Kate Spade

Kate Spade's store on 5th Avenue

I love Kate Spade designs they are bright and cheerful and somewhat Preppy! All of which I really like. I just recently ran across some pictures of her weekend Hamptons cottage. Now I  like her design aesthetic even more. Let's face it all of us would love to have a home in the Hamptons. It is on my dream list. Remember that is a list that is not attainable but still fun to dream about. The same woman that designs these.......






.......Designed this cottage





All the colors I love!!

See why I love Kate Spade? How do you feel about her? Inquiring minds want to know!!

Know What I love most that is Kate Spade? Her stationary/invitation lines. They are so chic, so fab, you must check it out. I've noticed the older i become the more my style leans to a preppier look. hmmm! Great post!

She is a artist, and it shows in her home, store or a handbag...loved seeing her home, thanks.

I adore the eye popping colours of Kate Spade...always makes me sooooo happy. Those bow shoes are amazing...it looks like little Christmas bows are just stuck on the toes of those shoes..I would so love to have a pair. Thanks for visiting me the other day.xo

GORGEOUS>>> that floor is spectacular. Amazing. And I'm very much drawn to that red bed. I have this old wood bed that I hate, but I keep thinking I can paint it or something. Now I totally am!!!

I am so drawn to bright pops of color right now - it has to be bc the cold in the midwest has me longing for some warmer weather and sunshine. Your pool post had me drooling! Enjoy the weekend! Marija

I love all of the bright fresh color in the inspiration items you chose and that black/white/green room is pretty fab!

I like her dishes! I wonder which Hampton she lives in? Did the article say? I live in Southampton and I know where a lot of the celebs live, but I haven't read about her in the local press.

Kat said...

Kathysue, she is one of my favorites too! Her cottage is just perfect! I love the colors throughout, especially all the pretty green. I'm going to have to hide this post from Cait, if she saw those pink pumps we might have to defer paying off her student loans just a wee bit longer :) Hugs, Kat

Kathysue, I have something for you over at my blog so come and get it.

I believe that Kate Spade is no longer associated with her namesake company.

Beth Connolly said...

I love just about everything Kate Spade and she is one of my style icons. Anonymous is correct that neither she nor Andy are associated with Kate Spade any longer. All this great new stuff is the genius of Deborah Llloyd who is doing a wonderful job.

Wow, Kathysue! I love the cottage! I especially love the chippy white chair with the black and white bird print pillow! Thanks for sharing it with us! Happy weekend...hugs...Debbie

I love that Kate Spade truly is a lifestyle brand. The aesthetic affects every single product and even the designer's home - it's perfection.
