The real scoop on Juicy Couture:

Come on’ now people, Juicy Couture is not as expensive as Dior, Channel, Louis Vuitton, Marc Jacobs, D&G … Why buy fakes?

An authentic purse cost around $150 – $600. Some of the Juicy bags are quite expensive due to their materials such as soft leather.

Authenticity of Juicy Couture (according to me — based on my observations)

• if you are paying for a purse that is over $200, check out how it is made; it should be flawless, perfect and sturdy. Their shouldn’t be any run-on stitches or lopsided handles.
• Do some research on a certain bag that you like. Online bag forums are available. Also you can check JuicyCouture.com for any questions you have.
• Check out the ‘J’ inside and outside the bag. It should be perfect! The stitching has to be precise no run-ons.
• I think I have not seen any Juicy couture made from plastic material (except the beach bag which is pretty big and it includes towels, mats — depending on the design.)
• Most of their materials are either terrycloth, velour, nylon, or leather
• Juicy will almost always have “BLINGS” in their purses like having a huge soft ball made from velour, pleated scarf, a huge ring, mirror inside the purse … etc..
• Also, Juicy bags are soft!! I think that’s one of Juicy’s signature, their softness …
• Check out the inside (lining) of the bag. It should have the same color as the ‘exterior’ of the bag.

• Check out their tags! Most of Juicy’s retail tags are rectangle that are in a vertical position. Also, they have the manufacturers price printed.

So far thats all I have noticed, if you have any additions… please feel free to add on my comment box!

Good Luck on your Juicy Hunting!
