Fendi Spy Bag

Fendi Spy Bag
We all have been with the Fendi Spy Bag as it has taken its ups and downs in the handbag world. What I love about the Spy is that it is different. The look of the bag is not similar to any other. The handles set it apart with the knot detailing. The shape has become household; we all know it. And as I have watched the Spy go from the hottest bag to less desirable, I have noticed that there is still a huge following of the Fendi Spy Bag. To be honest I continue to carry my Spy bag and love it! It is chic and my version, in honey, is able to be worn year around. The Fendi Spy has been re-invented hundreds of times, in different colors, leathers, materials, there was even a luscious Fendi Alligator Spy. There have been huge misses, like the Fendi Sequin Spy Bag, but the fact remains that this bag has held its own for years. So if you ask me, while it may not be at the peak of its curve, the Fendi Spy Bag is a classic bag that will always be recognizable and always be something a little different from the mainstream. There is a new color at Net A Porter, a stunning hue of purple, dubbed plum. Buy through NAP for $2,250.

This bag is amazing….I agree with you!

I have to agree with you about The Spy. This is one of those catch-22 bags, in that it’s so ubiquitous on the fake market that when carrying it people can’t tell the difference. But, that wouldn’t stop me from carrying it.
Also to be mentioned is the craft put into the leather. This bag, when empty weighs less than a pound. It’s amazing, and it’s a classic.

My heart skips a beat when I see The Spy! It’s beautiful and unique…I completely agree it’s a classic:)
I always want to buy this bag…as budding fashionista it is important for me to spend on classics…i think this bag is it…however, I agree with one blogger i see so many fakes that it is annoying, therefore i always second guess my purchase
Beautiful colour!!
Love the colour!
Don’t be deterred by the copies others choose to wear. The fakes are so obvious and disgusting!!! The bag is simply a classic and the leather is truly gorgeous, so go get it if you want it. I have two - honey and zucca print- love um!!!
the Fendy Spy Bag is a staple! it’s edgy yet classy at the same time, its so versatile!
I´m a downer again,but I have never liked any versions of this bag. It is just so baggy. Maybe this bag looks ok on a short person, but I can´t imagine carrying something like this.
Once upon a time I was really into this bag. Now, not so much. Can’t see myself buying one and it is not a classic for me. Sorry.
This bag is fabulous…although a lilttle pricy…there are great bags that look similar on artfulwears.com…it’s a great site..check it out!
I love the bag!!! Unfortunately at $2,000.00 +++ I could not get the original Fendi. I finally got myself the “inspired” Spy Bag and I love it.
I would like to say, not everyone can afford to spend $1,000 or $2,000 on a handbag. In todays economy I believe the list is only going to get longer…….. People should not get so offended by knockoffs / inspired styles what they should find offensive is the price of the designer bags.

omg! i hate ppl who bought fake ones…and ur using the term ‘inspired’ . . . oh,i wanna puke everything in my stomach out!!!
knockoff support child labor!
and if u cant afford the luxury brands goods, u can always go for the mid high end brands whom designs great bag too…
carrying a fake bag is such an insult to the original ones…
again…shame shame shame….
You are dead-on girl! This bag has become one of my “go-to” bags a veritable work horse if you will. I have to agree with ‘pjh’ , replicated looks aren’t that serious for me- my 21 year old niece having admired mine for a cpl. of years now-broke down and bought what I can only refer to as a ” helluva faux “. She recognized the importance of this bag and has vowed to own the Real Thing as soon as she pays off that student loan…….
i recently bought this bag and i’m in love with it!! i paid 4,000 for mine and i know it is pricey but worth every penny.
Well I think people who are upset about using a “fake” FENDI are probably mad because they paid up to 4,000 when they could have paid 100’s since some are very similar now a days
I would much rather save that money for my sons college fun then the FENDI bag..lol I have one that has exactly everything the real one has its leather and beautiful and guess what i got it for $30 hahaha! i would go to any girl that has the real one and put mine next to it and nobody would tell the difference i challenge somebody?? anybody?? and if my bag is real then i got a great deal 
some girls get all the luck in the world.
omg… $30?!?! where did u get it from?? I wana get one too!!!! I do buy branded stuffs but im not very into fendi…. Lol… but i love the design of this bag… n i dun mind carrying an “inspired” one…
I ever read from some site that “inspired” means it look alike but doesnt have the logo on the bag (eg the word FENDI)….
well “fake” is a different thing… it copies every details… exactly the same as original….
I wouldnt dare to carry a “fake” bag but I dont see any problem with an “inspired” bag… haha… everything has their “inspired” version… get on with it….
This is a beautiful bag. It’s such a wonderful addition to my collection. The bag itself looks great on any woman, whether she is in her 20’s to 30’s or even in her 40’s and 50’s. It’s my absolute fave. To all those who purchase “inspired” or “fake” or whatever terminology you feel comfortable using to justify your cheapie knockoff…most people who are into collecting handbags/fashionistas/etc…can tell. The stitching and quality of the leather is a dead giveaway. Honestly, what is the point of buying a knockoff? And honestly a $30 fake can’t possibly look good. For that price go buy a Nine West bag off a sale rack somewhere. It’ll probably look better.
