Stripes.
Love ’em! Tabs and I both love stripes. He likes ’em because they go with his fur. I like ’em because they’re just so…I don’t know, cheerful?
What can I say? I have a thing for stripes…
Like today’s 12 Days of Giveaways prize, the Sweetshoppe Stripe Small Natalie Cosmetics Case by Kate Spade. One look at that pink and red striped pattern and I smile. 😀
Can’t help myself.
And the stripes aren’t the only cool thing about this bag. It’s also roomy. Plenty roomy. Roomy enough to hold at least two pounds of makeup.
More deets…
- Coated faille with laminated cotton twill trim
- Zip-around closure
- 14-karat light gold-plated hardware
- Wipeable, durable nylon lining
- Kate Spade New York signature
- 4.7″h x 7.2″w x 5.3″d

Oh my hair is a hot mess…. It’s called ‘styled so toddler can’t rip it out’ 🙁
I prefer my eggs scrambled
Hi, I prefer my eggs scrambled
Is it just me, or are apples particularly delicious this time of year?
Neither polka or stripes but comparing both I’d say stripes. But polka for nails.
Polka dots all the way!! Stripes are close second!! 😉
Thank you for all these wonderful giveaways!

I’m carrying the too faced moisturizing lipstick (that you reviewed on your site this fall or summer) and a new Model & Co. lip gloss I received through Birchbox. I really like both, but do wish the too faced lipstick had better staying power and didn’t dry my lips out so much.
I only like toe socks on extra cold days!
This is the prettiest bag so far!
I’m currently LOVING Jack Black’s Mint lip balm and Korres Pomegranate lip butter!
I really like polka dots!
My bf calls my hair “Hermione-chic” 🙂
Fresh sugar lip balm in my purse right now, I love it!
It’s pink, red, and gold. What more could a girl ask for?
On a side note, See’s Peanut Brittle is AMAZING<3
I have kittens (as of a couple weeks ago), and it’s giving me a whole new level of appreciation for Tabs!

Do you know I met my husband online? I was in Poland and he was in the US 🙂
I LOOOOVE Kate Spade. I’m going to buy one of the iPhone cases – but I can’t decide between polka dots or the heavy lashed eye one. 🙂
I have a ton of lip products in my purse right now (probably 15+!), but I keep reaching for Bobbi Brown High Shimmer Lipglosses in Naked Plum, Citrus, and Bellini!
Red and pink and Kate Spade? Love it! I like my eggs scrambled and last count I had 21 (yes 21!) lip products in my purse! Glosses, stains, balms etc. As one youtuber put it I am a goo hoarder!
Pro-toe-socks here. Not a sockist, I love all socks. Anytime, anyplace. Except for when it’s hot.
I love polka dots!
I love my Too Faced kabuki brush. Also, I cannot stand eggs (I have a irrational fear of dairy products and rarely eat them).
I love both stripes and polka dots!
Hi Karen,
I love polka dots and stripes, but by going through my closet I have LOTS of stripes and one polka dot blouse, how weird.
Thanks for the giveaway!!! kisses for Tabs
Oh my, these bags keep getting cuter and cuter! No eggs for me but I do enjoy a tofu scramble.
Love the bag!
I always give my pets gifts, for Christmas I got them each matching little polo shirts in different colors. so cute!
I always have at least 3 lip products in my purse at any given moment. Right now I have MAC Angel lipstick, Viva Glam VI SE lipglass, and Victoria’s Secret Beauty Rush lipgloss in strawberry fizz.
I always have strawberry carmex or kiehl’s lip balm in my bag with a pink lipstick of sorts.
I can’t wait to see the Chanel Spring collection reviews! 🌸🌷🌺
I like turtles!
Polka dots and sunny side up eggs
I think its time for a new makeup bag =)

I prefer stripes. 🙂
I like polka dots and love my eggs well done 🙂
I love my eggs scrambled!!
I LOVE stripes. I didn’t realize how much I love them until I saw that most of my winter sweaters are striped.
P.S. I like my eggs soft-boiled 😉
I have all my lipsticks and glosses separated by color into 3 different makeup bags! I have a lot!
Polka dots fer sure. But I’m a sucker for classic black and white stripes.
mmmm….eggs over medium with pan de sal!
I would love to have this bag to take on vacation
Im a stripes kind of gal and I love my eggs any way I can get them:)
Poached eggs for a veggie eggs benedict, please!
I just bought a wallet in this color combination. Even though polka dots are my first love, I still have way more striped things (easier to find, usually).
I prefer polka dots, & i’ve always loved Kate Spade but so far have only been able to afford a pair of glasses by her. I’d love to add this cute bag to my “collection”! 😉
Ugh, I hate licorice, no matter the color.
Lovely blog!
I have a serious soft spot for stripes!
You just can’t have to many makeup bags!! Happy holidays
Wow, this case is gorgeous!
I love that Catfish show!!! I met my husband online….luckily neither one of us were cat fishing each other 🙂
I always wondered what fake snow is made from, like what they use on tv.
red licorice
no eggs for me. liquid chicken 😛
Happy Holidays Everyone!
polka dots AND stripes!
I lean towards stripes for bottoms, and polka dots for tops!
random thought. gnocchi in soup? 😀
I don’t discriminate between polka dots and stripes…I love both. If you really think about it polka dots is such a weird name (polka?). I wonder where it originates from.
Red licorice never ever black.
Love love love
I just voted for x-factor!
These bags are gorgeous!
I’ve been wanting a new makeup bag, and this one is gorgeous!! Thanks for hosting the giveaway!
Both my cats already have catnip toys in their stockings!

