All in Good Taste | Best Books for Summer Reading

A New York Times Bestseller, kate spade new york: all in good taste is a charming guide to entertaining.

“For many women, ‘Kate Spade’ didn’t mean a handbag or even a New York designer—rather, it represented something bigger: a milestone purchase, an achievement, a first investment in one’s self.” —Glamour

Throwing rigid rules out the door, kate spade new york shares unpretentious ideas for the modern-day hostess that are easy, festive, authentic, and always with an air of deliberate polish. This small, beautifully designed book is a perfect gift, filled with:

• How-tos
• Personal essays
• Anecdotes
• Table setting
• Recipes
• Advice on manners
• A liberal dash of style
• And much more!

The joy, advice, and good taste here will transform you into the hostess everyone wants an invitation from. This book covers essential lost arts—like how to shuck an oyster, curate a vibrant guest list, and guide a dinner-table discussion—right alongside modern conundrums such as Instagram etiquette at dinner.

Since its launch in 1993 with six essential handbags, kate spade new york has stood for optimistic femininity. It’s now a global life and style house filled with handbags, of course, but also clothes, shoes, jewelry, home décor, tech accessories, and so many other things that you use every day. Kate spade new york values thoughtful details and thinks a layer of polished ease looks (and feels) so chic.
