Hold Your Money

My latest obsession? Cute money holders from Urban Outfitters. My only wallet at the moment is a kate spade zip-up, and I really want a "real" wallet for college.

These hinge wallets have been everywhere. Forever 21, H&M, Urban Outfitters, Wet Seal...you name it, they've got a wallet like this one. I personally love this watercolour style print, because it reminds me of a Monet painting. For me, personally, I'm looking for a kiss-lock wallet, and this has more of a hinge-style closure. $20.00


I really like this wallet. It's a full wallet size, the colour is fun and punchy, and the twist lock on it is just a great added detail. I love closure details; kiss locks, buckles, and twist locks are always fun for me. $14.99


I would get it, but...isn't this cute little coin purse tempting? I love the contrast between the girly pink and the zipper flowers. Sigh, if only this was a full size wallet. $19.99

Kiss Me, Kate!

Imagine my pleasant surprise when I woke up to sun streaming into my window, stretched, washed my face, brushed my teeth, and went to check my email, only to find...

...that there's an additional 25% of all sale items at Kate Spade. What a great start to the day! Anyway, here are a few of my sale picks, with their brand new prices:

Classic Noel Tanya, $33.75
This one's great if you just want a little piece of Kate.


Pop Clinton Street Remy, $81.75
It's always great to get wallets in punchy colours, because you don't have to worry about them matching with everything.


Katy Ruth Cardholder With Ring, $59.25
A great price for a little wallet! Though it may just be a cardholder, you can definitely use this as a small wallet...and you can even attach your keys. This is another way to get a little piece of Kate.


And, in my own shopping cart...

Katy French Wallet, $66.75
Though this may resemble the above item except with an extra $7 tacked on, it's actually a full wallet as opposed to the cardholder depicted above. I love the handy 4" by 5" size (rounded), and I love the punchy red hue. Did I mention I love the price! I am so long overdue for a new wallet...

Kate Spade Private Sale

Today, I was compulsively checking my Gmail account as always, deleting what little spam makes it into my inbox, when I came upon a little gem called the Kate Spade private sale.

These cute pink flats with a "ks" logo on the front immediately caught my eye. They're like the cutesy version of the Tory Burch flats, and with less overexposure. At $159, they may not be the cheapest, but they're high on my wishlist.



I'm also desperately in need of a new wallet, and this simple black wallet (also comes in green) is only $79 -- a great price for Kate Spade. I'm definitely considering buying this, but I think I'm going to wait it out, since there have been new additions to the sale since I checked this morning.

I would definitely check out Kate Spade's website ASAP if I were you...the normal sale has some great finds in the handbag section, as does the private sale. But make sure you love whatever you're buying, because it's final sale.
