That Yves Saint Laurent YSL ENVELOPE BAG, oh boy, it’s somethin’ else! I seen it all over, you know. Fancy folks carryin’ it around. Now, they call it a “remake” and an “original order”. What does that even mean? Sounds fishy to me!
This here bag, it used to be just called YSL, plain and simple. Then, I heard, some fancy pants named He-dee, or somethin’ like that, went and changed it. Changed it to “Saint Laurent” in 2012. Why fix what ain’t broke, I always say! These city folks and their fancy names.
Now, this YSL ENVELOPE BAG, it’s got a flap, like an envelope you get in the mail. And a chain, a shiny chain strap. And some kinda stitching on it, looks like those arrows we used to draw in the dirt when we were kids. They call that, what was it… “chevron” I think. Fancy word for lines, if you ask me.
They say this fella named An-ton-ee, another fancy name, he made this ENVELOPE BAG thing back in… oh, what was it… 2018, I think. For somethin’ called “Resort”. What in tarnation is a “Resort”? Sounds like somethin’ only rich folks do.
I heard tell, you gotta watch out for fakes! Yep, folks out there makin’ copies of this here YSL ENVELOPE BAG. Tryin’ to trick ya! They say you gotta look at the writin’. If the “SAINT LAURENT” and “PARIS” are the same size, somethin’ ain’t right. And the dust bag! They say the real one ain’t rough. The fake one is all rough and cheap feelin’. Who woulda thought, a bag for your bag, even has to be fancy.
And the space! They say you gotta measure the space between somethin’ on the bag. The real YSL bag, the space is supposed to be 23, maybe 25, somethin’ called millimeters. Like them little bugs! The fake one, the space is smaller. Who comes up with this stuff? It’s all too much for me.
There are like, I don’t know, a whole bunch of ways to tell if it’s a fake YSL College Bag. That’s another one of them fancy names they got for it. You gotta be a detective to figure out if you got the real deal. Too much work if you ask me.
I seen them sellin’ these Yves Saint Laurent ENVELOPE BAG things on some fancy website. They call it “official”. Got all these pictures of the bags, lookin’ all shiny and new. They even say this bag is in remembrance of her iconic work. That some lady’s bag before. Must have been some important lady to have a bag named after her. Probably another one of them city folks, I reckon.
Here are some things I heard people say about this bag:
- “Oh, it’s the perfect size!”
- “It goes with everything!”
- “It’s so classic!”
- “I saved up for months to buy it!”
- “It makes me feel so fancy!”
Me? I don’t need no fancy YSL ENVELOPE BAG to feel good. I got my old trusty bag, and it does just fine. It holds my things, and that’s all that matters. But hey, if you got the money to spend on one of these original order things, then you go right ahead. Just watch out for those fakes! Don’t want to be throwin’ your money away on some cheap knock-off.
These fancy bags, they’re all the rage these days. Everywhere you look, someone’s got one. But me, I’m happy with what I got. Don’t need no remake of any fancy name bag. My old one is good enough. It’s seen me through thick and thin, and it ain’t never let me down.
So, that’s my two cents on this whole Yves Saint Laurent YSL ENVELOPE BAG business. Too much fuss over a bag if you ask me. But, to each their own, I always say. To each their own.
I still don’t get what’s so special about it. Is it the chain? Is it the name? Is it the little lines? I don’t know. But I reckon some folks just like to have fancy things. And that’s alright. I am happy with my simple bag and life.
