Hello again, This is bag two of the Kate Spade i bought off of auctions on Whatnot. The seller has a consignment and I cant imagine that her bags would be counterfeit though I cannot find any local live authenticators so I am hoping I can learn from the wisdom of this forum..
If anyone can tell me if this is authentic and what model it is i would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you in advance

Hello! I’m hoping someone can help me authenticate this bag. Some of the photos of the bumble bee bag that I can find online shows the lining is yellow and this one is cream lining. However, I read somewhere that KS has 2 version of the lining, is this correct?

Is this an authentic KS bag? TIA!

Hi - I'm hoping someone can clarify the use of the black hologram tag. Do absolutely all authentic Kate Spade bags have them, no exceptions?

Long story short, I have a Park Avenue Beau Bag from Fall 2013. I bought it second hand, and I would now like to resell. All the pictures of the ones currently online don't have the black tag, and neither does mine. Does this mean these are all fakes? Or perhaps outlet bags? Happy to post pictures, but this is truly the only discrepancy I can find so I thought I'd check that first.

Thank you so much! I've been torturing myself googling and looking at pictures for like two hours lol

Hello! I just purchased this from someone. It is “new with tags” but I feel I am questioning if it is real. It does not have the YKK zipper and the tag inside seems odd, it’s made in Cambodia and it has a smell. The retail tag is also black - I’m used to seeing pink and green.
Also, the white tag with the “serial number” is in the privacy pocket - not with the black “made in” tag.
When I look at pictures online of the same bag they all have pink retail tags and spades on the lining. This exact same bag has the black tag and “Kate spade” on the lining inside instead of spades.
Appreciate any help!

Hello,

I purchased this gorgeous bag from Savers, and would like to know if it's authentic. It measures approx. 10 3/4 in x 13.5 with a 5.5 shoulder strap drop. Thank you!

I found this tag while cleaning the bag. I'm so curious about the style if real, as I can't find anything online. the strap looks too small to be Bailey style. Let me know if there are more photos/close-ups I can provide.
