Get Chic City Style with a Kate Spade Handbag

Kate Spade is a designer who's quite popular with the rich and famous. However, for several hundred dollars, anyone can buy themselves an authentic Kate Spade handbag. These bags are available in a wide range of styles, sizes and colors, and offer anyone luxurious, big city fashion.

I really like the Larabee Noel Medium Canvas Tote. This bag is black canvas adorned with tiny white polka dots. It features silver hardware, a front zip pocket and snap top closure, and enough room to carry your essential items. It's not what I'd call a formal bag -- definitely more on the cute and casual side. And for only about $245, it can be yours.

On the other end of the spectrum, there's the Party Leather Shoulder Bag for $375. This Kate Spade handbag is available in metallic silver leather or black leather. You'll get a beautiful silver ornament on the side of this bag, as well as a detachable shoulder strap and the space to carry everything you need for a hot night on the town!

One popular choice that could work for night or day is the Kate Spade Leather Hobo. Available in either natural tan or black, this bag goes with everything! It's made from the finest leather and has side pockets and a zip top. It's a little costly at $445 retail, but a must if you want a designer bag that's practical and beautiful.

A smaller Kate Spade handbag that would make a great starter bag for someone new to the world of designer purses is the Nylon Tote. This bag is from the 'flatiron' collection and comes in classic black. For $225 or so, it's much less expensive than some of the other Kate Spade handbags out there.

Another affordable Kate Spade handbag isn't a handbag at all, but a backpack! Spade's nylon backpack retails for around $120, comes in black and offers a trendy way to carry all your necessities like books and papers. You could also use the nylon backpack as a gym bag, or even a trendy diaper bag. Even daddies can feel comfortable toting their baby's belongings around in a plain black backpack, as opposed to those frilly diaper bags that are so common!

I definitely recommend a Kate Spade handbag to anyone seeking a purse that features a hot designer label and master craftsmanship! Now if only I could afford one for myself...
