A charming Anna Kendrick stars in this Kate Spade Christmas commercial, experiencing the unfortunate event of being locked out of her apartment in the cold winter months. The 'Waiting Game' commercial shows a variety of things that Kendrick does to keep herself entertained, which includes everything from bursting into festive holiday songs to playing dress up, taking to her dog and cracking into the alcohol.
While several phone calls to what must be her landlord seem to prove useless, Kendrick finally thinks of a way that her Kate Spade purchases can be truly functional to get her out of the bind. From faux fur leopard coats to sunglasses and glittery card holders, the video serves as a clever way to show off the holiday collection with a funny and relatable skit—plus, it's shoppable.
