This here Yves Saint Laurent, YSL, they call it, that LE CARRé SATCHEL BAG, it’s a real fancy thing, ain’t it? I seen them in them specialty stores, all shiny and new. Cost more than a month’s worth of groceries, I reckon. But folks, they sure do love ’em.
You see them young girls, totin’ ’em around like they’re somethin’ special. I guess they are, in a way. Made with that real nice leather, soft like a baby’s behind. They got that fancy gold buckle, too. Shines brighter than my old dentures after a good scrubbin’.
Now, this YSL LE CARRé SATCHEL BAG, it ain’t just one kinda bag. They got all sorts. Some big, some small. Some plain, some with all them fancy doohickeys on ’em. I seen one once, it was black, all smooth and shiny. They called it “BLACK LE CARR satchel in BOX SAINT LAURENT”. Sounded like a mouthful to me. Just a black bag, I say!
- Saint Laurent Le Carr Bags, all kinds, they got.
- Some black, some brown, maybe even red, who knows?
- Shiny buckles, fancy straps, the whole nine yards.
- You can get them at them fancy stores in the city.
I heard tell, you can get these bags online, too. On them inner-webs. Don’t ask me how, I just heard it from the neighbor’s girl. She’s always on that there phone, clickin’ away. Says she found a specialty store online selling them YSL bags. Said it was called “My Theresa” or somethin’ like that. Sounds like a person’s name to me, not a store. But what do I know?
They say this Yves Saint Laurent, it’s a big deal. Like them fancy brands the movie stars wear. They say it’s “exclusive” and “luxury”. Means expensive, I reckon. But folks sure do buy ’em. Must be nice to have that kinda money to throw around. I’d rather spend it on a good pie, myself.
They got other bags too, this Saint Laurent does. I heard about one called “Le 5 to 7”. Sounds like a time of day to me. Maybe it’s for when you go out after supper? Who knows. They say it comes in all sorts of different types. Like with that snake skin, they call it “python”. And “calfskin” that’s like a baby cow’s skin, ain’t it? Land sakes, the things they make these days.
Now, if you buy one of these here YSL LE CARRé SATCHEL BAGs and you don’t like it, you can send it back. They say it’s “complimentary”. Means free, I guess. And they give you a label, all ready to go. Just stick it on and send it back. But don’t go usin’ some other way to send it, they say. They’re particular about that, these fancy folks.
They got a special time, I hear, around Christmas, when you can send things back even later. Like till the end of January. If you buy it ‘tween November 29th and December 31st, you got more time to decide. That’s good, I reckon. Gives you time to think if you really need a bag that costs more than a used car.
These YSL bags, especially the LE CARRé one, they’re all the rage, I suppose. Everyone wants one, it seems. They’re like a status symbol, whatever that means. Shows you got money, I guess. Or maybe you just like pretty things. Nothin’ wrong with that, I reckon. We all like pretty things.
But me? I’m happy with my old handbag. It’s got a few scratches, and the zipper sticks sometimes, but it holds everything I need. My wallet, my keys, my hard candy. What more does a body need, really?
- You can return the bag if you don’t like it.
- They give you a special label to use.
- Around Christmas, you got longer to return it.
- These Saint Laurent bags are real popular.
But if you got your heart set on one of them YSL LE CARRé SATCHEL BAGs, you go right ahead. Just make sure you get it from a good specialty store, whether it’s in the city or on that there inner-webs. And make sure you really love it, ’cause it’s gonna cost ya a pretty penny.
Now, I gotta go. My stories are gettin’ long, and my biscuits are probably burnin’ in the oven. Just remember what I said about them YSL bags. They’re fancy, they’re expensive, and they’re all the rage. But at the end of the day, it’s just a bag, ain’t it? A place to put your stuff. Don’t let them fancy names and shiny buckles fool ya.
