This Stylish Kate Spade Smartwatch Is Everything We Never Knew We Always Needed

Who could possibly be fashionably late anymore now that Kate Spade has released the smartwatch of our dreams? Instead, consider yourself stylishly *on time* since you can sport the Kate Spade New York Scallop Touchscreen Smartwatch ($295) that features iconic design touches like scalloped edges and engraved detailing. Released this month and available in three styles — a yellow-gold-tone case with a black leather strap, a rose-gold-tone case with a vachetta leather strap, and a rose-gold-tone case and bracelet — the sleek watch is compatible with both iOS and Android phones.

Just like the Apple watch, the Scallop Touchscreen Smartwatch receives text and other notifications and can download third-party apps. It can also access Google Assistant and track steps, distance, and calories burned all while streaming music with the Google Play app. In addition to the Bluetooth-enabled design, the smartwatch features a downloadable and totally unique “Choose Your Look” watch app. The wearer answers a few simple questions regarding their current #OOTD (think day or night, overall color scheme, and accessory tones) and the face of the watch changes to complement their getup. SO COOL (and V. smart!).

“The kate spade new york girl is connected at all times,” said Mary Beech, executive vice president and CMO of KSNY, in an official statement. “Whether she’s wearing pink, stripes, or dots, our scallop touchscreen smartwatch will match her outfit, tying her look together with a unique kate spade new york twist.”

I didn't know I'd be saying J.Crewand Christopher John Rogers in the same sentence this year, but that's what surprises are all about! I'm always on the hunt for the latest exciting collection as an avid shopper, but this collaboration makes me feel all tingly inside. It's honestly enough to make me question my budgeting goals — it's so freakin' good!

We know J.Crew is the quintessential brand for all things cool and collected, but somehow Christopher John Rogers has managed to capture the brand's signature appeal while adding his own creative flair. Below, find the inside scoop on what led to this amazing collaboration, the inspiration behind it, and shop my favorite pieces before they sell out!

How did the J.Crew and Christopher John Rogers collaboration come about?

CJR x J.Crew

I can't help but get into the juicy details about this collaboration because it's the one thing no one saw on their bingo cards. Yet, it's such a seamless relationship at the same time! Olympia Gayot, J.Crew's creative director of womenswear and kids, says this about the partnership, "The collaboration with Christoper came together naturally, driven by our mutual love for the joy of fashion. I've long admired his work, and there was an undeniable synergy between our brands — J.Crew as a timeless purveyor of joyful, classic American style and Christopher as a trailblazer for the next generation of American designers."

Christopher John Rogers is known for creative bright, bold designs that bring out the color in whoever wears his pieces, making him unafraid to go against the grain in fashion. He most notably won the CFDA Emerging Designer Award in 2020 and the American Womenswear Designer of the Year Award in 2021. Since then, celebs such as Anne Hathaway, Gwyneth Paltrow, Rihanna, and Zendaya have been seen in his designs (via The Zoe Report).

Gayot says, "That mutual respect and shared values made the partnership feel effortless. We worked closely with Christopher at every step, not just blending our creative influences, but also collaborating on styling, photography direction, and artistic inspiration. It was essential to balance our core brand codes with his bold, contemporary vision, resulting in a collection that feels fresh, distinctly Christopher, and yet unmistakably J.Crew"

What makes this collection so unique?

CJR x J.Crew

We've seen a plethora of fall collections emerge this year, but none have captured the stylish, yet freeing energy that J.Crew and Christopher John Rogers have tapped into. Gayot says, "The collection is a joyful celebration of vibrant colors and dynamic textures. From striped cashmere sweaters to lamé barn jackets and sequin party dresses, every piece embodies a unique fusion of our two brands."

I say this a lot, but there's truly something for everyone in this collection. You'll still find tailored silhouettes, but you'll also see them in elevated patterns and fabrics. "We've reimagined classic J.Crew staples with a modern twist, encouraging individual expression and creativity while keeping them effortlessly wearable for any wardrobe. The trust we built through our shared creative vision allowed us to take bold design risks—like oversized stripes, new shapes, and unexpected textures—that turned out even better than we imagined," Gayot shares.

However, she says the most exciting thing is they "didn’t just create a holiday capsule; these pieces, though perfect for the season, are designed to be versatile enough to wear year-round.”

CJR x J.Crew

We can all agree that the past four years have been unprecedented in ways that have left us haggard at times. However, it seems this collection is touching on the hopeful and joyful nature that seems to be seeping back into society. Not only that, but there seems to be a genuine appreciation for those who are unafraid to mix tradition with modernity.

"Our goal with this collaboration was to create something that speaks to our modern consumer, who has a diverse appetite for style and design – someone who loves their tried-and-true classics, but also can experiment and play with color, unique silhouettes, and bold styling. We wanted it to appeal to both long-time J.Crew fans and those drawn to Christopher’s fearless and trailblazing Ready To Wear," Gayot says.

