Hi. I bought what looks like an older but in excellent condition kate spade bag from a consignment store. There is no tag on the inside, just a tiny gold spade. Lining is black and white striped. Does anyone know if this is how the older bags were made? Also, does anyone know what the name of this purse is?Thanks!

Not an older bag, but a newer one, actually. And we'd need more pics to see what the bag looks like.
 
Here are some photos-hope this helps. I really just would like to know what the name of this purse is. Thanks!

Hello, lovely aficionados of Kate Spade!

$(KGrHqZ,!jQFCepln)uPBQwTn5N+(w~~60_57.JPG






























I hope it's o.k. to post an authenticate request here. I can't figure out how to start a post separately (!).

I just bought this supposed Kate Spade bag, but only afterwards have I been reading about fakes. <sigh> I didn't know they were out there!

Anyway, I found this very cute yellow bag
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=251491909421

And out of curiosity started to read more about how the logo evolved from this (I thought it was vintage) to the current labels. Well, I didn't find anything on this logo, so I am suspecting the bag is a knock-off.

THEN I found a great blog on how to recognize fake KS bags, and it reads,
" 5) Kate Spade does not make patchwork purses, backpacks or purses with two small pockets on the front. Although patchwork purses are popular right now, the company hasn't made this product in years"

GULP.

So I am hoping against against hope it might be authentic.

Has anyone ever seen this logo or can you tell me if the bag is a fake?
