I’ll be honest —
I’ve never seen this style before, but it really looks like an authentic Ivory or oatmeal color
It could be something that wasn’t released in the US & was exclusive to another location
I wish I could see the markings up close

If anyone is brave enough or intrigued enough to buy it, I’d love to authenticate for you!!
I considered getting it myself, but I can’t do crossbody bags & that strap is too long for me

It could be. It does have the correct color stitching and lining for Thistle, but I don’t see any hint of green in those pics & I would think under TRR’s bright lights, the green undertones would be more obvious, but you never know

It definitely looks authentic to me though. The fakes weren’t that good looking back then
I’ve just never seen this style before

I agree there is no hint of green. It’s a very interesting bag. I think the fall 2004 lines and before aren’t here because TPF was in a different server or something back then before they switched.

LOL — no. Thats not why! :lol:
TPF was born in late 2005!

it didn't exist in 2004
My eBay page actually pre-dated tPF

Wow! I must’ve been thinking of the Elle Magazine forum or thefashionspot. I remember details about the 2003 and 2004 collections when eluxury was gaining prominence and this photo of Jennifer Lopez with a peppermint Stella. (Can’t find that photo for anything.)

Yea this year is tPF's 20th Anniversary
I do remember Fashion Spot, but I'm not sure I remember the Elle forum

I checked my Photobucket album to see if I had that pic of Jennifer Lopez on my page, but I don't see it
I did have a pic of Jennifer Garner with a spearmint Venetia and Courney Love with a Meadow Stella. There's also one of Jada Pinket Smith with a white Stella

Magazines were also running features about celebs & Marc Jacobs bags.
I think this 2 page spread was from Star Mag

Now THIS is cool! It's amazing how we were all so obsessed with celeb culture back then- I feel like maybe because we weren't constantly inundated with it at all hours of the day from all angles. Celebs felt much more distant then. I remember being so excited to pick up one of those grocery store checkout line magazines and see what they were all wearing. :P

Oh, I love these photos, a blast from the past. :heart: Yes, we were so obsessed. (US Weekly, anyone?) Celebs had that air of mystique about them back then. Less was definitely more. What a time!

I have a bunch more saved. I think most (if not all) of them were also shared to the Celebrity thread, but I can’t remember (they may not be visible any more anyhow) The pic of Jennifer Garner with the red Zip Top Hobo is one I referred to often as I was on the hunt for that bag in black (with pink stitching/suede lining) for the longest time. I also had the royal blue Scarlet that Jessica Simpson is carrying
