My Visit to Kate Spade in NYC ...

First of all let's just say, Kate Spade is genius! The company is better than ever & deserves all the attention it is getting via the blog world!  

I remember the FIRST GIFT my guy gave me....a Kate Spade purse in 1998. It was a cute black & white zebra print bag with an all red inside!  I was in LOVE with both my guy & the purse ha! Well, it was a nice gesture on his part because I can TOTALLY remember how much I adored Kate Spade! Major points for him right ladies??  


To this day I STILL have both the bag & the guy.....

 

The Kate Spade shop in NYC was one of those stores I was dying to visit - it's situated in Soho & it couldn't have been on a better day!! It was the ONLY day it wasn't actually raining in the city! 

I decided to shoot the things that caught my eye the most - from the store decor (amazing & so girly) to the super cute wallets (my favorites)! 

Their DARK floor is almost identical to the one I have in my home & the SUPER tall striped curtains gave the place a super chic feel! 


If you're visiting Manhattan - you must check out Kate Spade, it was like Disney Land .....but for fashion conscious girls like myself!  

 Below are my favorites! Especially the black and white wallet!

Have you been to Kate Spade in NYC yet?? What did you think???

My Faves From Kate Spade.....(Via Made by Girl)

Kate Spade had the cutest website with so many colors - just full of eye-candy! I currently own one Kate Spade handbag, it's a black & white zebra print with red fabric inside. It's super cute! I got it back in 1998, however, Kate Spade seems to have gotten even better! My dream handbag from their shop is the Gold Coast Maryanne (pictured below). 

What's your fave item in their shop? Do you own anything Kate Spade? If so, what?

My visit to Kate Spade Madison Ave.

Visited the Kate Spade store on Madison Avenue on the Upper East Side last week & woahhh.
It's about 4-5 floors full of hot pink & gold goodness! It was Kate Spade heaven - so pretty & well put together - I didn't want to leave. The minute I walked in,  I was greeted by the gal near the doorway & then by the neon signs spelling out in various colors, "Why hello there" & "Fancy meeting you here" - an interesting welcome don't you think? The detailing is genius as usual with the Kate Spade brand, from the clothes hangers, to the bow tie bathroom tiles!

This town home on Madison Avenue appears to have previously been a residence, because it even has a patio balcony with windows facing the outside street! My visit was very pleasant, I even ran into the manager who recognized me from my blog, SO cute!  What item did I like best?? I'd say the Live Colorfully Eau Da Parfum, it is now on my wishlist. Smells so good! You must stop by!

You can also check out my first in-depth post about Kate Spade in Soho back in 2011 here. It's super cute!

Back in May I traveled to NYC & took some time to visit Kate Spade down in Soho. I absolutely love that shop! Don't you?!?


I swear, I could spend hours browsing it. In fact I even wrote about the shop in May, and the decor has been one of my favorites ever since....Check it out here! This time around, I visited Kate Spade & the decor was just as pretty, take a look! 


Do you have a Kate Spade in your town? What do you think of the decor?
