Re: Balenciaga Handbag: Please help authenticate purse!
I would vote fake on that one lilstrlett. The stitching looks off - it's not as obvious on a real bag. Additionally, the bales (curvey metal parts at the ends of the shoulder strap) look more square than rounded the way they should be.
Also, for that color - which looks like 05 sky blue, the hardware would be brass not silver. Silver hardware was only used for a short time in 03 and 04.
Here are a couple of pics of my light turquoise city (a fall 04 bag w/brass hardware).
