Too large!
I saw pictures and knew how big this bag was, but... it's kind of an awkward messenger bag size. Really cute, great quality, but the size was just too 'in-between' for me.

Really cute but runs really small!
I am a pear shape, and other KSpade dresses in a 14 have even been slightly too big. This dress I couldn't even dream of zipping - there was like a 3-inch gap at the top that couldn't be pulled any closer together. That said, this dress is SO CUTE and the fabric is a perfect weight and feels expensive in a casual way. It's so cute! I wish I could have worn it.

LOVE THEM.
They were quite large and very heavy but AMAZING quality and very trendy in a timeless way? I loved them. I wore them with a kate spade dress as well as jeans and a band t-shirt and they looked great with both outfits.

Honestly so freaking comfortable
It's 100% silk I believe - so comfortable for this TX heat wave. I wore it around the house a ton because it was so luxuriously cool. As for out of the house... I wore it to work once. It is huge which worked for me since I am plus size, the arms fit very generously and were a great length. The shirt itself was a little long and super boxy, which is definitely a look. I wore it with released-hem jeans and tied it in front. However, it kind of looks like a fancy uniform for a 1950s lady janitor or candy striper or something.

Great fabric, tight-ish arms
I am always wary of sleeves since my arms are an issue. This dress has buttons at the sleeves, so I was able to unbutton them for comfort but it didn't look great. Aside from the arms, I loved this dress. It was a perfect length, and the fabric is amazing and think and stretchy and beautiful. I am rocking a 36C and it gaped a teensy bit - as for most Kate Spade, not super friendly to ladies with a larger bust.

Feel like a trendy million bucks
I LOVED that it says "Red Valentino" in really cute script on the back. The embroidery is really on trend but fun - the eye and the florals are a little tonally dissonant but in a fashion way. I loved wearing it to work on a Friday, and I never want to send it back. The fabric is a lot thinner and lays a lot nicer than I expected. It is a wool blend so it might make some of you itchy, but didn't really bother me.

Best bag ever...
Grown-up backpack is in perfect color, perfect size, hidden magnets for closure, not-too-prominent logo but prominent enough. I wish it were not so new (not really) so I could purchase it right now!!!! : )

Comfy, see through, fun!
I kind of love these pants, but I wouldn't leave the house in them, and for that reason I am not including a photo!!! I have a big booty, and you could see all of it through these pants. They are very comfy, stretchy tulle, so I would need major spanx to make these work for me. I would caution plus size pears - they look like they are a more structured fabric in the picture, but they are like tulle free-flowing yoga pants. If you have a smooth booty and thighs, this will be a really, really fun pick for you. I love the style. There are birds on these!!! : )

So stylish! : )
Fit was nice! I am unfamiliar with Kate Spade clothes sizing; I have a quite prodigious booty but in this I think I could've gotten into a 14. As seen in my second photo, it's a little large in the shoulders and bust, but not so large that it looks bad. Very good quality, I feel like a million bucks and can't wait to look my best at work. I think this dress is great for fellow pears!
