Call me a granny (chic!), but this yellow rose pattern from retired Kate Spade stationery may just be my all-time favorite pattern. I can’t bear to use my last few notecards and have been saving them now for years. It’s now my Twitter background, isn’t it lovely?
Stressed out over what to wear?

I wonder if wallpaper will be in Kate Spade’s home line? This seems like it’d be the perfect print for a powder room. xo
Haydee says
This is an all-time fave of mine too! Can’t blame you for hanging onto those last notecards. You should frame them?
AbbieBabble says
I love this pattern, too. I have a dress in a really similar one, and it’s PERFECT for summer garden parties and weddings. It’s so cheery!
Katie Armour says
Haydee — Good call on framing it! I have one on my inspiration board now ; )
Lindsay — I would die if it were in there home line! I know one of the lovely ladies on the Kate Spade creative team has this exact pattern in her powder room. It’s so chic!

I’m a sucker for floral patterns…the yellow roses remind me of the Rubie Green Marilyn fabric. So beautiful!
TheIconicBlog.com says
This is lovely. Have you seen this headboard with it? I think Anthropologie used to make one…
Deanna (Silly Goose Farm) says
Yes, quite, so lovely! I wish it were fabric because it would be perfect for my sunporch (are you listening people at Kate Spade?????)
Susan says
Crazy! I’ve been holding onto this stationary for so long! My grandmother had the same pattern on hers, and when I found it years ago at Kate Spade I could not believe it! Kindred spirits indeed. ;)
Dagmarette says

Calder Clark says
I feel like it should be called “the yellow rose of Texas” or something! Totally love it. Almost need it in chintz for some vintage settee- just as a throwback. Cute find, Mrs. Armour.
Lauren says
LOVE. I am definitely a granny chic kind of gal. Hence why I am a neo-trad!
Alexandra says
Yellow roses turn me into such a girl. I crave a cardigan with delicate buttons in this pattern!
Charlotte says
A bit late on commenting but wanted to still share! I still have the tear out page from the first magazine add for Kate Spade’s first perfume. I immediately fell in love with the look and the perfume -worn it for years. I also have worn a pixie but used a later pixie of Kate’s for inspiration – enjoy!
Susan says
Hello fellow yellow-rose fan (flower of friendship of course!)
Screeched to a halt on page 28 of the just released issue of Lonny mag and thought of you – deeeeeeeelishus yellow rose bedsheets from Kate Spade.
Sweet dreams!
Susan
Tracy says
I’m glad you love this pattern because we did a version of it for our Kate Spade bedding line which will be available at Bed, Bath and Beyond in the spring. There is an editorial about it in the current issue of Lonny Magazine and if you click here you can see it. http://lonnymag.com/issues/13-jan-feb-2011/pages/1#p15 I hope you like it!
Annie says
Milly NY has an adorable dress with a very similar pattern out in the spring line!
