Talking about YSL bags, does anyone have this bag? I saw it in selfridges last week and fell in love, but I am unsure if the clasp, which is my favourite part, will end up annoying me or breaking.

This is number one on my wish list. Planning on purchasing early next year (I hope). I’ve watched a couple of review videos, I haven’t heard anyone say anything negative about the clasp yet. But I’d also be interested to hear from anyone who has the bag.

Beautiful bag. I’m don’t have that bag but I do have YSL E/W tote and it is so well made. It was my work bag back when I still went into the office and has had a lot of use - still looks immaculate though.

A lovely bag… I don’t have it but I do have a cabas chyc which has a similar clasp. I have no issues with it. It does get scratched but it’s not noticeable when worn- aside from that no issues. Also I don’t think the scratching is a quality issue as I have the same issue with my Hermes Constance clasp x

Have you guys seen this? I know a lot of people don’t like the LV due to it being common and overdone especially with fakes out there but it’s still such iconic print to me. I would be sad if they removed it completely. My fave monogram bags that I own are the petite Malle and mini boite chapeu.

I like left bag too.
Hand cream fingers will ruin the matte and I love the skin and richness of the colour used on the shiny one more.

I think this was originally said by FoxyLV but then somebody emailed Customer Services who denied it and said that it was incorrect etc etc. Only time will tell but I do think it’s a mistake to stop selling online. You end up with the two tier system as we have with Chanel where people who want to buy can’t because others are buying for resale and then selling online at double the price.

LV probably want a two tier system. They hate proles buying the small leather goods in mono and want to move up market.

I saw sellier Knightsbridge post about this the other day I don’t remember the exact wording she used though and if it was confirmed or not. I don’t think they will remove canvas completely just won’t sell online.

I buy from Farfetch all the time and they are based in the EU. Don't know why you think customs would be an issue.
I was talking about 24s not farfetch. Customs policies vary from retailer to retailer so its important to establish before buying if they are DDP or DAP. Some have chosen not to ship to uk anymore, others expect their customers to pay the duty (DAP), others like farfecth will have no doubt priced in the extra cost into their total price or absorbed the cost of it not to lose customers (DDP). I'm not sure what 24s policy is as I only bought from them before 2021.

I never buy anything from Europe anymore regardless of customs, more often than not its a lot more expensive and the pound is so week. I'm lucky that my job allows me to travel to the EU once every few months so I can buy in store and pay the lower price with VAT excluded.

I have the Sarah Empreinte LV in blue.
I love it. It’s stays in shape. Still looks brand new. Very timeless.
Only downside it can be too large for my small bags.
What have you been looking at?
