tea parties with iris

 If you could have a tea party with one person- who would you choose?  As I pondered this question, I immediately thought of Kate Spade's recent blog post on Iris Apfel visiting their NY offices.  Not only  is she a fashionista from my home state of Wisconsin, but Apfel is also a style icon that has influenced the fashion industry tremendously over the years.  If we could take away anything from Iris- it's to pile on the jewelry (hello, arm party), contrast colors, and not be afraid to rock a print. All hail the gorgeous Iris!
