Kate Spade Saturday

At the beginning of May I went to my hometown of Boston for the weekend. While I was at home I desired to do all my favorite things, eat at all my favorite places, and shop at all my favorite stores. One place I had to visit while at home for some great shopping was the Prudential Center. If you have never been to the Boston area it is located at 800 Boylston Street in the heart of Boston. It is walking distance from Newbury Street and Boston Commons. Inside you will find a ton of shops, paces to eat, and things to see. While walking through the shops I spotted a new store that was having an event. The store was called “Kate Spade Saturday”. 

The new branch for the Kate Spade Company has only five locations in the U.S., Boston being their newest store. “The Kate Spade Saturday” branch is all about, “…bringing weekend spirit to every day of the week with good, easygoing style and a sense of spontaneity.” The store was playing fun music, had a relaxing style, and fun summer style “weekend” purchases. The store sells not only a new take on weekend bags, but also clothing, shoes, accessories, and home goods. They also offer on their website a “design a weekender bag” where you pick from two different styles of bag and an array of colors and patterns to create your own bag that will then be shipped to you. 

The store has also recently just partnered with "Artisans of Masoro Rwanda" they found talented women artisans and instead of taking their work as aid to sell they instead created jobs with a business model to help these women sell their handmade goods and create a stable source of income for them. The store and the partnership is a new endeavor for the company and hopefully will reach new and existing clientele.
