Default Authenticate this LP
Hi My name is Mindy and i'm very very new to this forum. After reading about how many fake there are out there now i'm very careful about buying from ebay. I bought a few on ebay and come to think of it i think a couple of them i bought are fake. Live and learn, so here I am.

I love this LP Purse and was wondering if this is an authentic LP. Thank you all you lovely ladies for your time

Hi Mindy to the LP corner of the world.

YES ! that bag is for real and she's a beauty ! You will find pictures of the style, and styles in that color where you can see the texture close up in our PICTURES ONLY thread. It's not as bright white as those auction pictures look. Also, a modeling picture of that bag is on the LP website in the Celebrities section. It's a very large bag ! If you are new to Linea Pelle, expect ultra - soft leather. You'll find tips for care of the washed leather on this page^.( Wilsons, wilson's wilsons for white)
The Speedy bag comes with a removable flat inner bottom piece if you want to use it for a little structure, and a nice long strap for when you want to be hands-free.
It's one of our favorites.

* Warning - you might need lots of Linea Pelles

Hi Mindy!
Welcome to LP!


I am not a "big woman" either, as you put it (That's cute!) LOL!!! But what is so nice about most of the LP bags, especially the Dylan line, is that the leather is so soft and squishy, and it drapes beautifully, whether it is really full or even if you don't carry alot. I have the biggest Dylan, the Dylan tote, and it is not at all overwhelming on me.

This speedy you are interested in is really not so big.
If the size is the only thing that is concerning you, I say go for it!
The Dylan's are all awesome, and the leather is truly drool-worthy!!!

Oh God no! You didn't offend anyone here! LOL!

We have fun here at LP, we don't get offended by silly things!
I thought it was a cute thing to say! I am not big either, that's all I was saying, so the Dylan's are great!
I am only 5'4" and I know Sep is 5'1" and she and I both have some of the larger LP bags and none of them are overwhelming at all.

I think you would love it!

Well, this Dylan Speedy comes in a MINI version ! You might want to try one of those. They are just as lovable, but in a baby sister way.

You might need both colors ! I love my mini-speedy. It holds a lot more than you'd think, too ! If you think this is bad, wait til there's a sale at LP ! We don't sleep, we order carry - out food, and neglect our housework. It's legal.

I bought the quilted Dylan Mini Speedy in black at the LP Sample Sale, and as cute as it was, it was so so small! (same size as the one you found on BlueFly).
I ended up selling it on eBay ....

I now am so so so into big bags now!

....It's all Sep's fault.....
