If you follow Kate Spade on Instagram, you may have seen me pop up while I was in New York about a month ago! I wore their new Rio crepe dress to the Veuve Cliquot Polo Classic and they shared a pic of me wearing it on their Instagram – obviously, I was ecstatic! While I wore the dress to what can only be considered a day party (full of champagne drinking and other general debauchery), it’s a lovely item for the office. This frock is an appropriate and sophisticated length and neckline – all you need is a cute sweater or blazer to throw on over it. I love the fit – it’s like the super flattering cinched waist and flowy skirt were made for my body type! The black, brown and white print and color combo make it very versatile and useful (at least in my closet!).
Kate Spade has been killing it lately, if you haven’t noticed. A few other pieces I’ve got my eye on include this extreme peplum printed top and this silk dress from their Madison Avenue collection. This little black dress and this bright pink number are party perfect, don’t you think? This bamboo-detailed handbag is an ideal transitional piece, but I also adore this clutch (hello, tassels!). Finally, if you’re stilling searching for a sparkly summer sandal, these are amazing!

I am always a sucker for Kate Spade! I absolutely love how you styled this dress… The Alexander Wang handbag is amazing! I have always wanted one, but they just seem so heavy to me when I look at the weight online. I haven’t seen one in person. You look lovely as always! Adore your style, Merritt!
