Spring Wishlist, Part 4: Stripes! Bows! Pink!

Thursday, March 18, 2010



I practically had to wrestle this adorable Kate Spade Jillian dress away from another shopper in the store yesterday. (Turns out neither of us found our size -- which is just as well, because if you order it online, you can get 20 percent off, plus free shipping, with the code "dontfret.") You know how I'm a sucker for anything with a huge bow.

Speaking of Ms. Spade, be sure to check out this terrific article on the Spades' awesomeness in the spring fashion issue of New York mag. Neither Kate nor husband Andy have anything to do with their name brands anymore (which must be so weird!), but they're still creating very cool things.

I'm a sucker for stripes, bows, and pink, so this dress renders me powerless. What a perfect thing for spring weather! I love the scoop back... and I really love the yellow heels with it!

This dress is totally my style! I've been scouring the internet to find cheery springtime clothes to put on my birthday wishlist on myregistry.com and I think I just found another winner!

I'm a sucker for all things Kate Spade; thus, I'm desperate for this. Doesn't the presentation make you think of the perfect gift wrapped up with a pretty bow? I think I'm in love. :)

oh, I LOVE the new Kate Spade collection. I keep staring at the stuff.

I saw that aryicle! They are just incredibly creative, aren't they? But it must be so weird to have nothing to do with a brand that has your name.

We love the stripes and the big bow. Pair this dress with a statement accessory to look perfect on a spring day!

Great dress and that was a great article. I too thought it must be so strange to be separated from their once babies. But Andy's new project, Partners and Spade seems cool too.
