Default Violet Chain Strap Rive Gauche?

I had never seen this before I stumbled upon it. Has anyone else seen or heard about this?

somehow I feel like it wouldn't be very comfortable to actually use the chain strap. the rive gauche fits a lot so when it's full, it's heavy, so I feel like the chain would dig into your body if you wore it messenger style despite the little suede part on the strap.

I was googling some time ago; I found it, saved it, and went on looking. I forgot where I found it!

Has anyone seen any more of that other purple fringed suede Rive Gauche that was in the May issue of Vogue? I wasn't all that fond of it at first, but it has really grown on me!! I would assume since both RGs are purple suede and that purple was one of the Spring line's key colours, that this chain strap one is from Spring.

i remember seeing that bag on ysl.com...
i thought it was a smaller size rive gauche, kinda like the mini downtown...
i can't be sure though...

i agree with mundo on the chain...if it is a full size bag, it will probably hurt once you fill it with stuff...
