Thank you! I know nothing about KS but this bag looks great.

Do you have any idea about how old it is?

I'm not sure when the original Nylon collection came out, but it's been around for awhile. I got a new Sam early last year from the website, so it's been available off and on. The last time I saw a Claire for retail was in 2005. The bag in your post is in excellent shape!

Would be grateful for your help in authenticating this please!
According to the seller it's a Kate Spade Noel Benjamin and is the only pic I have at the moment. Thanks!

I got this bag @ a thrift store. I live in a wealthy area so I would not be shocked if someone tossed a KS bag ... I don't do anything FAUX but fur so... from the best of my research what I have found is faux. The label looks authentic but I read it is the straps that are the dead giveaway. I am not a pro @ KS's work or archives ... FAUX? OR GOOD 2 GO?

Thanks for confirming that for me . What are the tell tale signs you see so I can beware in the future. :D

Definitely the straps, as you already noticed. Also, the "p" on the label is way too big and too close to the "s", and the inside tag that says USA is completely wrong.

Have you checked out Kat's site ihatecounterfeitbags.info? There is a plethera of info on the labels, the 'made in' tags, fabrics, etc. It's a great place for research!
