We're Already Mourning the Loss of Kate Spade Saturday

What’s not to love about whimsical Kate Spade designs at a lower price point? We certainly can’t think of anything. Two years ago, the beloved New York City based brand brought us Kate Spade Saturday, answering our prayers for a more collegiette budget-friendly line. But today, the brand announced that they will be closing the online shop and 19 store locations before July 2015. Though we've seen the recent closure of many of brands we once knew and loved, we certainly didn't see this one coming.

Kate Spade Saturday channels a more casual, weekend vibe (as its name suggests) with bright colors and easy breezy clothes. The “Design A Weekender” feature on the website allows the jetsetters among us to create a custom versatile on-the-go bag. The brand also collaborated with New Balance, producing adorable sneakers worthy of a modern Sporty Spice. They even collaborated with artisans in their On Purpose project to enrich a community in Rwanda and create a collection of unique, beaded accessories.

With everything from hipster tech accessories to bright and preppy shift dresses, Kate Spade Saturday is a collegiette’s dream line. Luckily, the parent brand says the aesthetic of the line will be integrated into Kate Spade products, but we haven't heard yet whether the same attractive prices will follow. The brand has cited a "new business model" as the reason for the closure of Saturday and its menswear label, Jack Spade (which will, however, still be sold online). In the meantime, don’t get sidetracked by your homework or your latest DIY project—get online or head to the closest store and snatch up a chambray jumpsuit or a personalized tote because this may just be your last chance!
