Ok, I found this in a clearance bin at a resale shop on Sunday and they had it pretty cheap. Like $6 cheap! It needs a good cleaning and I want to say it's real...but need the help of more experienced Kate Spade members to authenticate it....:smile1:

Everything sorta checks out. The font...the silver looking line through the numbers on the inside of wallet... the ladies at the store thought it was fake..but then again, they had a fake Givenchy bag behind the counter and wanting over $180 for it (they thought it was real- it reaked of vinyl...the cheap vinyl!)

Anyway....the million dollar (ok, maybe not million dollar) question is: Is it real?

It's authentic.
 
I am new to this blog. I am trying to find out if a bag is authentic, but it won't let me create a thread on my own. I am not able to download and submit the correct form. I am wanting to buy a LV Onatah Fleur GM on Karen Koopers site. She says it is a prototype and does not have a date code, but is authentic. Can anyone help me? I have been burned before. Thanks!!:D
 
We've seen a few bags that look like this:

$(KGrHqJ,!o4E9dBBZBphBPZ38b7e3!~~60_58.JPG


and we know they're counterfeit because KS never made a bag with a pinked edge. Well...after a trip to my local outlet store, guess what I saw?? Sadly, they wouldn't let me photo the bag, but there is now a line that does have a pinked edge!

The bags are part of the Ocean Drive collection. There is a small Coal, available in black patent and doe patent. The lining on both is hot pink and cream stripe (the same we see on the Ocean Drive striped bags) and it has a zip closure. The label is on a gold metal label, no rivet points, with the logo embossed into the metal. The line also includes totes in the Ocean Drive hot pink and cream stripe, which is very cute! That bag closes with a 1 inch wide grosgrain ribbon. It will be easy to spot the authentic versus the fake.
