The best possible way to describe Kate Spade is adorkable. The brand is bright, stylish yet quirky, and impeccably packaged. I walked into a Kate Spade store last week and was whisked into a dream world where I was rich and could afford to buy multiple bags and cute dresses on a whim. Unfortunately, I’m not rich and left empty handed. But a girl can dream! Here are a few of her less expensive but totally drool worthy items:
Mini Cluster Ring, $38.
Card shark? This spade ring will be the perfect thing to wear to your next game night. (True story, it took me a while to realize there were spades on everything because it’s in the name of the brand. I just thought they had a favorite suit.)
Importance of Being Earnest Book Clutch, $325.
“I never travel without my diary. One should always have something sensational to read in the train.” This clutch could fit a small diary and your other essentials while being a great literary conversation starter. Also available in “Romeo and Juliet,” “A Tale of Two Cities,” and “Emma.”
His and Hers glasses, $50.
These aren’t geeky, but I still think they’re awesome. Perfect for those stay-inside-and-be-cozy date nights.
Ace Up Your Sleeve Idiom Bangle, $48.
Although it looks simple from the outside, this bracelet has a secret. I think wearing it would remind me of the figurative aces I have up my sleeve and give me a boost of confidence. Or, you know, it might just be a pretty bracelet.
Air Quote Mittens, $65.
I could up my sarcasm level with these air quote mittens, which I’m sure everyone would totally appreciate. Quotation marks not your thing? I’m also loving the “Hi 5” Mittens.
What I’m Giving:
Get your girlfriends off to a good start for the new year with this bangle. The inside says “This is the Year to…” and the outside says “play your cards right, lose yourself in a good book, add a twist, make sparks fly”. What a fun reminder!
