Great Kate Spade Picks From Nordstrom Rack

Happy Tuesday, ladies. Our short blip of cool, fall-like weather makes me hopeful we will get some rain this winter, so I ordered a rain jacket…I hope I don’t jinx it. This post is sponsored by Nordstrom Rack and Shopstyle Collective. Thank you for supporting the brands that support AWSL.

Nordstrom Rack carries all the brands I love at unbeatable prices, offering up to 70% off designer brands with extended returns. When you see something you love at Nordstrom Rack, jump on it because the best things can sell out fast!

With cooler temperatures on the horizon, I’m thinking of must-haves and staples I need for the weather ahead, and the first thing that comes to mind is booties. Booties are one of my favorite fall wardrobe additions.

These suede Kenneth Cole booties come in black, chocolate and this great neutral taupe called concrete. The suede is soft, comfy, and the heel is nice and low. I paired them with a cuddly soft T Tahari Chenille pullover in driftwood. I find these neutral grayish/taupe shades coordinate easily with so many other colors in my wardrobe. It comes in 4 pretty colors, sizes XS-XL. I bought a medium. I also have my eye on these suede Eileen Fisher booties because I know how comfy hers are.

I added some Kut From The Kloth roll-cuff straight-leg boyfriend jeans. The hem is finished on these, so they can be unrolled. I’m wearing them rolled to an inseam of 26 1/2″. Unrolled, they’reĀ  30 1/2″ long. They come in sizes 0-16, I’m wearing a 6.

I topped the look with this Kate Spade flap bag. It has a removable crossbody strap plus a shorter strap for over the shoulder. This bag is a terrific size…not too large and not too small and the pebbled leather is beautifully soft.

I’m wearing the same great Kenneth Cole Booties in black. Nordstrom Rack has a fantastic collection of Kate Spade handbags here.

I swapped the jeans for these essential ponte pants, which are an amazing find! I’m a big fan of the look, feel, and ease of classic ponte pants. You can spend a small fortune on them, but I’ve discovered you don’t have to. These come in at a cool $29.97, and you can’t tell them from more expensive versions. The fabric is thick and stretchy, and the fit is great.

Her elegantly carved sterling is both intricate and striking. These are the Silver Scroll Star link drops.

I topped this look with my new coated, A-line Kate Spade Jacket. I bought the squid ink color because it’s such a great neutral. It also comes in brilliant pink, and a show-stopping yellow called school bus! Here’s the same coat in a fun leopard print. This coat fits so beautifully, and the coating will keep me dry in a downpour. It comes in sizes XXS-XXL, I am wearing a medium, so I can layer things under it.

    I LOVE KATE SPADE I HAVE HER WATCHES HER PURSES HER WALLETS THEY’RE SO ELEGANT VERY EASY TO GO WITH ANYTHING I WEAR.

  2. Do you wear socks with these booties? Or barefootā€¦..

    1. Most of the time, I don’t wear socks.

  3. The Nordstrom Rack near my home doesn’t have a great selection, but the online site does.
    The raincoat looks good on you.

    1. Ditto, that’s why I shop it online.

  4. I may have to shop online for Nordstrom Rack. I have their store near me, but it is always picked over. Have you tried DSW shoe store ? Good prices.

    1. I never have much luck in person at my Nordstrom Rack but find the online site has the most selection.

  5. Like the rain jacket in Squid Ink. Also like the way you cuffed the jeans in a wide cuff. I just bought some jeans that I think will look great with a wider cuff.

    1. It’s a really nice blue.

  6. Iā€™ve read on several fashion blogs that split ankle booties are no longer trending. It seems higher shaft booties are in and fit better under straight leg or bootcut jeans. That way you donā€™t have to cuff your jeans, which gives them a very casual look.
    Iā€™m headed to Ottawa next week and will check out the Nordstrom Rack. I love to shop with my daughters. Itā€™s dangerously fun! Lol

    1. I don’t follow trends that closely. I actually prefer the look of this type of bootie with ankle jeans, cuffed or uncuffed that stop right at the ankle. šŸ™‚ Ankle jeans seldom stay under slim jeans on me.

  7. We have a great Nordstrom Rack here and I have really found some great prices on name brand items, especially jeans. I really like those boots and I know I’ve seen them in the store. Thanks for sharing. You look great in that neutral outfit.

    1. These booties are such a great little basic for fall.

  8. Those are the booties that I tried to order from your post, but as Sue says, they don’t ship to Canada. I have not found a pair that looks like that as yet, but will keep looking. There is so much black out there, but I want a nice cool tone taupe or grey and that is hard to find. I love the glasses, I ordered a pair similar a couple months ago and love the softer look. I wore very dark frames for years and get so many compliments on the new ones, and when I look back at pictures I realize that all you could see was the glasses, not my eyes… who knew, until I got my analysis, not me.

    1. Taupe is one of my favorite neutrals for just that reason…it’s soft.

  9. Thanks for sharing this. Some great ideas.
    Unfortunately, Nordstrom Rack no longer ships to Canada. We have a store here, but the selection isn’t always the greatest.

    1. I’m sorry to hear that.