Toe socks sound like a great idea at the moment, my toes are freezing here!
I love scrambled eggs! Can’t eat them any other way!
tabs is the king of all kitties~
Polka Dots!
Stripes!
I prefer stripes to polka dots. I have ever since I was 5 or 6, and I’ve never known why.
oh lord…stripes are my weakness!
oh snap I’ve been wanting a kate spade cosmetic bag for toooo long!
BANANA!
I ALWAYS get my kitties gifts and other people’s cats. I can’t help it! I wanna share all the cool kitty stuff with everyone.
nice. love the giveaways!
Stripes over polka dots. my friends make fun of me b/c I could probably survive a week on striped items in my closet; there are that many!
I like my eggs over medium and lately I have to stop myself from getting my cat gifts.
My most favorite lip balm is always in my purse. It’s the Yelp balm from Yelp. It’s my holy grail and it’s always FREE!
Wow I just bought Little Miss Matched socks and have been styling all week long!
The weather here in Whistler is insane. SO much snow. 🙂
Polka dots, checks and stripes, YIKES!
Just when I thought I was immune to romance & lovey-dovey, along comes a beautiful man who makes me laugh & blush & get nervous butterfiles all at once. And wouldn’t you know it? He happens to be an old friend.
Kate Spade always makes the cutest bags! I love the color combo and it looks like a great size too.
Cute stripey bag!
Surprised by my best friend tonight. We had a great time. 🙂
Scrambled please! Although I do like sunny side up as well. :3

Pony tails, most days.

My hair sucks today. Uncooperative bangs.

Black and white striped sweaters! Oh yeah. Getting all specific on you.
I always take my eggs scrambled and never any other way!
mascara is only thrown out when I’m darn good and ready!
I prefer polka dots. 🙂
I can envision a walk-in closet having wallpaper in the same stripes and colors as this makeup bag. Something loved by Carrie Bradshaw or Taylor Swift.
This is the prettiest bag so far!
I’m a stripes girl all the way!
Always have a Stila Smudge Stick and some form of balm/gloss/lipstick!
It’s that coffee and a good read kind of day

I prefer stripes over polka dots. I eat eggs maybe once or twice a year. I LOVE red Twizzlers. Time to go do some more wrapping..
The make up bag would be very useful for me, thank you.
LOVE this!

Polka dots….scrambled eggs and viva glam vi.

Polka dots always and forever!
Hi Karen! Currently loving my Laura Mercier Lip Glace in Baby Doll!
I love Kate Spade – her designs are modern yet somehow classic.
Polka dots are preferred by my elegant Mantle Great Dane, Lady Godiva. She sports the dots on her perfectly pink necklace as collars are for boys. My son likes stripes and I adore anything that makes me look thin and glamorous. In my handbag, I have three Burberry Lip Glows. Oh yes! I prefer my eggs scrambled(by The Rock-dare to dream).
i love boiled eggs =)
Have you seen PurseN’s makeup bags? I just got the classic for my handbag. They’re very nice. Wipe clean nylon on the outside and thick clear vinyl on the inside. Lots of little pouches, zipper pockets, etc.
Yes, I totally buy my pets presents! They get a stocking of goodies 🙂
I’ve dated a guy I met online but it turned out to be a total disaster…never doing it again!!
I like scrambled eggs.
Love love love! <3
Perfect make up bag!
Soft Boiled eggs!
i’ve dated way too many people i SHOULDN’t have from the internet :)…… i’ll stick to real life, thankyouverymuch
It’s so cute!
I love all the Tabs pics!
What are you getting Tabs for Christmas?
Eggs over easy!
Jouer Lip Enhancer is probably my favorite gloss, but I love Tarte lip tints too! The ModelCo lip glosses are pretty awesome too!
pretty!
cute!
Have Fresh Sugar lip balm and MAC Cremesheen and Dazzleglass.
Thanks for another great giveaway opportunity, Karen! 🙂
I can’t stand eggs unless they have cheese on them. Is that weird?

Currently obsessed with Dior Lip Glow… and snuggling with my Basset Hound Taylor.
One bag is cuter than the next. This is my current fave. I’m a stripes fanatic. I love red licorice. I only store my lip glosses standing up because I am anal and fear they will leak if on their sides. Why does lip gloss have to be so sticky? One of the questions for our time.
Toe socks makes my toes feel isolated from each other.
So many giveaways lately! Let’s do this, probability!
Ohhhh I love this color combination, so me! 😉
Olive and Fern, our pups, have stockings up next to ours. They always get toys and treats 🙂
Poached, Please! 🙂
Poached, please!
I totally saw Britney Spears at Ulta today. It had to be her!
Thanks for the giveaway!
Black licorice, especially the chewy, soft Australian kind!
This case would be perfect to take with me during my study abroad next semester!
Polka dots on clothes, stripes on anything else 🙂
I love polka dots AND stripes, but I think chevrons have my heart!
this is so cute
Awesome give always!
That’s one lovely makeup bag
This past month I’ve been loving the Korres Quince lip butter. This is going to sound odd, but after applying the balm, I like to take the remaining product on my finger and use it as a natural cheek tint! The texture is definitely more moisturizing than any other cheek product but I find it to be fine for me since my skin gets dry in that area. The waxiness also gives a tiny bit of a glow. I like the idea of illuminated skin but have yet to find a natural highlighter with more of a sheen and less of a shimmer. Gettin’ crafty with makeup is always fun 🙂
Matches my Kate Spade Twirl perfume. Would love to win this 😀
I want to get my cat that felted cat cave you posted earlier in the week! It gets really cold in my apartment and I think he would appreciate it :3
I really do like cheese!
POLKA DOTS!
K-Money,you are killing it with these giveaways!
Polka dots all the way but this bag is just sooooo pretty!

I married my only Internet date! Shhh…just don’t tell anyone! No one knows how we met! I was very lucky after being married to a toad for 13 years, I found my Prince Charming!
