I would be really nervous with light suede as well. I have red suede shoes, and it’s really hard to get any dirt or spots out. In my experience classic/soft leathers (not patent) are so much easier to fix when they get color transfer.

if your already concerned about it, don't do it. If your the type of person who wouldn't worry and wouldn't be bothered than go ahead. if you plan to wear crossbody I think its going to show wear and black color transfer easily. I would also be worried about dirty showing. Just the random accidental uncontrollable grime of life could get it at any moment LOL, a random child touches it at a restaurant, someone bumps you in the market with their wet produce...ugghh no.
Haha these are the exact kinds of scenario I fear and know I can't avoid. I returned a cinnamon suede College bag for this reason (so sad because I loved it so!!)
Hi all! Another loulou question- how similar is the loulou small (regular, not puffer) to the Chanel 19 in your opinion? I saw one in black with GHW and it looked so similar to my Chanel 19 (small, black) that I couldn’t get it out of my head that I would be repeating if I got that bag. Now I really want the loulou small in black w black HW but didn’t want too much overlap with the Chanel 19 so instead I got the Kate medium in black with black HW from Bloomingdales, waiting on it to come and wondering if I made a mistake??? Bloomingdales also doesn’t have the loulou small in black on black so that helped to make my decision (need to use gift cards!). Thoughts?
Thanks everyone. I’ve been wanting a Lou Lou for years but aside from the Lou Lou puffer small in dark beige with gold HW I haven’t found one that looks good on me and that I need for some reason. The dark colors are elegant but redundant in my collection, the small ones ones in any color look silly on me , but the medium Lou Lou looks too big and heavy! This one, while small is such a lovely color I thought I’d give it a go but the light suede is a non starter. The search continues !
Actually I wanted to present my very first YSL bag here, but Farfetch delivered me the wrong bag 
. So much for my first experience with a YSL bag. I ordered the Small LouLou in Dark Beige - and this is what I got:
This is the Blanc Vintage color. The bag is beautiful, but I just cannot wear a white bag. Way too delicate for me.
I am really annoyed that this happened and I already returned the bag today. At least Farfetch was very helpful with the return.
Now I am rethinking everything and my next plan is to visit the YSL boutique in the city and check out all their bags before buying

Does anyone know if the toy loulou will comfortably fit a s21 ultra phone?
Bag dimensions are
Toy LouLou 7.8 X 5.5 X 2.9 INCHES and my phone is phone (6.5 x 2.98 x 0.35 in)
So technically it should fit but I did a search on the forum and people with a Galaxy 10 Note (which is smaller than me) said their phones did not fit....
Also, do the new ones have an adjustable strap or not? I read that the new ones no longer have an adjustable strap but this one on the YSL site says it has an adjustable strap... https://www.ysl.com/en-us/loulou/loulou-toy-bag-in-matelasse--y--leather-678401DV7071229.html

I've got a S20 FE and it just about fits if that's any help?
Sorry I can’t. I don’t even like suede but the color and hardware combo has me drooling.
Is it normal to have some impressions on the loulou leather? Mine is brand new but i notice some Impressions and Im not sure if they are really ‘dents’ or just the nature of the leather and the puff.
I am attaching some pics. TIA!
Just dont want to drive all the way for nothing.

It's not natural but not uncommon. Yours looked the chain was left on top of it on one side. My first LouLou had some dents or wrinkles that I didn't notice in the store. I ended up driving a long way to exchange. LOL the CA said that this was a common thing. She was right. The other bags looked worse. Mind you none of them looked bad but mine still looked better. So in the end I kept the bag.
Only you know what you're willing to live with. Good luck!
