No one does bored better than Anna Kendrick.

The actress, who turned in one of the most amusing ad performances of the year for Newcastle, is back for more comedy in this seasonal spot for Kate Spade, in which she returns from a day of holiday shopping only to realize she forgot her apartment keys.

This would be irritating in real life, but Kendrick takes it in stride—using the unexpected free time to drink champagne, loudly sing holiday jingles and of course model some Kate Spade clothes for her dog.
