Kate Spade

Okay, so I've really been into the stylings of the designer Kate Spade as of late. She has such a unique spin on things, with a little bit of '50's and '60's influence too. I just can't get enough of the sleek tailoring paired with beautiful fabrics and finishes. It's tasteful and grownup clothing for women that isn't frumpy or matronly. And let's be honest, I'm moving into a period of my life when shopping for Forever 21 isn't gonna cut it. As I enter the "adult" world (grad school, job, etc) I realize that my wardrobe needs to be functional, well tailored, and sophisticated.

All too often, I live in jeans, flip flops, and layered tee shirts. It's all well and good while I'm a college kid, but that phase isn't going to last forever. My wardrobe needs to follow. So I've just been inspired by Kate Spade's style as something that I want to try and emulate. I mean, I don't have the financial resources to afford her pieces, as they run around $300 - $400. But I'd like to take that inspiration that she provides and use it for when I buy new pieces of clothing.

Wanna take a look? I thought so...

How cute would this be with a cardigan and pearls?

What a chic dress!
