This bag is the dark green that RM had i think on Friday at the Sample Sale. It was truly a sample- the color never went into production. We just know the color as dark green, and its not the emerald because it is really close to black. Here is a pic that DEE emailed to me as i was definitely contemplating this bag...

I purchased this RM MAB from ebay and I just received the bag today.The seller seemed so nice and willing to answer all my questions.The bag was said to have been used twice...it looks worn.
My main question is did RM ever make"naked" tassels and did she attach tassels to YKK zippers?
Also the REBECCA MINKOFF nameplate on the inside of the bag is silver,I've only seen gold ones so I'm not sure.Could someone check this out for me?Thanks.

Hi Tomifey,

What do you mean by "naked" tassels? Also I'm not an expect on the older styles. You might want to PM Gung, since she has a ton of the older bags. But from looking through the MAB/MAM pictures thread, it looks like the tassels should be connected to the rings and not a YYK zipper pull. Could this be a sample?

I'm sorry for my poor explanation...yes,by naked tassels I meant not attached to rings...also wondering about the tassels attached to the YKK zipper.

I found this picture(Navy MAM) and the tassels are not attached to rings but what about the YKK zipper? It is driving me nuts thinking she modified the bag and tried to hand it off to me in an almost new condition:cursing:

Yes.. the older tassels were skinny and plain (no rings on the end).. I'm assuming that is what you mean by "naked".. This bag is from a very early season I think.. As for the brass hardware and silver nameplate -- that is just weird. No idea what to say about that unless this person got it at a ss and then it would actually make sense!

I am interested in this because i ordered one from funkylala. How would the tassels look compared to the older version?
Tomifey, I think the bag is beautiful, and if you got a great price thats fantastic. However, if you are not totally happy with it you should tell the seller ,or sell it on ebay. Gung can really help you out with this. Maybe some of the other minkettes have the same bag and you can compare. Check the pics of mams and compare.

Hi ladies.. I thought I start a thread so everyone had a place to go if they needed help identifying a color/ style/ lining etc..

Forgive me if this thread is already started but I haven't been able to find one.

I'll start:

Here a bag on ebay that appears to have both old & new hardware. I'm guessing that one picture is borrowed or something but what struck me as odd is that in the very first picture you can't see any type of zipper pull.. No tassels.. no zipper pull.. nada!! What is up with this bag ladies??

hi Littlerock.. though the auction seems to have ended, the seller is a member of TPF. She mentioned her dark green MAB purchase in the Sample Sale thread - http://forum.purseblog.com/rebecca-minkoff/rm-sample-sale-big-reveal-post-your-loot-293793-61.html

hi tomifey, here is a thread started by Gung that lists some of the different interiors and the years/seasons they are from. Maybe that can shed some light as to just what season it is from and maybe can give some hints to it's age:confused1: http://forum.purseblog.com/rebecca-minkoff/rebecca-minkoff-bag-linings-reference-thread-271446.html

It doesn't look like a bag per se... more like a portfolio of some sort?? Can anyone identify? I love it!
