I have been reading TPF for a long time now, but just started posting. I am very excited to have found the Kate Spade forum. I love KS! I am recently eyeing the catherine street pippa from S/S 2013 (http://www.katespade.com/catherine-street-pippa/PXRU4010,default,pd.html), especially the dusty mint color. Anyone has any experience with that baby? I have never owned a light colored leather bag and I am kind of a clutz...
catherine street pippa, anyone?

I am stalking this bag in the mint color as well! I have it down for my b-day present!! I think if I get it I might spray it with some protective leather spray....and baby it!
I wish it eventually goes on sale! Or maybe on a F&F sale...Last year there was a F&F around April, hopefully I can wait until then...
I'm hoping that too! There are a few on ebay but still way too pricey! Can't wait for us both to get one!!!!
Turn of event. I had just went to check it out in store. The sample looks wrinkled and dirty. Don't know if it is my local store's problem or a general issue. Not to be a wet blanket, and you should probably still go see it for yourself. And I suspect lighting has a lot to do with it. But I am backing out for now...
Pretty sad. I had high hopes for this one.

Wrinkled and dirty??! Oh H no! Thanks for the heads up, will for sure go see the one in store before I buy!
I saw these for the first time today in 3 colours: mint, pink and blk with white handles. All were nice smooth leather. It totally reminds me of small, simple version of Givenchy Antigona 
I sort of wish she made a monochrome version.

All I am saying is that you should go see it for yourself. The leather on the sides seemed wrinkled for me, and I was disappointed. But it might just be because of my local store...You shouldn't give up just yet!
There is a black with white handles. I sort of wish there is a all black version...I saw these for the first time today in 3 colours: mint, pink and blk with white handles. All were nice smooth leather. It totally reminds me of small, simple version of Givenchy Antigona

I agree. A black/black version would be a no-brainer. I don't have a spare $2405 + tax for a real Givenchy Antigona...shucks
Was just going to post the same thing!! I saw this at Nordies and really love the mint one which is not like me. I think after this N.E. winter I am tired of just black. Then I saw an awesome pair of the same color mint heels, rounded toe and fell in love. What do you think? Will I tire of this color or go for it? I have a lot of larger bags and would like some smaller ones and I thought the shape of the Pippa was just fabulous!
