Well, let me tell ya about these fancy bags, the Yves Saint Laurent ones, yeah, the “Envelope” kind. I saw some city folks carryin’ ’em, all shiny and whatnot. Heard they call ’em YSL for short. Fancy, I tell ya.
Where to Find ‘Em, If You Got the Dough
Now, I ain’t never bought one myself, mind you. Too pricey for my blood. But I hear tell you can get ’em at them high-falutin’ stores like Neiman Marcus. They got all sorts of colors and sizes, I reckon. The small ones, they say, go for somethin’ like $575. Lordy, that’s a lot of hay! And they even ship it to ya for free, if you spend enough, more than fifty bucks they say.
Bloomingdale’s, that’s another place. Heard they got ’em too. Big ones, small ones, all with that shiny YSL thingy on ’em. Some cost near a thousand dollars! Can you believe it? A thousand dollars for a bag! I could buy a whole cow for that much.
- Neiman Marcus – Them fancy folks got all the colors.
- Bloomingdale’s – Bags big and small, if your pockets are deep.
Used Ones, Maybe?
If you ain’t got a money tree growin’ in your backyard, like me, you might could find a used one. Heard tell there’s places online, like Fashionphile and Vestiaire Collective, where folks sell their old bags. Might be a little worn, but hey, it’s still a YSL, right? Saves ya a few pennies, I guess. You gotta watch out though, make sure it ain’t a fake. Them city slickers, they’ll try to sell you anything.
How to Spot a Real One, or So They Say
Now, I ain’t no expert, but I heard things. They say you gotta look at the tag. Real ones got a special number, see? Older bags got twelve numbers, newer ones got letters and numbers, all mixed up. And it’s only one row of numbers, not two. If it’s got two rows, it’s a fake, they say. And that shiny YSL thing, it’s gotta be just right, not crooked or nothin’. You gotta be careful, I tell ya. Don’t want to get swindled.
The YSL Envelope Bag, It’s a Big Deal, I Guess
Folks say it’s a classic, this Envelope bag. Been around a long time, I reckon. That YSL thing, it’s easy to spot, even from far away. And they make all kinds of ’em, different colors, different leathers. Some even got snake skin, can you believe it? Snake skin! Must be real fancy. And they say it’s a good investment, whatever that means. Like buyin’ land, I guess, only it’s a bag. Goes up in value, maybe?
A Little Bit of History, So They Say
Heard tell there was this fella, Hedi Slimane, he changed things up a bit. Changed the name, even. Used to be Yves Saint Laurent, now it’s just Saint Laurent Paris. And he made the bags a little different, more modern-like, I guess. I don’t know much about it, but that’s what I heard. Made ’em look edgier, they say. Whatever that means.
Looking for Deals Around Town, Maybe?
Sometimes, if you’re lucky, you can find ’em used, right here in town. I heard tell they sell ’em in Komatke and West Chandler. Used, mind you, but maybe you can get a good price. Gotta haggle, though. Don’t let ’em rip you off. Tell ’em you ain’t got all day, and you’ll walk away if they don’t give you a fair price. That’s what my old man used to say, bless his heart.
Special Bags, For Special Folks, I Reckon
So, that’s the lowdown on them YSL Envelope bags, as far as I know. Fancy things, for fancy folks with deep pockets. If you got the money, go for it, I say. If not, well, there’s always lookin’, right? Window shoppin’ don’t cost nothin’. And who knows, maybe one day I’ll win the lottery and get myself one of them shiny bags. But until then, I’ll stick to my old canvas tote. It holds my groceries just fine.
Key things to remember ‘bout them YSL bags:
- Check them numbers, make sure it ain’t a fake.
- Look for wear and tear if you’re buying used.
- Don’t be afraid to haggle, especially if you ain’t in one of them fancy stores.
- And most important, make sure you really want it, ’cause that’s a whole lotta money for a bag, I tell ya.
Well, that’s all I got to say about that. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go feed the chickens.
