I have an on again/off again love affair with Kate Spade. The first expensive bag I ever purchased was one of her fabric boxy tote bags (back in 1999). I used it for years before passing it along. Sometimes her clothes are just too conservative/WASP-y for me, but there are a LOT of things in the current online sale that I'm seriously contemplating.

For example:
I have been wanting some colored pencil skirts. My black ones are boring me. This could be a real closet workhorse:

Angie has been touting feminine blouses with bow detailing (I'm sure they have a better name), and this is a neutral one that I think I'd wear to work a ton:

I need input on this one--I think it could be a fun look with black pants (even the turqouise skirt) but maybe it's just too precious? I'm NOT a fan of the twinset look, but I do a lot of layering at the office which tends to be cold all year long.

Finally, I love the colors of this top--they aren't ones in my closet but I think this could be great with jeans, a winter white skirt and even black pants.

If anyone has sizing thoughts, I'd appreciate it! I have selected "Small" for the tops, but if these look to be ones that would be better worn loose/baggy, then I should probably size up...
