Kate Spade shipment has arrived!!!

I am SOOOOOOOOO excited!!!!

I got home from my doctor's appointment today to find a notice taped to my door letting me know that there was a package waiting for me at the Canada Post office. I knew it was either the crib bedding from Carousel Designs, the Kushies newborn nightgowns I had ordered from Walmart, or......my KATE SPADE SHIPMENT!!! Let's face it, handbags trump baby gear when it comes to the "which-package-do-I-want-it-to-be-most" contest, and I could barely contain my grin when the girl at the counter emerged from the backroom carrying my package with the sender labeled "Kate Spade".

A few weeks ago, I had barely made the midnight deadline of the 24 hour, on-line-only, 75% off sale. All items were final sale, so I was a bit nervous unboxing my purchases, but should have known better, as Kate never lets me down.

For less than the regular price of the satchel alone (and just $10 shipping to Canada) here's what I got:

Clockwise from left: Pave hoops, Silver bow earrings, Dot cosmetic case, Graphite satchel, Taupe cross-body, Turquoise wallet
 I'm really happy with all of the items. The wallet in particular makes me smile. I think I'm a bit too old to have a favorite colour, but I will admit that I am inexplicably drawn to blue and pink, particularly in shades of turquoise and dusty rose (did my blog design give it away??)

I just love the "Tiffany Blue" hue and gold hardware combination of the wallet:



Speaking of, did you know that all of the hardware on Kate Spade accessories is actually "14 karat gold plated"? Just one more reason to heart Kate Spade.

This sale is over but you can find similar items at the Kate Spade website here. And if you register your information with the site, you'll be added to the mailing list for the next big sale!

Have you recently unboxed a gorgeous steal of a deal? I'd love to hear about what you found and where.
