Kate Spade: Bows

I have always been obsessed with bows.  You can thank my mother for putting them on my head as soon as I had hair to hold them. Kate Spade always uses bows in the best way and this season is no exception – here are some of my favorites!

Fur Earmuff Bow Headband – As we have established, I am not a fan of how cold it gets in New York when winter comes! But with these adorable earmuffs, I might be able to make an exception.  I feel like this is so Blair Waldorf, classy and chic, I love it!

Lanise Boots – OBSESSED with these booties, the bow is perfect and they are just too cute.  The heel is the perfect height and the pebbled leather looks beautiful.  These are booties that would be perfect for any occasion.  Tights, leggings, jeans, or bare legs, these boots will look good anyway you style them.

Funnel Neck Puffer Coat – Oh. My. Goodness. This coat. Kate Spade has taken the puffy parka (an essential in the city) and turned it into something I actually would LOVE to wear!! This is so stylish and I am so impressed she was able to take a shapeless necessity and turn it into something classy and cute.

All The Trimmings Bow Gloves – Another winter accessory done right! I love the black and white, and the perfectly placed bow will look great with a cute pea coat as the weather continues to cool down.

What's In My School Bag?

I have been back in school for about a month now and I am enjoying being back on a schedule and keeping busy.  Though sometimes the stress takes over, for the most part my classes this year are exciting and interesting.  I don't mind going because I enjoy the lessons and the professors are great.  Three days a week I have studio acting classes that last all day, the other two days of the week I am on campus and in academic classes.  It is really nice to interact with people in different majors and have an opportunity to take different classes. I thought I would show you what I carry in my school bag on the days I have academic classes! 

I use my Longchamp Le Pliage Nylon tote as a book bag since this year all of my text books are online. Cute and versatile - I got it in red.  It's a great size, holding everything I need comfortably.  I also love that it's nylon so I don't have to worry as much if I get caught in the rain.

Kate Spade Surprise Sale

It is always so exciting to wake up to an email about the Kate Spade surprise sales! Last week they had one, and I got the cutest shirt through the sale on sale. I couldn’t wait to share it with y’all! As soon as I saw this shirt I knew it was perfect for me, I love stripes and the hot pink accent is 100% my style.  It is called the Roanne top and it is cream and black striped with hot pink writing declaring, "Mon Amour." on the front. Originally $148 (for a t-shirt, crazy, I know) but on sale it was reduced to $35, I simply could not resist! It is cotton but the fabric is heavy, which I love because it will be perfect for those cool New York nights, with one of my favorite vests of course. Long sleeved and super comfy, I am so excited to wear it soon!!

Lust List

Shopping is a weakness of mine, I love to browse and check out all of the new products (who doesn’t?) To keep myself from going into debt, I will write down things I am obsessed with and save them for birthday or Christmas presents (that way when family members ask I can give them an idea of things I would love!) Here are some things I’ve been lusting over lately.

Kate Spade Eat Cake for Breakfast iPad cover – The Eat Cake for Breakfast tote might have been my favorite Kate Spade bag ever, it’s not sold anymore and if I find it somewhere you best believe I will be buying it ASAP! Since that might not happen, this iPad cover can give me my fill of the adorable design. I was so happy they brought it back!

Marc Jacobs Daisy Eau So Fresh Delight Fragrance  – I love Marc Jacobs perfume, I wear the original Daisy and Dot all the time.  The newest Daisy scent is so nice! It’s more floral, very light and fun.  And the bottle is super cute - I can’t wait to get my hands on it!

Roses de Chloé Fragrance – Another floral scent, can you catch a theme here? ;) I think perfume is a great gift, especially if you know a friend or family member loves a particular scent.  I have always loved the smell of roses and this perfume is so fresh and delicate, perfect for any occasion!

Frends Headphones – I have seen these all over Instagram and they look amazing, I don’t know how great the quality is but they sure are gorgeous to look at! I especially love this pair, made in collaboration with Bauble Bar.

What have you been lusting over lately?
