Hi Jess,
It is approx 37/38 cm high and only has the handbag straps, not the additional shoulder strap too. I had just assumed that it was an earlier version of this bag. Did one ever exist without the additional strap?
The zipper is branded YKK, however the lining is not flat, it's a bit raised, like braille. (I've checked my other Stella - and the lining is definitely different.)
The gold on the top of the straps has worn down (and used to mark my white tops - how did I not see the signs then?) however it is still gold on the sides. Has this happened to anyone else? I'm now thinking that I have fully been scammed.
Also I had wanted to repair it because I have so many great memories of times with this bag. (Which are now fading fast.)
How is it possible that an exceptionally reputable boutique, who is an official Stella McCartney stockist, has, it would appear, sold me a fake handbag?
