details on white parts. So cute!

Original Price: $150
Sale Price: $59

Rain boot! I've been dying to get a rain boot, especially with all the rain we've been having lately! This one is absolutely gorgeous, and it's covered with Kate Spade bows!!! And it has a little heel on the back to make it my style boot! This one is also on my wish list! Someone please get it for me!!

Original Price: $328
Sale Price: $149

Last, but definitely not least, there is this stunner! I love the lovely matching between the light blue bow and the dark blue shoe. What you can't really tell from this picture is that the heel is a lime green color. If you look really closely you can see. Talk about contrast! Absolutely beautiful. I'm a size 6.5 guys, just in case anyone wants to know (;

And that's it for my super long, overly obsessive, Kate Spade post. I hope you guys enjoyed, and remember, I have links for every item underneath! The sale ends tonight at 11:59 PM, so get all your shopping in now!!
