The latest addition to my coffee table arrived in the post this weekend. Kate Spade Things We Love; Twenty Years of Inspiration, Intriguing Bits and Other Curiosities is a new hardcover book created to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the brand. It's packed with gorgeous pictures and brimming with the playful sophistication that the brand is known for.
The book comprises of twenty chapters all focusing on a particular topic such as, 'a well-placed bow', 'handwritten notes', 'summer', 'bold blooms', and 'a sense of humour'. Each chapter is made up of iconic fashion photographs and collages of inspirational items, all complemented by quotes and little tips presented in beautifully thought-out typography.

Whilst I was expecting this book to be good, it actually really surpassed my expectations! Everything from how beautifully glossy the pages are, adorned with their colourful images and edged in gold, down to the graphic black and white striped lining of the cover, makes it a truly gorgeous book to enjoy leafing through. Whether or not you're a Kate Spade fan this book is a visual delight, and I think it would make a great addition to any coffee table book collection. It's my new favourite and if I haven't already made it clear, I'm just a little bit in love with this book!
The book is $40 via the Kate Spade website but it's also currently on sale via Amazon for a very reasonable $25, here:
