Just order the medium one in beigeBag twinsI bought the black puffer shw in July and a month later bought the beige small ghw. Sooo if you did that, you would not be alone. I LOVE these bags so much! No regrets, as I have used both bags frequently in the last few months. So easy to pair with even casual outfits.
Hi all. I'm thinking of buying the small loulou puffer in the all black hardware. But I'm concerned about the hardware chipping. Some people in the other threads mentioned chipping but on YT/other threads wear & tear is minimal. Is all black hardware chipping a common issue? Thanks!
I wouldn’t necessarily say it’s super common, but it definitely happens with black hardware regardless of the brand. I haven’t seen a lot of major chipping issues with YSL (like chipping turning into peeling), but some have little chips here and there. You can use black metal paint to help disguise it too if needed.
I just ordered a small black puffer with silver hardware after eyeing it for a while, very excited to receive it!! My husband and I are terrible at gift giving and always spoil the surprise for each other so this is my Christmas present 
Tadaaa! Oh wow, how I love this bag! I tried it on in stores a few months ago while on vacation and wasn't impressed but decided to give it a go and ordered from the webstore and am so glad I did! This is exactly what I was hoping for, lush and very plushy 
The floor model I tried on had deflated lil puffs so I'm glad to see that was a one-off. Interesting to see SL isn't shipping out boxes anymore, all my prior orders came with the box but instead got this little shopper bag.
Here are some mod shots, this is the small black with shw and I am about 5'4. Ignore my house hang outfit and messy hair haha

Twins!!! This bag is the queen of my collection. SL recently sent me a bag in a bag too. I ended up returning that one and ordered something else. It came in a box. I’m not sure why they’re sometimes shipping in bags.Tadaaa! Oh wow, how I love this bag!

is your bag the small? if so, we are bag twins! i do not know why i didn't get it earlier either. it is so soft and light!I’m in the clubNot sure why I waited so long for this bag, but better late than never LOL
i posted this info in the deals thread but thought i would share it here too. i was able to get my bag from fwrd.com for around $1980, that's including taxes.
fwrd.com has a 15% off coupon code (SISTERSISTER15) and 5% cashback through shopstyle.
forward also has a 10% off code (FWRD10) if you have already used the 15% off code.
the small loulou puffers are at the old prices. it is $2150 instead of $2490 for beige, black w/ silver hardware, and black w/ gold hardware, and $2250 instead of $2590 for black w/ black hardware. i bought the black on black for $1912.50 + tax with the 15% off coupon. then i got $95 cashback with shopstyle. with the bag currently selling for $2590 at most stores, i am happy to have gotten it for under $2000 with taxes.

thank you so much for posting this deal! I was able to get the same bag as you, the black on black puffer
however, I noticed that when I received the item, the ysl tag was cut off the bag and then taped onto the outside of the shipping box. I found that to be a bit strange. Also, though the bag was overall in good condition, I noticed a few small, faint scratches. Perhaps it’s the nature of the lambskin? There’s also some debris in the bag and the inner zipper pocket. I’m hesitant to return it though bc I’ve been through a lot to get this bag (bought it 3x from saks, farfetch, and neimans; returned all 3 bc they were clearly used bags or displays. One of them had bad scratches all over and even had someone’s Starbucks receipt crumpled up in it. Smh. The box it shipped in had a giant gaping hole on it, so the dust bag was dirty! Anyway, I was wondering if your puffer had the tags ripped off and taped onto outside of the box as well? I’ve never experienced this with fwrd. I had given up on the bag, though I love it, the shopping experience was just so dismal, so I chalked it up to not being meant to be, and gave up on it until you posted about this fantastic deal so thank you again!

I've purchased the so black puffer twice now, once from Neiman Marcus which had a lot of damage and came horribly packaged, and now directly from YSL. Received the YSL package today, and it has very obvious scuffing right on the front, with some more spots on other parts of the bag that are not in the picture. Unfortunately I'm going to give up on owning the puffer, the quality control seems to be poor, as I spotted these big scuffs within seconds of opening the box and I don't want to waste more time ordering if they don't care about sending damaged/returned items. Disappointed because it's a beautiful bag.
