28 Empowering Kate Spade Quotes

Kate Spade circa 2004

With the recent passing of Kate Spade, I have been looking through my Kate Spade books SHE and Places to Go.  These books are filled of inspiring images accompanied with some of Kate Spades most inspiring quotes.  In 1993, Kate Spade started Kate Spade New York with her husband.  The brand is a major hit to this day following the original inspiration despite Kate Spade selling the company in 2007.  Kate Spade inspired her brand to be for the working woman who longed for fashion and colorful accessories.  For the women who wanted fashion rather than thinking they needed it.  She inspired many through her pieces and personally, her quotes are always great inspiration to me.  Here are 28 of my favorite Kate Spade quotes:

 She makes the day brighter, she leaves a little sparkle wherever she goes.
Think, travel, celebrate, charm, decorate, dress, live - colorfully.
 She looks for adventure around every corner.
She danced all night and all the way home.
 She is the first to give a toast and the last to say goodnight.
She has a zest for seaside strolls and putting her best foot forward.
 She serves champagne with pizza and eats takeout on china.
She lets her imagination run away with her.
 She has a way with words, red lipstick, and making an entrance.
She had a cocktail in her hand and confetti in her hair.
 We believe in celebrations both big and small.
"She is quick and curious and playful and strong.  She is a voracious reader and fantastic dancer.  She saves old snapshots but always loses her umbrella.  Her emails pile up but she never forgets to call her grandmother.  She has $7 in change at the bottom of her handbag."
 Eat cake for breakfast.
Surround yourself with the things you love.  Discard the rest.
 She's a dreamer, a doer, a thinker.  She sees possibility everywhere.
She's the exclamation point to every lively sentence.
 If I ever have my head down, it'll be to admire my shoes.
She laughs out loud but always keeps secrets.
 She does everything she can and everything she "can't".
She prefers rocking boats to safe bets.
 She writes her own rules and inspires others to follow them.
You cannot have passion of any kind unless you have compassion.
 She welcomes wild guesses.
Maybe some women aren't meant to be tamed.  Maybe they need to run free until they find someone just as wild to run with.
 She opens doors and hearts.
Playing dress up begins at age five and never truly ends.
 She's got a point of view that's never dull.
If you are not satisfied with your life it's time to invent a new one.
