A View Inside the Kate Spade Pop-Up Store

If only I was the one that got to go to the brand new Kate Spade pop-up store across the pond. I enlisted my best friend, Amy, to go check it out for me - yes I made her go on a shopping field trip. Let me just tell you, I wish I could blink my eyes and be in this space, because it's gorgeous. Every single thing is eye-catching, bright and beautiful. Check out Amy's wonderful photos and what she has to say about the space. Enjoy!


Situated in London's Covent Garden burough, Kate Spade's Pop-Up shop was a bright pop of color from down the block with bunches of big red balloons and a charming bicycle tied up out front. Created to show visitors what Kate Spade's own personal flat would look like if she lived in London, the two stories of a historic white townhouse were a whimsical and stylish invitation to sneak a peak into a day in the life of Kate Spade (and view her latest collection). While her entire collection was for sale in the Pop-Shop, it was the bright colors and design details that really stole the show. From phone numbers written on napkins by the phone to goldfish on the mantle and knick-knacks from around the world, one truly expected to turn the corner and run into Kate Spade herself! Hours spent adoring every detail would not suffice; it was truly a cheery site on a grey London day. So glad that Kate Spade decided to take a hop across the pond!

UPDATE . . . I just came across this fabulous video on the pop-up store and had to add it into this post:
