I put the YSL Easy studded bag under our Fall Trends article as a must have for Fall and it seemed to be everyone’s favorite bag of the feature. I requested the image from YSL and did not get it in time for the article (my SA at Bergdorf had to take a pic with his iPhone!). However, I finally received this image today and was told the YSL Paris office shot it just for Bag Snob. Now if that doesn’t make me feel warm and fuzzy inside I don’t know what will! I wonder if they’d agree to shoot a Kate Moss for YSL Bag Snob campaign. Won’t hurt to ask 😉 Anyway– back to this fabulous bag, I love the flat studded hardware– it’s subtle but makes a very powerful statement. Look how the light dances off the strategically placed flat studs. The logo Y is also less noticeable as part of this design, genius! The duffel shape is casual, timeless and functional for daily use. It is no wonder YSL is the King of Bags! Seriously, this is WAY better than the Coco duffel from Alexander Wang. The leather, the stud detail, on trend without being trendy. It’s a bag that you can use for many seasons past this one. The size is 14″x9″ and retails for $2,395. Yes, it’s a bit pricey but there is a lot of workmanship involved and as they say, you get what you pay for and in the case of our beloved YSL– the best studded bag of the season. It is not available online anywhere, you will have to call YSL in Beverly Hills to order– 310-271-4110. Or call 212-988-3821 if you’re on the East Coast. This is sure to sell out, call now!!!