Based on what I've seen, it's apparent J.Crew and Christopher John Rogers not only understand each other, but their target audience as well. It's not always easy to connect the dots when designing something new, but they've truly hit the nail on the head. With that, Gayot says, "The aim was to push the boundaries of vibrant colors and patterns—hallmarks of Christopher’s work—while blending J.Crew’s classic aesthetic to make statement pieces that feel fun and accessible. By merging high fashion with everyday wearability, the collection elevates personal style and gives everyone a chance to own a special piece of designer magic.”

Welcome to November 2024! It’s official, everyone. We are cleared of the eclipse season and approaching the holiday season and Election Day. The collective is stirring with anticipation, awaiting the next course in our journey. Breathe. Tensions are especially high due to the major polarity brought on by the collective planet Pluto's re-entry into Capricorn just months ago. The tides are expected to change as the regeneration planet regresses into Aquarius for good.

You may be thinking, “What’s in it for me?” Aligning with the cosmic flow will bring more peace, understanding, and balance in your everyday life. Scorpio season is in full swing, and it beckons you to begin analyzing your internal landscape, desires, and control. You'll improve the world by grasping the importance of revitalizing your inner self. Believe it or not, you're the main character of your story, and your light contributes more than you know. This November highlights this part of your narrative. Are you ready to learn what is in store for you this month? Read on for your sun, moon, and rising November horoscope below.

Themes For Your November Horoscope In 2024

Brian Yurasits

This month kicks off with the New Moon in Scorpio on November 1st, helping you see how you're being of service to yourself and others. Due to Scorpio's vibe of death and regeneration, this lunation will also materialize the importance of “clearing out” from the old. Remember last month’s solar eclipse?

This New Moon in Scorpio extends the path for you to turn over a new leaf and actualize your desired changes. Make a move.

The communication signals will power up as Mercury enters Sagittarius on November 2nd, manifesting a feeling of warmth and hope in our messages. The dialogue exchanged will be inspiring and educational.

Share information that will benefit others. You'll experience serendipitous moments as you give back.

Our drive and bravado will turn up as the motivator planet Mars enters Leo on November 3rd. Our self-worth will drive passion and desire. Step forward and claim your desire.

Patricia Luquet

Create your masterpiece and watch it come to life. Believe.

Love will shift to rationality and structure as Venus shifts into Capricorn on November 11. These next several weeks will help you gauge more accordingly with long-term plans and practical concerns. It will also invoke a more grounded approach to romance and dating.

Slow and steady builds stronger foundations in love.

On November 15th, the Full Moon in Taurus illuminates the sky, highlighting the importance of taking the reigns through a measured approach. With the rebel planet, Uranus, in alignment with this full moon, it will stir up massive changes involving our narrative and how we are playing our part in our storyline. It can lead to impulsive moves, so remember to be intentional. The great news is that Saturn, the structure planet, is direct today, bringing more clarity regarding our direction.

Ahmed ツ

Brilliance awaits as you hold steady.

Buckle up! On November 19th, Pluto ingresses into Aquarius, settling into this future-oriented sign. Anticipate significant technological advancements, including refined artificial intelligence, quantum computing breakthroughs, renewable energy innovations, and immersive virtual reality experiences. Side note: VR Games like Supernatural(I'm a BIG fan!) are revolutionizing workouts, allowing people to exercise in other worlds while engaging with a supportive community for weight loss, endorphins, and positive accountability. As you visualize your ideal paradigm, Pluto will guide you toward the tools or necessary changes to attract your desired results. Embrace this transformation and let go of outdated constructs, paving the way for a brighter, more interconnected future.

Vlada Karpovich

Happiness and fulfillment await those willing to adapt and grow.

This month ends with the Sun in Sagittarius on November 21 and Mercury Retrograde on November 25. Sagittarius season invokes wanderlust, adventure, and growth. Remember that you'll reign this season as you remain open-minded to new concepts and ideas.

Close-mindedness and dismissiveness of others' input lead to dead ends.

As we conclude working with Mercury’s backspin this month, steer clear of making traveling plans (like booking a ticket/itinerary), launching a business, or signing contracts. Plus, it will help you streamline your messages, think through your personal beliefs, and change your attitudes towards life. Going through reflection will help you gravitate toward your desired outcomes.

Which signs will be most affected in November?

Juliane Monari

As we journey through November 2024, Scorpio, Taurus, Aquarius, and Sagittariuswill each feel the cosmic waves uniquely. Scorpios will harness the transformative energy of the New Moon to reflect on their desires and initiate powerful changes. Taurus will be called to acknowledge new narratives during the Full Moon, prompting them to take control of their path and make intentional decisions. Aquarians will experience a significant shift as Pluto settles into their sign, inviting them to envision a brighter future and release old patterns that no longer serve them. Meanwhile, Sagittarians will be inspired by the Sun’s entry into their sign, igniting a sense of adventure and growth. However, they should navigate Mercury's retrograde carefully to avoid miscommunications and hasty decisions. Allow these energies to guide you toward a more fulfilled and intentional existence this month!

Women's Taylor Jet Studded Kitten Heel Ankle Boots with Memory Foam Insole

IDK how to explain it, but I just know Emily would slay these in Paris. She'd likely dress them in an unexpected way — I'm envisioning sweats and a beret?

