Today we are looking to Kate Spade for inspiration.
When I look at this Kate Spade collage of goodness, it makes me happy!

Here is my interpretation! I had on a gold necklace at first, but I took a cue from Kate, and threw on an orange necklace. And you know what? I liked it!
Green Shirt| GAP, sold out
Black Shorts| GAP, click HERE (sold out of black, but a polka dot option still available)
I really really liked this outfit.
Kate Spade loves her polka dots, and I love my J Crew Factory polka dot shirt (found HERE), so it was perfect to pull out for this challenge.
Fun, right?
Now that I’ve created the outfits, I thought I would highlight some of my favorite Kate Spade items (and one Kate Spade-esque item, that is much more affordable) that are out right now that I am drooling over.
First up, THIS bow tote that is available in black or white.
I am totally LOVING THIS cute cross-body bag in her signature colorful stripes.
I’ve been lusting over THESE leopard and hot pink flats for awhile now, but I just can’t make myself spend that much on a pair of shoes! Would y’all pay that much for shoes?
I am of course drooling over THIS bag and THIS bag. Such bright fun colors and so big!
Can’t afford the above bag, but still really want a bag? Check out these patent leather totes.
They are 33% off and much less expensive than the large totes above.
Click on a picture if interested.
Want a little Kate in your life, but can’t afford something big? Check out THIS wallet.

So…that’s it for our first week in the style soiree!
I had such fun putting outfits together that I would not have put together on my own.
OH WAIT!

Darling!! Love the polka dots and yellow jeans. And that striped bag is amazing.
Mix and Match Mama says
Oh my goodness! I just love, love, love Kate Spade! The green and black is so fresh and perfect for summer. And I'm obsessed with the polka dots too! I'm going right now to check out those bags…love them! This is such a fun collaboration!

I was in LOFT this past weekend and they had some great lightweight solid color button up blouses. I passed on them wondering how much wear I would get out of it but now may have to rethink it. Love this post!

Love the wedges but sending you on a mission to find the most comfortable less than 2 inch wedges out there!! I can't find any and just can't do a tall wedge 🙂
Camila says
So perfect! Love both outfits and I think outfit number 2 inspired what I'm wearing today. Now let's just hope everything is clean and not in my laundry pile! Obsessed with that bag. Great score!
Rachel says
I LOVE that first outfit. The green shirt is beautiful, and you were made for shorts!

So much adorableness in this post! I love that solid button down with the shorts, tres chic!
{Hi Sugarplum!} says
You look so great in turquoise and orange! And I did think for a tiny second, that you weren't wearing pants in the second pics. 🙂
Courtney says
The first outfit is ADORABLE! It is my very favorite outfit yet…Yea! I find that it is sometimes difficult to look polished in shorts, but you do it beautifully. I finally broke down with the wedges. I have been looking at them daily, but for some reason had not pulled the trigger, but I ordered the putty ones today and I am super excited. Thanks for your blog, it makes my day brighter!
Super GG says
It is truly amazing how much you love yourself. It shows in every word you write and every picture you take of yourself.
Katie Did What says
Oh my gosh, your little printed shorts are SO CUTE!! And that top! I'm sad it's sold out, too! You look cute as always, girl!

You look really good in your green outfit. I have a fuchsia button-up top and I also love the look of a bright button-up–it's classic and work-appropriate but not boring!

Can anyone tell me that different style and colors are available in Kate Spade jewelry? I need durable as well as comfortable pair of earrings for me.
