My American friends (you know who you are) all find my obsession with this label rather amusing - I am like a kid in a candy store with this amazing brand. Kate Spade is the Anya Hindmarch of New York. Self made success by a very driven woman - with the clear goal of creating a classic, functional yet incredibly stylish leather-wear range. Which has driven a just as successful clothing line.
Her stuff is so fun - and built to last. After a number of not so subtle hints, my boyfriend bought me a fab purse and clutch from there for Christmas for me - which I am obsessed with. Kate uses colour and sophistication as the key words to her collections - with a little bit of fun thrown in. Think Blair Waldorf mixed up with Zooey Deschanel and you've got the idea. For AW12/Fall12 Kate's gone all Parisian on us, I love the T-Shirt (above). Check out the full collection
