Well, well, well, lookie here! You wanna hear about this fancy YSL COLLEGE BAG, huh? The one they sell in them big, fancy stores? They call it “official flagship store,” whatever that means. Sounds expensive, right? Remake Yves Saint Laurent? They always remake something, those fashion people. This one, they call it COLLEGE, maybe for them young girls going to learnin’ school.
I seen a girl carryin’ one the other day, all shiny and new. It was black, like the night sky. A good color, won’t show the dirt much. I hear folks sayin’ you can use it everyday. That’s good, you want somethin’ you can use, not just look at. And they say it can hold a lot of things. Useful for ladies like us, always carrying something around.
This YSL, they say it’s fancy. Real fancy. Like them movie stars wear. I don’t know about all that. But I do know it costs a pretty penny. These city folk, they like to spend money on things like this. They say it holds its value. Like gold, I reckon. These bags is like money in the bank, they tell me. Maybe it is, for them that’s got it. These rich folks got their own ways.
They say this Saint Laurent fella, he’s the one who made it okay for women to wear pants. Imagine that! Pants! We always wore dresses back in my day. But times change, I guess. He changed the whole darn fashion thing, they say. Made it all different back in the 60s and 70s. Long time ago. Time sure does fly, don’t it?
- This YSL bag, it’s got pockets.
- One in the back, they say.
- And one with a zipper, right in the middle.
- Keeps things neat, I suppose.
This YSL COLLEGE BAG, it is simple. Like them old-timey bags. But nice. Real nice. Not too flashy, just… classy. That’s what they call it. Classy. Good for any time, I reckon. Day or night. And this kind of bag, it just looks better with age, like a good wine.
Why are these bags so darn expensive? They say it’s ’cause of the materials. Fancy leather, I guess. And the work. Takes a lot of work to make somethin’ so fine, they say. And somethin’ about the economy. Prices go up and down, like the price of eggs at the market. Everything costs more these days.
This Saint Laurent place, they got a store online. A whole store, just on the computer! Can you believe it? They got all kinds of things. Bags, clothes, shoes. All fancy stuff. More than I could ever need. But it’s somethin’ to see, I tell ya. It is amazing. Never seen things like this when I was young.
Folks say this YSL is like another bag. Some Louis Vuitton thing. I don’t know much about that one. They all look the same to me, these fancy bags. But people like ’em. They like to carry ’em around, show ’em off. It is a big deal to some people. The rich like these things, to show off their money, I think.
This YSL bag, it’s got that YSL thing on it. Big and bold. Even after they changed the name. Took the “Yves” out. Just Saint Laurent now. This new fella, Anthony somethin’, he’s in charge now. Keeps an eye on things, they say. Makes sure it’s all just right, this Anthony does. They say he is good, making sure everything is perfect. These people, they really care about these bags.
I seen a picture of some famous girl carryin’ a Saint Laurent bag. Hailey somethin’. She’s a big star, I hear. Even the stars like these bags. They say people buy these bags as a big treat. Or to add to all the other ones they got. Must be nice to have so many, huh? These bags, they are a symbol, I think. Like a trophy, for some.
This YSL COLLEGE BAG, it’s somethin’ else. It’s more than just a bag, I reckon. It is a statement, they say. It’s a piece of somethin’ special. A piece of history, maybe. Or somethin’ like that. It’s a lot of money, that’s for sure. But for some folks, it’s worth it. They like to have nice things. And this, well, this is one of the nicest, I guess.
You want one of these YSL COLLEGE BAG? Well, you better start savin’ your pennies. It’ll cost ya. But if you got the money, and you want somethin’ fancy, somethin’ special, well, then maybe this is the bag for you. It is pretty, I’ll give it that.
