Westward by Emily and Meritt for Kate Spade New York (7): Leather is a recurring theme for this collection and this particular handbag is not lacking in it at all. The perforated surface and creates a unique texture that stands out about the handbag. It also has a cross body strap and top structured handles that make this bag fancy and functional.
Westward by Emily and Meritt for Kate Spade New York (6): A leather perforated lap cover and double straps with a contrasted suede bottom. This bag is similar to the first, only it has strap closures that lay over the bag and a more compact structured handle for easy pick up.
Westward by Emily and Meritt for Kate Spade New York (5): This fun little sequin bag is definitely a show stopper having all the makings of a girls night out bag. The leather detailing makes this bag pop with distinctive flare and the skinny shoulder strap is the definition of femininity.
Westward by Emily and Meritt for Kate Spade New York (4): This handbag has the luxurious leather that we first saw from the first bag in the collection. This time there is no texture to be found, but the flawless black leather bag screams affluence. The flap bag has two strap closures, a top handle and cross body strap to finish. This is the ultimate everyday bag.
Westward by Emily and Meritt for Kate Spade New York (3): This loose structure leather bag with tall handle, thick zipper and thin cross body strap is also a good option for an everyday bag from the collection.
Westward by Emily and Meritt for Kate Spade New York (2): This leather mini structured satchel is quite simple and delicate, featuring one strap closure and a thin shoulder strap (we really love this feature, it’s elegant and sweet).
