Thanks, I did't realize that till I did research on this forum. It's great to know, though I knew you ladies would know the style. I also found lots of pics of the day bag new vs broken in and wow, what a difference. I love the way it eventually slouches and I was confused because when I tried one on it didn't have the slouchiness evident in the above pic.

Authentication questions should be posted in the "Authenticate this" thread in the Shopping section.

As I wrote above, if you want it authenticated, you need to post in this link:

Authenticate This Balenciaga

Anyway, you need more pics to authenticate, although my initial feeling is that it's fake - as far as I know, the covered hardware bags do not have metal tags, but I could be wrong. The extra pics needed are: a clearer one of the tag, one of the underside of the tag, plus the rivet on the underside of the handle. Also, if there is a shoulder strap, a pic of the bale at the end of the strap. Good luck!

Edit: Another indication that it is fake: The metal tag has a "Y" which means S/S 2006 - they didn't make covered hardware back then!

Can you please help me identify this color? I think it's 06 pre-fall Truffle because of the "W" tag. I've also compared it with the 'color by season' thread and I'm quite positive that it's Truffle, but there are different opinions that it could be Marron. I don't have the paper tags and now I'm confused. Pic taken in natural daylight without flash. What do you think?

Ok what style is Jennifer's bag? I don't think it is the weekender? Definitely Saddle with GGH.

It looks tapered up the top, and does not have the opening like the RTT. Hmmm...
