Alright, let’s gab a bit about this here… uh… Remake Yves Saint Laurent YSL COLLEGE BAG Purchasing thingy. Don’t rightly know what all them fancy words mean, but I reckon it’s about gettin’ one of them YSL bags without spendin’ a king’s ransom, ain’t it?
Now, I seen these young gals in town, always totin’ around them fancy purses. Shiny leather, big ol’ letters on ’em, looks like they cost more’n my whole henhouse. And I hear tell they call ’em YSL bags. Some kinda College somethin’-or-other. Sounds right uppity to me.
But listen here, I ain’t no fool. I ain’t gonna pay no two thousand dollars for a bag, not when I can get a good, sturdy one down at the general store for twenty. But I get it, you young folks wanna look nice. So, if you’re set on one of them YSL bags, but your pocketbook’s lookin’ a little thin, like mine always is, then maybe we can find a way to get somethin’ similar without breakin’ the bank. We call that “remakin'” somethin’ in my day.
- First off, you gotta figure out what you really like about that YSL bag. Is it the puffy leather? Them big letters on the front? The shape? Once you know that, you can start lookin’ for somethin’ similar, but cheaper.
- Second, don’t go straight to them fancy stores in the city. They’ll charge you an arm and a leg just for lookin’ at ya. Try lookin’ online, or in them little shops down the back streets. You might find somethin’ just as good, but for a whole lot less money. I hear tell there’s places sellin’ what they call “dupes.” Sounds kinda sneaky, but if it saves a dollar, I ain’t complainin’.
- Third, don’t be afraid to get a little creative. Maybe you can find an old bag at a yard sale and fix it up. Or maybe you can even make your own bag! Now, I ain’t much of a sewer myself, but my granddaugher, she’s real handy with a needle and thread. She could probably whip somethin’ up that looks just as good, maybe even better, than one of them YSL bags.
Now, I hear these YSL bags, this here “College” one and some others like “Lou Lou” and that “Monogram Wallet” thingy, they got all sorts of different looks. Some are plain, some are fancy, some got them snakey patterns on ’em. And the prices, they go up and down like a fiddler’s elbow. They say these bags cost less over in Europe, in a place called Paris. But I ain’t flyin’ no where, too old for that nonsense. They say somethin’ ’bout a “VAT refund” makin’ ’em cheaper for folks from America. Sounds complicated. I reckon if you got the money to fly to Paris, you probably ain’t worried about savin’ a few bucks on a bag anyway.
And another thing, these bags, they ain’t even all made in the same place. Some are made here, some are made over there, who knows where. Just goes to show ya, you’re payin’ for the name, not the where it’s from. That’s what my old man always used to say, “Don’t pay for the name, pay for the goods.”
So, if you’re lookin’ to get a YSL College bag, or somethin’ like it, but you don’t wanna empty your piggy bank, here’s my advice: be smart, be patient, and don’t be afraid to get a little creative. You can find a good bag, a pretty bag, without payin’ a fortune. And remember, it ain’t the bag that makes the person, it’s the person that makes the bag…look good…or somethin’ like that. Anyways, you get the gist. Don’t go spendin’ your rent money on a purse, ya hear?
Now, I’ve been lookin’ around myself. I need a good bag, somethin’ I can carry everyday. Black, I reckon, goes with everything. And I don’t need nothin’ fancy, just somethin’ sturdy enough to hold my stuff and maybe a few extra apples for the grandkids.
So, you go on now, and find yourself a good bag. Don’t let them fancy stores fool ya, and don’t worry too much about what other folks think. You find somethin’ you like, somethin’ that fits your needs, and somethin’ you can afford, and that’s all that matters. And for heaven sakes, don’t go buyin’ nothin’ made of snake skin. Them critters got enough problems without losin’ their hides for a hand bag. That’s all I gotta say on this here… whatchamacallit…Remake Yves Saint Laurent YSL COLLEGE BAG Purchasing. You young folks and your fancy names.
