Default Yves Saint Laurent Embroidered Linen Hobo

Yves Saint Laurent Embroidered Linen Hobo

Do any of you have blonde moments in life? I know that even if I were not blonde, I would still have these moments all the time. When I first was introduced to Yves Saint Laurent, I remember one thing that was oh-so-blonde (I will call it blonde, it was probably just naive). I pronounced the company name completely wrong, I mean completely wrong. Have you ever done that? And then realize later what a fool you must have looked like. I only knew names like Gucci, Prada, Louis Vuitton, but Yves was new to me at the time (I think I was around 15 or 16). With time I have not only learned how to pronounce the name of their company, but I have also learned to love many of their bags. For spring, they sure have one bag that is just making me want to take it home and admire it day and night.

The Yves Saint Laurent Embroidered Linen Hobo screams out spring with its use of linen fabric and chocolate floral appliqués, beading, and embroidery. This bag nearly has a vintage feel to it. To add more beauty to this bag, golden hardware and the YSL signature horn shoulder strap with rings are added to the bag. With such a creamy and divine feeling to it, I'm going to hope that someone decides to bring some Holiday cheer to me early on with a simple card that says, "I got you this bag because you are the most beautiful, smart, funny, lady I know!" Umm Mom, that sounds like something you would say, so would you please just do that for me too? Finished off with an open top snap closure my future bag will be ready for shipping 1/20/2006. Ok mom, you have plenty of time- and I won't even be mad if I get an intangible gift come Christmas morning. For any of you who are also head-over-heels in love or you are my mom, pre-order this bag via Bergdorf Goodman for $1995.
I'm absolutely in LOVE!!!!!

I love any YSL bag with the horn shoulder strap (esp the Mombasa model), so this is no exception! I love it, and I think the floral appliqués make it even more peculiar.

I'm SOOO tempted but I'm nervous about the linen. Leather and suede can 'age' nicely. Linen just gets dirty...
