Saturday's here!

Well, not the day Saturday, at least, not quite yet.

I'm talking about Kate Spade's little sister line, Kate Spade Saturday, just launched today. Brick-and-mortar stores are currently just in Japan, but it seems like other locations will be opening soon as well.

Until we get some of those stores States-side, we can 'window-shop' online to our hearts' content. Kate Spade Saturday offers relaxed, fun, and chic styles, playing off the love for colors and graphics that is the hallmark of its big sister line. There are clothes, accessories, and home goods. The price point is also a bit friendlier, though from habit, I'd still wait for a good sale. :)

Here are some finds that caught my eye (all images from Kate Spade Saturday online, at www.saturday.com):

Shirttail Tank in Signature Zig Zag

 I love the bold, pieced-together stripes here. They are flattering for the figure and provide a great 'pop' - on its own, under a blazer or cardigan, or layered with another tee. It's 100% cotton that looks substantial. At $30, not a bad price at all for a great statement piece that can be worn year round.

Half-Circle Scarf in Abstract

 

It's a bird, it's a plane, it's...a half-circle scarf! The print here is beautiful, and I bet it's sneakily versatile in ways we wouldn't normally expect. It can be a scarf, tied many ways due to its size - 33 inches (height at center) by 64 inches (width). It can also serve as a wrap/sarong for beach days, and I bet you can wrap and tie this baby around yourself as a halter top. Ah, the possibilities. 100% cotton for $60 does seem a little steep to me though, so I'd probably wait for a sale to snatch this one up. 

Half-Circle Stacking Mugs

 

These are just adorable -  a set of 4 stackable mugs, in stoneware, that are microwave and dishwasher safe, and go with just about everything while adding a fun touch. They are 3 inches by 3 inches, and $30 for the set. If you're in need of mugs, these may be a good addition to your cupboards and table/desk/wherever!

In short, I'm a fan of Saturday. Both the day itself and this line :)
