Westward {for Kate Spade}



 The sweet team over at Kate Spade hosted an adorable blogger styling event yesterday complete with macaroons, lemonade and a make your own flip book station. We each styled a look based on the Westward bag of our choice. I chose a "girls getaway look" using the Runaway Duffle and thanks to all of your tweets I actually won! This girl is mighty happy to have a weekend bag as chic as this (and covered in sequins!); such an upgrade from the Adidas duffel that I still use from my high school field hockey days.


Westward for Kate Spade was designed by two of my favorites: Emily Current and Merritt Elliot, so I thought it was rather appropriate to wear my leopard print Current / Elliot jeans.
