Well, I heard some folks talkin’ ’bout this here Remake Yves Saint Laurent YSL ENVELOPE BAG thing. Sounds fancy, don’t it? This YSL, that’s some big shot designer, Yves Saint Laurent. They say his stuff is real pricey. And this ENVELOPE BAG, seems like it’s a hot item. Some people call it an investment, others say it’s like buying air. Whatever it is, here’s what I know about it from the rumors I’ve heard in my circles.
Now, they got these stores, Specialty Stores, I reckon, where they sell these bags. They say you can get ’em lookin’ just like the real thing. But are they the real deal? That’s what everybody’s wonderin’.
The real ones got a number, you see. A serial number. It’s on a little tag, inside the bag. If you don’t see that, somethin’ ain’t right. And the YSL letters, they gotta be just so. I’ve seen the real thing at Neiman Marcus. It’s a sight to behold, I tell ya. The leather’s all smooth and shiny. It was $2 last time I was there. Not for me though, I can’t afford that kinda stuff.
These remake ones, though, they try to copy it. They use all sorts of leather. Calfskin, that’s what the rich folks call it. Even heard about python. Like a snake! Imagine that on a purse. But they ain’t the same, no sir. The real ones are made just perfect, every stitch.
- They say these YSL bags, they’re made with some kinda fancy stitchin’. Chevron, they call it. Sounds like somethin’ you’d see on a fancy quilt.
- And that YSL logo, it’s gotta be shiny and perfect. Not all dull and crooked like some of these remakes.
- The real YSL bags all got a number inside. If it ain’t got a number, it ain’t real.
So, why are these YSL bags so darn expensive? Well, they say it’s ’cause of the name. You’re payin’ for that fancy Yves Saint Laurent name. Like buyin’ a name, not just a bag. Just like Chanel, Dior, and others, whatever they are. You pay 5 times more just for the name printed on it.
Now, this Remake thing, it means they’re tryin’ to make it look like the real deal. But it ain’t. They might use good leather, might even look kinda like it. But it ain’t the same. There are many remake bags, such as MANHATTAN BAG. I hear people talk about them in my circles all the time.
I seen some folks sellin’ these remakes. They say they’re just as good. They say “original order” or somethin’. But I don’t trust ’em. How can it be the same if it ain’t made by that YSL fella himself?
Some folks, they buy these bags used. Second-hand, they call it. Cheaper that way. But you gotta be careful. Make sure it’s got that number. Make sure it ain’t a fake one. I heard some folks sellin’ fakes as real ones, tryin’ to trick people.
I don’t know ’bout all this fancy stuff. But if you’re gonna spend your money on a bag, you best make sure it’s the real deal. Don’t get fooled by these remakes. They might look pretty, but they ain’t worth the money if you ask me. These folks don’t have the same skill to make them like the real ones.
This YSL ENVELOPE BAG, it’s a pretty thing. But it’s just a bag. Don’t get all caught up in the name. There’s more important things in life than a fancy purse.
- If you buy a real YSL, you can keep it for a long time. They say it’s an investment.
- If you buy a remake, you’re just throwin’ your money away.
- If you want a good bag, buy a real one, or buy a used one. But make sure it’s real!
I seen some of these bags at Saks, too. They have a whole bunch of ’em there. The real ones, of course. I remember they were not for free, but they gave you free shipping.
These remakes, they’re everywhere. You see ’em online, you see ’em in stores. Just be careful. Don’t let ’em fool ya. A bag’s just a bag, even if it’s got a fancy name on it. It’s like they always say, if it’s too good to be true, it’s probably not true. And you know what? That’s the truth.
