Alright, let’s yak about this YSL COLLEGE BAG thing, ya know, the one from that fancy store, Yves Saint Laurent. Folks call it YSL for short, sounds snappier, I guess. I ain’t no fashion expert, mind you, just a plain ol’ woman tryin’ to make sense of all this highfalutin stuff.
Now, I hear tell these bags, they ain’t cheap. Expensive, that’s the word. But some folks say if you go to Europe, Paris maybe, they’re a whole lot cheaper. Like, 20% cheaper, can you believe it? And if you’re from America, you can get some money back on the taxes, makes it even cheaper. Land sakes, that’s a lot of dough!
- So, what’s the deal with YSL and Saint Laurent? Are they different?
- Seems like they’re the same thing, just different names and the squiggly picture they put on things is a bit different.
- Confusin’, ain’t it? Like tryin’ to tell twins apart.
I saw on this here computer thing, they call it “Pinterest,” folks are all gaga over this COLLEGE BAG. Lots of pictures, different colors, different stuff they’re made of. Leather, they call it, and some fuzzy stuff, “suede” I think. The black, quilted one, that’s the one everyone wants, it seems. They got all sorts of sizes too, big and small, like Goldilocks and the three bears.
Now, if you’re lookin’ to buy one used, there’s places for that too. This “eBay” place, they got ‘em. And another store called “Nordstrom,” they got new ones. You can even go to the official YSL store, online or in a real brick-and-mortar store, to get your fix. Just search for “Saint Laurent Official Online” on that there computer thing, and it’ll pop right up.
I even seen some folks sellin’ these bags in a place called “Redmond.” Used ones and new ones, all sorts. But be careful, I reckon, there’s always folks tryin’ to trick you, sellin’ you somethin’ fake for the price of the real McCoy. You gotta be smart about it, you do.
The official flagship store, that’s where you get the real deal, I figure. But that’s gonna cost you a pretty penny. They got this whole “Y collection,” they call it. Purses, wallets, all sorts of fancy things. If you got the money, I guess it’s alright. Me, I’d rather spend my money on somethin’ more practical, like a good pair of shoes or a warm coat. But to each their own, I always say.
This COLLEGE BAG, it’s got a handle, so you can carry it in your hand. Some of ‘em are medium sized, some are large. They even got some with tags still on ‘em, brand spankin’ new. And some folks on eBay, they even give you free shippin’. Imagine that!
I tell you what, all this talk about fancy bags is makin’ my head spin. It’s a whole different world, this fashion world. But if you got the money and you like nice things, I guess it’s alright. Just remember, a bag is a bag, whether it costs five dollars or five thousand. It’s what you put in it that counts, that’s what my mama always said.
So, if you’re lookin’ to remake or buy a YSL COLLEGE BAG, do your research. Figure out what you want, how much you wanna spend, and where you wanna buy it from. And don’t let anyone fool you into payin’ more than it’s worth. That’s my two cents, for what it’s worth.
And remember, whether it says YSL or Saint Laurent, it’s all comin’ from the same place. Don’t get yourself all tangled up in knots over the name. Just pick the one you like, and if you can afford it, go for it. If not, well, there’s plenty of other bags out there just as good, maybe even better, that won’t break the bank. That’s the truth, plain and simple.
