Camilliepoo-

I'll be anxious to see what you end up doing! I am holding off on a final decision between the black and one of the patents until I can see them in person next week. I really don't mind the canvas lining in this bag as it is more casual and seems appropriate. May not love it in the patent...

Good luck!

Hey camilliepoo, I don't have the Easy, it's not really my style. I love the leather on the Easy but I don't really care much for the shape - especially the small one. The Chloe Paraty, however, I LOVE, I have been using it almost everyday now! The size is perfect, it fits enough without being toooo bulky or heavy! Very convenient because of the added shoulder strap. It is just a great bag overall. If anything, for someone with a busy lifestyle like mine, an outer pocket of some sort would be nice, however, the newer Paraty's do have that, and for some reason, I don't like the way the pocket looks on the bag! lol

Hi camiliepoo, I haven't seen this bag in real but I do admire this bag to bits. Your small pebbled easy bag is just the right size I am considering if I were to buy the easy bag. I like pebbled leather more than smooth leather reason being smooth leather required more care and needed to be handle with extra diligent. To me, this color is gorgeous. I like your bag. May I know the code and the price of this bag please.

thanks

Thanks for all your comments!! Unfortunately I am still undecided about what to do :( Haha I'm so indecisive but I'll let you know what I decide in the end but it may not be for a few weeks since things have been crazy busy at work.

windy55 -- I haven't yet seen the patent ones IRL either. When you see it, let us know whether you like the pebbled or patent better and what color! :)

afterimage -- thanks so much for all the info on the chloe paraty!! you have me convinced that this is the next bag I must have lol. I noticed that your owns & loves and wishlist line up very much with my taste in bags :) you have great style obviously!

hooooiling -- i like the smaller size of the easy bag too ... i like a little slouch but not too much (larger seems to slouch more). and the pebbled/textured/bubbly leather does look very nice hehe...ahh i keep going back and forth! but yes this bag does seem very low maintenance if i were to keep it. I am still relatively new to YSL so I'm not sure exactly what code you are looking for but the first set of numbers on the inside leather tag (under the inside pocket) is 208315 and I paid $599

^^If you still don't love it after a few weeks, let it go and maybe get something else that you

? It's beautiful though.

I decided to keep it!!! I feel so silly for not figuring this out earlier, but the reason I didn't like it as much when i tried it on was because I had the stuffing still in it. With the stuffing, its shape was very round -- more like that of a log. I may have tried it on w/o the stuffing as well but I can't remember. But then! The other night, I tried it on with my wallet, keys, cell phone inside and it sagged just the perfect amount!! So... I'm leaning very much towards keeping it now :) Thanks everyone for convincing me to keep giving it a chance!!!

I have one and love it. I does sag nice with things in it. Also you can dress it up or down.

CMM · Apr 3rd, 2009, 01:16 PM

So glad you are going to keep it! The color is TDF!

I'm so glad that you're keeping it! I think its a beautiful bag! Lucky you to score a deal from the outlet. Did they have other Easy bags, perhaps in the larger sizes? I've been drooling over it for a while, and recently saw the patent leather one over at Neiman's in Tyson's. I'm trying to be good until I go to Paris in a few weeks, but my willpower is waning...
