I bought my first Kate Spade bag from a vendor on the street near Dupont Circle in DC. I thought it looked pretty good and got lots of compliments until I saw the real thing and realized how cheezy mine looked by comparison. At least mine was a copy of an authentic design. There are lots of them sold at bag parties that are cute, but c'mon, Kate Spade has never made a bag with a thin stripe and a bow sewn on.
Then I learned that Kate Spade is a Kappa, and just can't buy the fakes anymore. (Gotta support a sister!) Though, I love to find them on ebay and at Saxs Off Fifth at 1/3 of the price.
