Following the February debut of a new bedding line at Bloomingdale's, Kate Spade New York has expanded their home collection. New products are now in store at Bed Bath & Beyond. It's brighter than the stuff that's been available so far, and the prices all come in under $200 — on the high end for BB&B and the low end for Kate Spade.
To be honest, I was a little disappointed in the Bloomingdale's collection, which I found overly fussy and granny-ish. The Bed, Bath & Beyond collection is closer to what I expected from Kate Spade — spring greens, canary yellows, and poppy reds.
While not yet available online, Kate Spade bedding and towels are currently in store at Bed, Bath & Beyond and expected to be on the web soon.

It's like the worst of the 60's without the good drugs. No thanks.
I 2nd that. Truly fugly.
I went blind for a moment there.
Oh wow! All of this is terrible. Why do designers keep damaging their brands by selling stuff like this at the big box stores? I would rather save up for the good stuff.
Ugh. Back when Kate Spade was actually doing her own beddings, she had really awesome bold geometric-but-not-fugly and textured duvet sets that were to die for. This cheap flowery crap reminds me of a knockoff Lily Pulitzer/Ágata Ruiz de la Prada nightmare. Non, merci.
I like bits and pieces, but the collection as a whole is a snooze fest.
Personally I like the bath towels and rugs. I'm a fan of these things in a solid color, so the addition of the dots adds some nice texture. Glad I saved my coupon!
Here's an example of the Kate Spade Bedding of Yore I was talking about. Look how nice it USED to be! Sometimes "new" does not mean "improved."
These are ugly but the top picture here looks pretty good

I like the bedskirts from the BB&B line, but that's about it. The duvets are pretty terrible. I'll withhold judgment on the sheets until I see them in person.
I heart KS, but from this I'd only get the towels and a bath rug. And only the white ones, the colors look washed out.
I have been loving a lot of what the little elves at KS are doing these days. I don't think I would do any of these as a complete look, but some of the pieces seem worthy of an in-person inspection.
I like the rug in the second (yellow theme) picture. Where can I get that?!
