Sharing the Kate Spade surprise sale that just started. They pop up every month or so, but this one is great timing for graduation gifts and summer internships and first jobs! [show_shopthepost_widget id="2675678"]

As much as I love a super fun and quirky bag, there is something so right about having one go-to bag. The classic bag that you know you can count on to be a staple in your closet. I'm partnering with kate spade new york to feature their ridiculously smart convertible handbags. With these clever features, you can turn your classic bag into one that has some extra personality... and then back again. So for this post, it looks like I have three different bags... but it's one with a couple of accessories. In the personalization shop, you'll find everything you need to make a bag really yours. Start with the bag and a cover, or two. Swap in a different strap. And add a charm and/or a sticker! [show_shopthepost_widget id="2650305"]

While I was packing for Charleston and then repacking for Bermuda, I was getting excited for all things summer. (Never mind the fact that it's still quite chilly out.) Including straw bags. I forgot to pack one for Charleston and ended up borrowing one from Sarah. I had meant to buy it and then completely forgot. Have to add it to my cart now! Below are some fun and classic straw bags for every occasion, whether you're heading out to a soiree or to the sea. [show_shopthepost_widget id="2482351"]

I am obsessed with this outfit. It's not something I could feasibly wear as an everyday look, but I kind of wish I could. It feels like I can conquer the world in the matching tweed. Luckily each of the pieces can be mixed and matched with my existing wardrobe to create different options that I can wear more frequently– like the cropped jacket with a pair of black pants. Every year my love for kate spade new york grows a little bit more, and these scallops have taken that love to a new level. [show_shopthepost_widget id="2444431"]

My mom just texted me to say that she checked out the Kate Spade Surprise Sale and found a few things she loved. I'm currently stuck in the airport waiting for a delayed flight... but wow, everything is super cute. Especially with Valentine's Day right around the corner, it's the perfect time to treat yourself to something cute. (Or send this post to a significant other to drop a not-so-subtle hint.)

There's been quite a few Kate Spade Surprise Sales going on lately. A lot haven't been that great so I skipped posting about them besides a tweet or two. But the one that launched this morning is extra amazing. So many great handbags!!! My very top picks: a great crossbody for going out, a leather backpack, this bow back dress that works year round, this pink tweed coat with a perfectly placed bow, and the classic "all wrapped up" pearl necklace featured below.

I've been carrying my Longchamp backpack a lot lately. It's just big enough for an iPad, a camera, and my phone. Basically, just the essentials I need while I'm out and about. There's something so convenient about having a backpack over a handbag; it makes life so much easier just to toss everything in and be hands-free. (Plus it's easier on my back when it gets a little heavier!) I rounded up a few really great looking backpacks. Some would work for school (like the Kate Spade bow one, which also comes in a gorgeous hot pink) and others are perfect for travel (like the satchel backpack) and others are a great option for work (like this leather backpack that fits a laptop). None of these backpacks would look like you're off to kindergarden– they're chic! [show_shopthepost_widget id="1898231"]

I've been on the hunt for a clutch for a wedding I'm attending and while searching, I found this amazing Clare Vivier look-alike clutch. For $25. Twenty-five dollars. When I posted this clutch a couple of months ago on here, I got so many emails asking for something similar but less expensive. While I still think the real deal is worth it (the leather is so dreamy), this clutch is such a good deal I couldn't not share it.
