Golf X Fashion
Kate Spade launched a mini golf inspired collection and it’s exactly what we didn’t know we needed
Clutch your golf ball pearls and wicker windmill bags because this whimsical, hilarious, life-affirming collection of novelty accessories from the New York design house is a wild sartorial ride. The capsule, released earlier this winter, features mini-golf nods large and small, through embroidered loafers, architectural phone cases, printed silk scarves and emblematic charm bracelets. Here, golf balls are high heels, hole-in-ones have crystals and the best fairways are spade-shaped. The love for life, color, and golf is clear in every embroidered or appliqué detail. Here’s a breakdown of our favorite pieces from the drop.
Kate Spade Tee Time Wicker 3D Windmill Top-handle Bag
Kate Spade Tee Time Slide Sandals
Kate Spade Mini Golf Short PJ Set
And to quite literally take you from day to night, this pajama set is packed with visual jokes, our favorite being the green that’s shaped like a perfectly rouged and lined lip. You could dress these separates up if you want to wear beyond the bedroom, pairing the polo top with a jean and sneaker or a blouse tucked into the shorts.
Kate Spade Hole In One Statement Necklace
Kate Spade Sam Icon Astroturf Fabric Small Tote
Kate Spade Hole In One Club Ring
A bit more unique than your classic “golf ball jewelry,” this glass and plated metal design features an animated curve mirroring a club in motion, just as it strikes the (glass pearl) ball.
Kate Spade Putt Putt Espadrilles
We set out to write about our five favorite pieces from this collection, which became six, and is now seven, because really, these fabulously fun finds basically write themselves. But this is the last one, we promise (no 19th hole business here). These espadrilles feature the watercolor print so indicative of this collection, here highlighting CASTLES, because all the best mini golf courses (and real golf courses, now that we're thinking about it, hello golf-courses-of-Ireland). Real fibrous jute gives these an authentic, earthy feel.
