{event} Kate Spade Saturday Exclusive Preview Party

Last Wednesday I was invited to the Kate Spade Saturday exclusive preview party in New York.  So I dragged my friend Jess from work with me to check out the collection (okay, not dragged, she was very excited)!  Kate Spade Saturday launches in March and is a less expensive version of Kate Spade New York.  The line is geared toward a younger demographic with the pieces coming in bright colors and prints.  Thanks to Fab, you can shop the collection before it's officially released! They have a Kate Spade Saturday Pop Up Shop where you can purchase select pieces.

The prices will be around 50% lower than regular Kate Spade, the most expensive item I saw at the event was $170 for a dress and bag.  According to WWD, the average price point for Kate Spade Saturday will be $90 for apparel; $55 for eyewear; $40 for fashion accessories; $130 for handbags; $25 for home; $30 for jewelry; $85 for shoes; $45 for small goods; $50 for swimwear; $30 for tech, and $50 for watches.

Some of my favorite pieces from what I saw at the launch are the B.F.F. Cardi which can be worn as one color or a mix of black and blue, the Let Loose Dress that can be worn 3 ways, and a lot of the bags, accessories and home items.
At the event they had a selection of items to purchase and I picked up a set of 4 tall glasses.  We also got goodie bags that contained an adorable set of pencils; all were black and had the day of the week printed on them; except for Saturday, which was yellow, because it's #TheBestDayEver!

Thanks to Kate Spade for the invite, I had such a fun time at the event!

  2. Looks like such a cute line, I can see at least a dozen things I'd want right now; but I have to say those peg board displays seem like an odd choice. I mean, is it supposed to be like you are shopping at someone's garage sale? Just because it is a budget line doesn't mean you want your shopping experience to feel cheapened. It makes me think of Old Navy - the exposed fixtures and cement floor. Odd choice.

  3. Ok, this is good news! I really like the Kate Spade aesthetic, but don't even bother looking because I don't need more expensive addictions. Those price points aren't bad at all, if the quality is good... was it?

  9. Very cool that you were able to go to the event! I can't wait to see the line in the stores...it's a little more wallet friendly, if you ask me compared to the main line. The glasses you picked up are very cute!
