Yves Saint Laurent Uptown Small Bag

Megs · Jun 11th, 2007, 09:02 AM

A little structure never hurt. And a sleek defined structure is the bag of a woman who means business, who wants to be taken seriously, and who is not messing around with her fashion or closet. At this point in my life I am enjoying not needing to go to a typical business suit, 9-5 job, but I still envy those who wear a head to toe business suit from time to time. Refined and gorgeous, the Yves Saint Laurent Uptown Small Bag emulates sophistication with its navy patent leather and gold tone hardware. Not to be worn over the shoulder, the bag has a mere 4½" double hand drop. The refined flap with turnlock closure is the perfect outside finishing touch along with the satin lining on the inside with two pockets. I do not want to go back to work that bad, but this still would make the most stunning accessory for the women on a mission. Via Saks for $1895.

This is exactly what you said: elegant, sophisticated and beautiful. I love the leather and this color is gorgeous. This is a flawless bag.

It's beautiful, but it would drive me insane that I couldn't shoulder-carry it, personally.

wowza that's a beauty!

This is a pretty purse.

I agree on the need for a longer shoulder strap. I'd love to see a non-patent leather version!

GORGEOUS!
Love the patent!
Love the color!
Love the shape.
Handheld bags don't work well for me so wish it was more of a shoulder bag, but I think its beautiful.

I LOVE it. I'm more and more drawn towards structured bags, and this is a beauty.

Now that is a perfect bag!

Looks lovely, timeless bag. Cant wait to see it IRL and if it comes in any other colors or leather

ValleyO · Jun 11th, 2007, 06:55 PM

It's absolutely gorgeous- I especially love the red patent version!
