kate spade

So I think I'd like to live in Kate Spade's magazine ads. I wouldn't mind being surrounded by gorgeous colors & books all the time.





















(That's my favorite one.)















So on a somewhat related note, where do you all get your tights from? Target just doesn't have as nice a selection this year as they have in the past.

I haven't been to TJ lately, I must make a trip! (We don't have one in my valley.) & I'll probably have to give in to UO & get some there.

You did a project on her? That sounds really interesting. What sort of class was it?

those ads are so pretty.

anyway, i found a big bag of my mum's old tights so i have awesome purple and navy tights and even a pair of sparkley nude ones.

BUT that didn't satisfy my thirst for more tights so i went to the states, to sears and bought the most opaque black pair i could find. then i went to a small mall and found an express and i was really impressed with their selection. i bought some fairly dark charcoal grey stirrup-style tights and some sparkley black ones! they were kinda pricey though, i think two pairs cost me over $35 USD. but american was so chea to buy two weeks ago that i wasn't too bothered with it.
good luck on your search!

I am dying to go to H&M! One of these days....

i've never bought anything from them (i'm one of those people who wears nothing but jeans) but i've heard a lot of good things about we love colors for plain colored tights.

their boutique in soho, new york is, of course, the physical manifestation of those print ads. its wonderful; everything is so well-crafted and delicate. and the sales associates are well-mannered and kind! whenever i am in new york, i always pop in.

December 2 2007, 16:42:34 UTC 4 years ago

Definitely on my list of things to see when I finally go to New York. :)

definetly uo. and you can find variations of tights from this seasons in sale, but they are just "last season".

ahh! i have that exact edition of the salinger book in your favorite ad. oh, and i get my tights at h&m!

[info]cara_mia

December 2 2007, 16:43:03 UTC 4 years ago

Lucky!!! I love Salinger, I don't care what anyone else says. Franny & Zooey is my favorite, though.

i love kate spade's ads. i could get lost in them

as for the tights, i find that H&M has a really great selection, and they're pretty reasonable!

I got pretty much all my tights from American Apparel. They come in a bazillion colors and they're good quality and have a pleasing amount of opacity, but, of course, they run miiiighty small.

Funny you should mention tights from Target -- I can't tell you how many compliments I got on mine yesterday. And they, too, were from last year!

[info]cara_mia

December 2 2007, 22:13:30 UTC 4 years ago

Yeah, last year was pretty good, but this year... not so much. I don't need any black tights as I have two different Betsey Johnson black tights, so Target is virtually no help this year.

Wolford tights are superb.
I want to try sock dreams too!
Also, Anthropolgie has some cute tights.

I have been doing an illustration in my my free time in illustrator and photoshop based on the ad with the piles of books and the feet standing on them because I loved that ad so much!

Isn't it great? I would like to see your finished result. Hope you decide to share it!

I get all my tights at Macy's/Nordstrom. I like Hue and DKNY, which I think they sell at both stores. They're a bit pricy, usually running between $12-18 a pair, but the tights I buy elsewhere get runs and holes within like 3 wears so I stick to the thicker sweater tights I can buy there which last me a while.

i've always liked Hue, DKNY, and Anne Klein for tights. I want to escape to Switzerland... maybe not as a Nazi war criminal though (guessing by the dude on back cover). Kate Spade shoes are meh but cool ads.
