Well, let me tell you somethin’ about that fancy YSL LE CARRé SATCHEL BAG. I seen it, and it’s somethin’. That there bag, it’s what them city folks like, I reckon. It’s got that, uh, YSL on it, big as day. You know, Yves Saint Laurent, that’s the whole shebang. Expensive stuff. This bag, they call it the LE CARRé, like some kinda French talk.
This here remake YSL bag, it’s all over them specialty stores now. You go in there, and they got it sittin’ pretty. They think they’re somethin’ with their fancy stores. It’s just a purse, far as I can tell. But it’s one of them YSL bags, so it’s gotta be somethin’ special, I guess. This one, it ain’t got nothin’ too fancy on the outside. The YSL brand is on there, but kinda small. Not like some of them other ones, all flashy and showy. It’s real leather though, feels like it.
They got this thing on the front, a little clip thing. Square, like they say, “carr.” Must be important, that clip. Holds the whole thing together, I suppose. And it’s got that Saint Laurent Paris written on it. Real small, gotta squint to see it. But it’s there. They make sure you know it’s a YSL LE CARRé SATCHEL. That name though, LE CARRé, sounds like somethin’ you’d eat, not carry around your stuff in.
I heard them say it’s a classic bag. I don’t know about classic, but it’s simple, I’ll give it that. Just a flap that goes over the front. And a strap, to put it over your shoulder. Like any other purse, really. But this one, it’s YSL, so it’s gotta be better, right? They say it’s the high-end materials. Whatever that means. Just looks like a regular bag to me, ‘cept it costs more than my whole house probably does.
- This YSL bag, it’s got that name, Yves Saint Laurent.
- They call this one the LE CARRé.
- It’s got a square clip on the front.
- It’s simple, not too flashy.
- But it’s expensive, real expensive.
Now, I seen other YSL bags. They got one, the 5 a 7, that’s popular now. It’s got a buckle. This LE CARRé, it ain’t got no buckle. Just that square clip. And they got others, with that big YSL right on the front. This one’s different. More quiet like. But still a YSL bag, don’t you forget it. They say it’s a shoulder bag. Well, yeah, you put it on your shoulder. What else you gonna do with it? Wear it on your head?
They got all kinds of these YSL bags. This remake Yves Saint Laurent. The Nolita, the Vicky, some tote bag thing. I don’t know nothin’ about those. But this LE CARRé, it’s the one they’re all talkin’ about now. It’s in all them specialty stores, I tell ya. You can’t swing a cat without hittin’ one of these YSL bags these days. And they’re all expensive. Real expensive.
This one lady, she was sayin’ it’s “timeless.” I don’t know what that means. It tells time? No, it don’t tell time. It’s just a bag. But they say it’s timeless. And clean. Well, yeah, it’s clean. It’s brand new. Better be clean for that price. They say it’s the craftsmanship. That’s why it’s so expensive. They make it real good, they say. With the finest fabrics and stuff. Silk and leather they say it is.
I seen them carryin’ it around, these city folks. Heads held high, like they’re some kinda royalty. Just ’cause they got a YSL LE CARRé SATCHEL BAG. It’s just a bag, people. But it’s a YSL, so I guess that makes ’em special. These YSL bags, they are really somethin’ else. It is real leather, I felt it. This LE CARRé, not a lot of room inside. Just flat in there. Not like some others that open up wide. This one, not so much. You can put your things in, but not too much.
They got it in different colors, too. I seen a brown one, they call it hazelnut. Sounds like somethin’ you’d put in your coffee. But it’s a color, I guess. For a bag. A YSL LE CARRé SATCHEL BAG. In hazelnut. Who woulda thought? They come up with all kinds of names for things these days. Just call it brown, I say. But no, it’s gotta be hazelnut. ‘Cause it’s a YSL, and it’s in them specialty stores. This YSL brand, it is popular, that is for sure.
