Favorite Thing :: Kate Spade


I have been having a 'Kate Spade' moment for the last few months.  It all started in November when Mr. Hedin and I were walking down El Paseo in Palm Desert and I popped in the store.  I mostly popped in because I'm pretty bored with the shops on El Paseo.  There isn't really anything that we don't have at University Village - except Kate Spade.  So I went in.

Holy moly.  I was blown away.  I know about the bags.  I was obsessed at 18 when the iconic label launched and the square bag was carried by anyone who was anyone.  (yes - I had a black one)

But I'd sort of ignored the brand since then.  I went through the phase - I've seen the bags at Nordstrom since - but I thought it had passed.  Whoops.  

The store was amazing.  Super adorable displays on every wall, cute accessories piled up near the front door, and the most fabulous clothes I have seen in years.  Since then I've been stalking the website and obsessing over the clothes when ever I see them.  


Then the fabulousness continued when I saw the recaps from everyone who went to Alt Summit this year.  Not only did Kate Spade host a fabulous looking party with the Girls with Glasses, but they totally copied my balloon idea for Pearl's birthday.  


Now I'm beyond obsessed so I went to the website today to "window shop" and they have a line of NAUTICAL CLOTHES AND ACCESSORIES FOR SPRING!  What??  Can an obsession grown beyond obsessed?  Am I verging on stalker?  It's no secret that I love anything nautical and beach inspired.  But this is getting ridiculous.
