I have been admiring the label Kate Spade New York from afar for quite some time now, so you can imagine my glee upon finding out they have just opened two stores in London! Girly and a little bit frivolous, the designs would work at a tea party or in an office.
I found myself lusting after candy pink dresses, colour pop lipsticks, squishy quilted bags as well as more structured ones, statement jewellery, boots with bows and sparkly court shoes, but my favourite thing was one extravagant... well it seems to be a cross between a necklace and a scarf, as you can see on the middle mannequin in the photo above. With a pink grosgrain ribbon tie it comprises of ridiculously soft ruffled layers. With my neck injury meaning I need to be careful to keep my neck warm I'm always on the look out for ways of doing it fashionably and wouldn't this be perfect for an evening at the opera? I was really impressed with the quality of everything as well as the design.
The shop itself was a delight to visit. Of course I've never been known to resist the allure of a hydrangea and I adore the large scale floral wallpaper! The changing rooms are also rather fabulous- what an amazing zebra print! Emma, my glamourous assistant in the photos, and I called at the store on 1-4 Langley Court in Covent Garden, which is just off Floral Street, but there's also a store at 2 Symons Street on Sloane Square. Spanning two floors the Covent Garden shop is a treasure trove of delights I'll definitely be visiting again.
