Real Kate Spade bag?
Looks off to me, but I'm not even close to an expert. Thoughts?

Also, maybe some pictures of the inside and any labels that say kate spade on them. It doesn't jump out as a fake, but it's hard to say without more closeup pictures.

OK - I sent an email asking for pics of the interior and closeups of the label. Will post here if she sends. Thank you!

that is a KS style "sam" or "samson",

although most of the bags i have seen in that style have leather handles.

im better if there were a close up photo of the tag inside the bag. maybe you can ask the seller for one?

hopefully someone else will chime in.

I believe they are both authentic. Hardware is perfect. Sometimes Kate Spade changes the features just slightly for the same bag. For example, my Noel Bea has a zipper pocket but I have also seen real ones with no zipper.

Hi guys, I found this on ebay and I love it, but I won't buy it unless it's real. Can you tell whether or not it's a fake? Thanks for your help!

oh, i love the Belle Meade collection. that one is very lovely. and a really nice color, probably would be HTF right now.

maybe start your offer lower though (but not to low), because it was in the outlets.

Default Halp!!!
I have a black suede hand bag with a Kate Spade ‘metal-ly’ tag attached to the front.
Attached as well is a black leather bow-in the fashion of breast cancer awareness or protect the troops-flush with the tag,almost anchoring a strap.
This bag is firm,not malleable,and has a... a protective cover with a clip attachment for the interior. ..like a shell to cover the open gap.
The serial number,stamped in tiny numerals on a metal exterior disc covering the clip, reads 8833313 & NDATO or HAOTA3331628.
The measurements are 11″(L.) x 9″(H.) x3″(W.).
Straps are black leather with white or blonde stitching.
I cannot find anywhere else to turn to in order to authenticate this.
I will transmit more detailed images if necessary.
I haven’t any knowledge of this item’s provenance-and I just need help with the determination.
Would you help me-please?
Please help me.
You are the best! Even better than that!

mzedith,thank you for responding.
I've submitted two images of the purse interior.
Other than a made in China tag I cannot find anything else.
What do you think?
