Here’s a silhouette I’m absolutely loving this season. The Kate Spade Palm Groves Melinda is a fabulous interpretation of the label’s timeless satchel. It’s dipped in “gold” for a polished appearance, but that’s not all it has going for it. The metallic leather trim rests easily against the neutral cream backdrop, lending the entire piece a considerably glamorous look. It’s not that you’d grab this for a special occasion, exactly, but you …

One part cream, three parts purple, all parts delicious. The Kate Spade New York Melinda Satchel is a drool-worthy summer sensation, inticing us like a tasty scoop of ice cream.

The whole thing zips up from side to side, keeping all my belongings tucked inside tight. Available for $278 from Nordstrom’s.

… ask me, when it comes to green, the brighter the better. Thus I love the springy stripes of the Kate Spade High Falls Melinda Satchel, a sporty but sweet bag that looks perfect for spring and summer jaunts. The simple structure and stripes make it casual enough for daily use, but the preppy chicness that most Kate Spade bags exude would make it perfect for pairing with dresses and skirts. It’s $278 at eBags.

Though I adore the vivacious print on the Kate Spade Japanese Floral Melinda Satchel, I’m not quite sure it translates that well on an everyday handbag. In fact, this bright bag looks more like a makeup bag than an actual purse. It’s a bit too boxy, and there’s a bit too much white space for my liking. I’d stash this with my cosmetics, hair, and skin goodies if I were hitting the road (it’s pretty spacious, so it would hold …

I couldn’t decide which Kate Spade Flicker Melinda Satchel I liked best, so I thought I’d just share all three with you. Admittedly, the gorgeous berry caught my eye first, but the luxurious gold and that sharp navy are just as beguiling – and I could see any of them fitting nicely into my wardrobe. The boxy shape isn’t always my favorite silhouette, but I can’t imagine this bag any other way. It’s polished, …

Putting a fresh spin on the colorblock trend, the Kate Spade Brighton Pier Barkley is one of spring’s most promising tote bags. I love the warm, polished feel it exhibits, but what really sets it apart is the creative use of raffia. Most straw bags aren’t quite this chic, yet this one not only looks stylish, it’s timeless. A glossy patent strap lends it a touch of sophistication and makes it just dressy enough for special warm weather …

… left out in the cold without a good shoulder bag to cry on.  The perfectly timed release of the Kate Spade Walker Park Raleigh Crossbody Bag actually makes us glad to pull out our wool tights and don our knit caps.  This leather-trimmed felt bag is all about utilizing this season’s fabrics to our advantage.  The felt itself may make this bag feel like a breezy, casual walk in the park but the exquisite stitching and patent-leather strap upgrade this bag to total office party status.  …

… jewel tones back into our color palettes. One of the bags on my “want” list this season is the Kate Spade New York Knightsbridge Mod Little Helena Bag. This croc-embossed patent leather bag combines two of our favorite bag trends – patent and croc. This luxury leather bag has numerous pockets inside as well as two compartments with a zip divider in the middle. It also has protective feet to keep our pretty teal bag in tip top shape.

I dearly love Kate Spade’s ladylike bags. You can always count on her to designer a beautiful bag for those who love structure. This time she’s wrapped it up with a very tidy bow!
