THAT TOUCH OF BLING ... 'tis just the thing

Oh the glitter, oh the glamour! 
That one touch of bling, 'tis just the thing.
If you had to choose, which would it be: shoes, bag or jewelry?

THE CAT's MEOW

Something's going on between me and Kate Spade.  I've always loved her personal style, liked her designs and have bought a few items from her boutique over the years (including two of my favorite pieces of costume jewelry) ... but suddenly the past few seasons find myself completely smitten.  While still dreaming of those whimsical yet elegant Book of the Month Clutches, I came upon this faux fur leopard delight.  Upon inspection I found the Cat's Meow Maryanne Tote has all the makings of the perfect bag: lightweight, rests on the shoulder, lots of compartments, a contrasting, light-colored lining that makes it easy to find everything, metal feet for when it has to rest on the ground; and of course that timeless print that when done right works with virtually everything  and never goes out of style.  The only thing I don't like: the price {sigh}. But look at the lovely surprise I found in my Inbox this morning: a Kate Spade Friends & Family Fall Discount, offering 25% off any item today and tomorrow (10/15/2010 to 10/16/2010) only. Use code FALLFF10. For more details, see the website. Meow!

BOOK OF THE MONTH CLUTCH

Smart. Stylish. Fun.
The perfect accessory for Style Maniacs.
I'd love to collect a bookshelf of 'em ...

OFF TO THE ISLANDS IN A NEW YORK MINUTE

Part Two of Kate Spade's city to shore wardrobe suggestions.  Here, one tunic three ways.  Except for those fuchsia tights, I'd wear all of these ensembles.  Add a bikini to your bag and you can jaunt off to the islands with a mere moment's notice.  Shall we go?

WHAT WOULD KATE SPADE WEAR IN NEW YORK?

Given how much a website can convey a brand's personality, it's amazing how dull and downright unattractive many online shopping experiences can be.  Not so Kate Spade.com, a site so charming and fun I check it even when I'm not in the market for pretty baubles (my only peeve: music, which I don't care to have blaring at me from any site).  It just so happens that Kate & Co. also traveled to cities and shores this season. Here's her wardrobe suggestions for a New York City weekend (check back for tropical attire).
