In memoriam: Kate Spade
It is rare that a famous person's death would affect me personally, but this was what happened when I heard that Kate Spade had passed away on Tuesday, June 5th/2018. What a truly sad day for the fashion world. I was shocked, much like most people. I never knew she suffered from depression.
For this post, I thought I'd share the story of my one and only Kate Spade bag.
The Kate Spade black nylon tote was the first designer bag I had ever owned. I was a poor student when I bought it at Holt Renfrew. I couldn't afford it, but I didn't care. I just remembered clutching the Holt paper bag while going home on the subway, with my precious inside. I was so ecstatic!
I loved this tote, and for a long time was the only thing I was using. It was bag for school, when going out, at formal occasions, my first real job after university...it was a constant companion.
You would think after all these years that it would be battered up, but it still looks as good as I did when I bought it (albeit with a tiny tear on one of the handles). It's one of the few things I've never let go.
Rest in peace, Kate.

I carried this bag everywhere, you guys.

and hated Marie Antoinette lol
Her accessories and pieces made people so happy - it's sad she felt she didn't have that same simple joy in her life and things got so bad for her. I guess we never nkow what people are going through.
People need to start dealing with mental health with much more seriousness.. is is not another form of cancer..
