YSL ladies, is the red downtown a keeper?

beljwl · May 20th, 2008, 11:13 PM

I recently got a new red patent medium downtown through another TPFer. I really like the bag but the style is a little different for me (I'm more the LV/Chanel type) and I'm not sure if I should keep it. Those of you who have this bag, what do you think?

alouette · May 20th, 2008, 11:56 PM

Do you have any modeling pics by chance?

Chaan85 · May 21st, 2008, 01:18 AM

yes yes... we'd like to see some modeling pics!

OMG, Congrats!

I

the red patent downtown! I was close to purchasing one a few months ago, but I shy away from bright colors

. I regret not buying it now. Please show us some pics!

Congrats and def keep it!!!!!!!!! It's a very sought-after and hard-to-find color, and the bag is just so functional and wearable. It'll become your go-to tote right away!

I say its a keeper too! I adore my Downtown since I purchased it last summer. Use it all the time!

Definitely keep it, the red Downtown is HOT! You may be LV/Chanel, but I see some black Multicolore in your pics so you're not afraid of color and a true red like the patent Downtown is such a classic pop of color. It's a really functional bag, too, you'll find yourself reaching for the Downtown every time you need a tote!

Congrats on it, I'd love to see some pics!

It looks GREAT on you! I recently bought a black downtown and wasn't entirely sure that I loved it, but seeing you model your red bag makes me feel a bit better about my black one. I hope you enjoy using it!
