Neiman Marcus has a small brown spy. It's cute.

When I was in the Fendi store in New Jersey, the SA told me that the regular spy is over 2000 dollars. There was one that was slightly smaller that they had in stock. That's what I thought this one was because of the price. I could be wrong though. It sure is pretty.

Jess is the blue more of the paddington blue...or lighter?

It was darker than the Chloe bag that I saw in the store....but the shade and darkness of blue varies throughout the Spy bag. It's darker on the handles where it's woven. on the woven side seams and where it has the "turtle" texture.

Did I mention I LOVE THIS BAG?!? I had three people stop me on the street today after work....it's a great color because it doesn't scream out at you and goes with everything.

No trouble at all....it's the "regular" size, just like the brown pictured above.

It's a good size bag- it fits under your arm, but it's very very large inside.

Oh and would it go with teal, the blue bag?

As far as I know the spy came in only two sizes. The regular which is sometimes called the medium and the large.

There's a spy clutch but that's different altogether.

ETA: the bag that Neiman Marcus above describes as small spy is actually what the Fendi boutiques call the regular or medium.

A complement to Taitai's info: the regular/medium is the bag everyone is carrying around. The large one is very well....large!!

AThe large one is very well....large!!

Ditto! I tried the Zucca Spy in large size at the boutique, I look like I'm all set to board a plane B) ! The large Spy would make a cool hand luggage, but I'm not sure whether the woven handles could take the weight if you carry lots of heavy stuff..

I called Fendi boutique to ask about the blue spy bag and they said it comes out in Septemeber i asked about the size and price, they said they only had one size and the price is for $2080

Intrigue, try to see the bag in person before you decide. I personally thought it looked better in photos. The white leather is the type that gets dirty really easily (I saw a bag that had briefly been on display and it already had dirt marks) and this version of the spy had this weird sheen that made it look somewhat unappealing.

^ Yes I felt the same way with the white one. The leather used is different from the leather used in other colours and I don't like the weird sheen as well.

The displays in my local boutiques have already turned yellowish.

Same, I noticed the sheen in pictures, and it doesn't have that turtilish texture to it either. Thats becuase it uses lizard skin, while the other bags use some other type of leather.

White leather = Yellow leather with time. It happens with all leather bags... it sucks.

Silly question, because I don't have any Fendi spys nearby in person to view.... does the bag have a closure at the top? I mean, a magnetic clasp or anything, or does the top part just fold over and you rely on gravity to hold it in place?

it's not real lizard skin -- it's leather that's stamped or treated to look like snake or lizard.

there's no closure because the bag doesn't need one -- the opening is relatively small and the flap/coin purse thingy is heavy enough to keep your things inside.
