From their iconic novelty bags to their timeless totes, clutches, and crossbody bags fit for all of life’s occasions to their ultra-fun and bubbly apparel and home goods and *of course* accessories, Kate Spade truly has it all! Personally, I have been a mega fan of Kate Spade since I was a kid and my Step Mom introduced me to this incredible fashion brand as a fan herself (which I am so grateful to her for to this *very* day!!). However, like Kate Spade, you can support and love many incredible, woman-owned brands. This style guide will outline 20 of those brands like Kate Spade.

If you’re like me and also love other popular brands like Kate Spade, including brands like J Crew, brands like Banana Republic, brands like Talbots and brands like Ann Taylor, such as Lilly Pulitzer and Tuckernuck, then be sure to check out my brands like Lilly Pulitzer and brands like Tuckernuck guides. If you are looking to find ways to save on gorgeous preppy pieces from Lilly Pulitzer (or brands like it), then check out Lilly Pulitzer’s semi-annual Sunshine Sale and Black Friday/Cyber Monday deals, my list of Lilly Pulitzer Dupes on Amazon, where to buy dresses like Lilly Pulitzer, as well as other brands that are mentioned’s sales.

Mixing Prints in a Patriotic Fashion

Today, a lady approached me at the AT&T store and was so excited at the way I mixed my Lilly Pulitzer “It’s All a Dream” Ophelia shift with my custom-designed Etsy monogrammed tote in the Peel n’ Eat print about how I mixed the prints in a stylish fashion. Little did I know when I simply grabbed my tote and wore a super cute dress that I would be stylish mixing prints – I did it without even thinking! However, last weekend, I traveled all the way to Bethany Beach, Delaware and, on a day trip to the nearby town of Lewes, Delaware, I intentionally mixed some prints for a Memorial Day look.

Today’s Katie’s Confetti Style is ALL about how I styled that look. The best part?! Each piece in this look I have owned for 2+ years or was gifted secondhand!

  • Top: J Crew Factory (purchased in Summer 2017 and it’s actually a pool cover-up!)
  • Necklace: Kendra Scott (gifted!)
  • Skirt: American Eagle (given to me from my friend Kaylee in a clothing swap)
  • Clutch: Kate Spade (got it at my local outlet and it’s actually a wallet!)
  • Sandals: Kate Spade (got them at a Marshall’s in Spring 2017 while on vacation)

Little did I know, shopping my own closet can provide me with a super stylish look while also providing a story to each and every piece in it. Summer 2021 brings about some exciting and patriotic holidays – Memorial Day, Fourth of July, and Labor Day – without as much worry about COVID-19. In order to save some money for some exciting plans I have coming up over the next two patriotic summer holidays, I am glad I could find something cute to wear straight from my closet!

The question that now awaits us is: what cute finds are sitting in YOUR closet?! Go find out!!!!

XOXO – Katie <3

Kate Spade Pieces Worth the Investment

Kate Spade has always been my favorite fashion designer, well, besides Lilly Pulitzer *of course!!!*. Over the years, I have had much experience with purchasing Kate Spade items and can happily tell you that many of them are well worth the investment. Pretty much every Kate Spade piece that I own I have owned for several years now. So, today, I will be sharing some of my favorite Kate Spade pieces that are well worth the investment.

*Disclaimer: Please note that this post contains affiliate links, which means that if you purchase through one of my links, then I will receive a small commission. This commission is at no extra cost to you. Additionally, this post is not sponsored, and all opinions are my own.*

Handbags

Kate Spade has several handbags that are well worth their occasionally hefty price tags. I own at least 5-10 handbags from Kate Spade of all different shapes, sizes, colors, and styles. You most definitely cannot go wrong with any Kate Spade handbag. Below, I have listed just a few of my favorite handbag styles.

Shoes

Just like handbags, Kate Spade shoes are also a super fun, classic, and adorable piece to add to your own wardrobe. I own a pair of their sandals, flats, and loafers. Each are super great staples, too! Below, I have linked a pair of flats that has consistently been on my Kate Spade wishlist!

Go Taxi Flats: https://rstyle.me/+nOT9dX9vSnkbhvspgCarJA

Wallets

You can NOT go wrong with a Kate Spade wallet! I have owned both their wallets and their wristlets over the years and both have been amazing pieces to own. I will say though, with the wristlet, they do wear out a lot faster than the wallets and are prone to having their handles break, so be aware of that. Otherwise, you will love them. I have linked both a wallet and wristlet below.

Jewelry

Although I do not own anything but a few pairs of earrings and bracelets from Kate Spade, I am a major fan of them! The brand’s Surprise Sale site offers a variety of earrings with a ton being priced at under $25. I have purchased a few pairs in the past from this site and have surely not been disappointed. I have linked a classic and very Kate Spade favorite of mine below.

Everyday Spade Enamel Studs: https://rstyle.me/+IRt4ZCEKPxW57b7suT4D-w

Over the years, I have found Kate Spade’s handbags, wallets, shoes, and jewelry to be the most investment-worthy. At the same time, I do not think that you could ever go wrong with anything from Kate Spade. Yet, I may be just a tiny bit biased!!!