Target

Ivette Tru Comfort Foam Pull On Boots

Normally we'd save a pair of boots like this for apple mazes and pumpkin patches, but there's no rule against wearing them during winter. They're a universal must-have in our book because of how sturdy they are, not to mention their gorgeous brown color!

Target

We know you'll still be wearing sweater dresses during winter because we will too! They're not complete without a pair of tall boots though. You'll love how versatile these suede pair are and may want to wear them with all of your winter OOTDS.

Fur Mule Loafers

Gucci stole our hearts with their 2015 Re-Edition Women's Princetown mules, but the price tag reminded us of the budgets we've been living on. We're willing to bet you're not interested in spending over $1000 for mules, but now you don't have to! These stylish loafers are only $35 at Target, but hurry because they're selling out!

Things are heating up betweenSelena Gomez and Benny Blanco since late last year to the surprise of some, but it seems like the couple's romance is just getting started. They're not shy about PDA and posting each other on social media and pretty much telling anyone who doesn't like it to get lost. We love how fiercely supportive they are of each other, giving us so many good green flags! Here's everything we know about the lovely new couple so far.

Selena Gomez And Benny Blanco's Relationship Timeline:

Amy Sussman/Getty Images

March 2019

Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco first collaborated on the song "I Can't Get Enough" along with Tainy and J. Balvin in 2019. Though they were featured in a cute scene together, there weren't any rumors about them being romantically linked then.

August 2023

They didn't work together again until late summer 2023 when he produced Selena's single "Single Soon" with Cashmere Cat.

December 2023

Before 2023 ended, Selena started leaving comments on Instagram that suggested she and Benny Blanco were in fact together. One of the comments she left appear on this Instagram fan page and it reads, "He is my absolute everything in my heart."

Some fans weren't so thrilled to see the two together though and they weren't afraid to express their opinions. But, this only prompted Selena to leave more comments that defended her relationship with Benny.

People grabbed a screenshot of one of the comments Selena responded that revealed the couple had been together for a while. "Not mad. It’s been 6 months bb. I will always defend my friends, family and fans till the day I die," she wrote. They even shared another screenshot from Selena's Instagram Story that showed her wearing a "B" ring on one of her fingers.

It looks like Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco's relationship may be ready for the next step — that's if you ask Mr. Blanco. He appeared on The Howard Stern Show yesterday to chat about everything, including his relationship with Selena. When Howard Stern asked, "You want to have kids with Selena? Have you told her you want to have kids yet," Benny replied, "That’s my next goal, to check the box. I have a ton of godkids. I've got a ton of nephews. I love being around kids."

However, he's not in a rush and wants everything to happen naturally. All that matters is that the two of them are in each other's life. He said, "I just know that when I look at her, I just say, ‘I don’t know a world where it could be better than this.’ That’s what I always say to her.”

Selena Gomez tells TIME just how much Benny Blanco means to her — no matter what anyone else says. "My own fans, who I adore and feel like have shaped who I am, will say the most hurtful things to me about how I live my life," she says. "But he has the strength in him that none of that noise fazes him. It’s really impressive, and I just cherish every moment with him. I don’t know what the future holds, but I do know that he’s not going anywhere any time soon.”

Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco looked amazing in their Alice in Wonderland couple's Halloween costume. "Curiouser and curiouser," Selena wrote on the post, which is totally reminding us of Taylor Swift's 1989 (hello "Wonderland"!!!).

Selena wore a corset dress in what looks like slate blue with cap puffed sleeves and a tulle skirt, along with a blonde wig, black bow, and slingback shoes. Benny went all out as the Mad Hatter with face paint, a wig, a top hat, and a waistcoat. We'd follow them down the rabbit hole!

Gretchen Weiners' hair might be full of secrets in Mean Girls, but in Amanda Seyfried's new movie, her life is full of secrets. The Housemaid, based on the novel by Freida McFadden, follows Millie (played by Sydney Sweeney), who's down on her luck and in desperate need of a fresh start. When she snags a job as a housemaid in Nina's (Amanda Seyfried) beautiful home, it looks like things are finally moving in her favor. But all is not as it seems — and it doesn't take long for Millie to realize Nina's secrets are the most dangerous thing about her.

The book, which has sold over 3.6 million copies, has been on the New York Times Bestseller list for over a year and Amazon's Bestsellers list for 98 weeks (talk about popular). It was also the second-most-read title on Kindle for their 10th anniversary, so it's no surprise that the story is getting its own adaptation. Here's everything you need to know about The Housemaid starring Sydney Sweeney, Amanda Seyfried, and Brandon Sklenar.

  • The Housemaid by Freida McFadden is getting the movie treatment.
  • Amanda Seyfried and Sydney Sweeney will star as Nina and Millie, respectively, while Brandon Sklenar will star as Andrew.

There is some sex and violence in The Housemaid, but it's not as overwhelming as some other popular books on the market. One Goodreads user compares the content to what you'd watch in Law & Order: SVU or Criminal Minds. If you're concerned about one of your preteens reading this book, you could always read it first, or start a bookclub and read it together!
