Want to feast on some amazing eye candy? Get thee to Kate Spade’s revamped website. Spade, who has long been the purveyor of cute purses and accessories, has launched her new fall clothing collection, which has us in serious swoon mode.
Our hearts skipped several beats as we poured over the whimsical pieces—blouses, skirts, dresses, coats and jackets, oh my! There was so much retro charm, so much sweetness, we were instantly smitten.
Spade’s classic shapes are kissed with a certain playful wit. We’re talking bright pops of color, oversized polka dots, stripes, flowers and bows—all adorning pieces that are very quirky yet very wearable.
And the model donning the Spade creations? She’s cute as kittens as well. (Check out her endearing poses when you’re scanning the product shots on the site. They remind us of our 5-year-old selves, hitting our best ladylike stances for snapshots way back when we rocked ruffled socks.)
Spend 10 minutes on the site, and you’ll find all of the fall inspiration you need. While you’re there, be sure to take a detour into “Things We Love” in the site’s Behind the Curtain Collection for suggestions on everything from art and books to recipes and fashion.
In our sweetest shopping dreams, our closets would be brimming with every perfectly tailored piece in this collection. And we’d be waking a half hour earlier each morning just so we could mix and match and twirl and squeal with glee as we caught our reflections in the mirror. Alas, reality is cruel.
Even if we can’t drop nearly $250 on the adorable Madeleine Paulina Cardigan (though we’re sure it would be worth every penny!), we’re storing every fabulous photo in our fall fashion memory banks. Once the weather gets cooler, we have designs on purchasing a rainbow assortment of candy-colored tights to pair with the simple shift dresses we already have on hand. And we’ll be channeling the lovely face of the new Spade line as we twist our hair into high, messy buns and sport pouty red lips.
In the meantime, we’re keeping this discount code handy and bookmarking Spade’s site for future obsessive fawning. What can we say? We’re suckers for colorful, retro-inspired goodness.
