You know, that big-name bag, the YSL Envelope bag, it’s all the rage these days. Everybody wants one. I seen it on the TV, those fancy ladies carryin’ it around. I heard it called the Saint Laurent. Sounds like some fancy saint, don’t it? I don’t know much about saints, but I know a pretty bag when I see one.
This here YSL Envelope bag, it’s somethin’ special. That big old YSL on the front, shiny like a new penny. And the leather, oh, it’s soft, like a baby’s behind. They say it’s metal-free, whatever that means. Good for the cows, I reckon. I heard some folks call it the “Cassandre”. I don’t know nothin about no Cassandre. I just call it the YSL Envelope Bag. That’s what everyone wants, ain’t it?
Now, you wanna get one of these YSL Envelope bags, you gotta be careful. Lots of folks out there tryin’ to sell you a fake one. They look real, but they ain’t. It’s like buyin’ a pig in a poke. You think you’re gettin’ a good deal, but you end up with somethin’ worthless. I heard those young’uns talk about these “fake bags”. It’s a shame what people will do for money.
So, how you gonna know if it’s real? Well, that’s the hard part. I heard you gotta look at the stitches. They gotta be neat and tidy, not all loose and crooked. And the YSL, it’s gotta be just right. Not too big, not too small. Just like Goldilocks’ porridge! If it don’t look right, it probably ain’t.
And the inside, they say it’s made with that organic cotton. Sounds fancy, don’t it? Like somethin’ you’d grow in your garden. I don’t know much about that, but I know it feels nice. Soft like a cloud. And the leather, it’s all tanned special. They say it’s better that way. Better for what, I don’t know. But I figure them rich folks know what they’re doin’.
This YSL Envelope bag comes in all sizes, too. Big ones, little ones. They got one they call the “Large,” big enough to fit your whole life in there, I reckon. Good for work, they say. I don’t work no more, but I used to. Carried my lunch in a brown paper bag. Not fancy like this YSL, but it did the job.
- Large YSL Envelope Bag
- Small YSL Envelope Bag
- Medium YSL Envelope Bag
Then they got the “Small” one. Just big enough for your lipstick and your powder. And maybe a little somethin’ somethin’ for a rainy day. They even got a “Wallet” one. Tiny little thing. I don’t know what you can fit in there, but it sure is cute.
I heard these YSL Envelope bags, they cost a pretty penny. More than I ever made in a month, that’s for sure. But folks, they seem to think it’s worth it. They say it’s an “investment.” Like buyin’ land or a good milk cow. I don’t know about all that. But I do know it’s a beautiful bag. And if you got the money, and you want one, well, then you should get one.
Just make sure you’re buyin’ it from a good place. Some place where they sell real things. Not some fella on the street corner tryin’ to make a quick buck. You gotta be smart these days. Lots of folks out there tryin’ to take advantage of you. They see you comin’ a mile away, an old lady like me.
But I’m not so easily fooled. I may be old, but I’m not stupid. I know a good thing when I see it. And this YSL Envelope bag, it’s a good thing. It’s a real good thing. And I seen some folks around here, even in Lake Mills, sellin’ these bags, both new and used. Used ain’t bad, you know. Sometimes it’s better. Like a good pair of shoes, all broken in and comfy.
So, if you’re thinkin’ about gettin’ one of these YSL Envelope bags, you just remember what I told ya. Be careful where you buy it. Make sure it’s real. And if it makes you happy, well, then that’s all that matters. ‘Cause in the end, that’s what it’s all about, ain’t it? Bein’ happy. And carryin’ a beautiful bag.
They also got this other kind, a YSL Bucket Bag. Not my style. But some folks like it. I’m an Envelope bag person. Always have been, always will be. Reminds me of sendin’ letters to my boy when he was in the army. Good times. Good times.
Anyway, that YSL Envelope bag, it sure is somethin’. Somethin’ special. Just like them fancy folks on TV. Maybe one day, I’ll get me one. A big one. Big enough to fit all my dreams in. And then I’ll be just like them fancy ladies. Carryin’ my YSL, walkin’ down the street, head held high. Yeah, that’s the life. That’s the life for me. This old lady’s gonna get herself a YSL Envelope bag. You just wait and see. You just wait and see.
