Default what do u think about YSL Besace bag???
I'm on a waitinglist of Besace bag...and the price is a bit over my budget for a YSL bag... its hkd 15950 (usd=2045)...YSL experts...what do u think about this bag??? does it worth its price???

i like YSL bags...i've got a muse and a large tribute...and the prices for them are each about 2/3 of Besace bag...

I did not think much about it until you asked!

It is starting to grow on me and I think it looks gorgeous on a person because the pics by itself do not really grab my attention. The black ($1895) or sky anthracite ($1995) are very tempting!

Which color will you get?

I'm not sure how to copy couturequeen's post that show pics of Jessica Alba and Sara Jessica Parker with their bags. It is posted in the 'Celebs and YSL bags' thread, post #679.

I love that one. It is the one I am hoping to get. I just have to wait a for next months billing cycle to start so not all my purchases end up on one bill.

I happen to like it enough to recommend it to my niece and a young friend of mine. It's a youthful, smart looking bag! I think you can do much better price wise. Check out overstock.com or BlueFly.com.

I like the details on the Besace bag and it looks great with jeans or even dresses.
