Glad you took the decision that works best for you. I would have returned it too. So you are doing three right thing.

I do think it’s quite rare to receive one in good condition like that, esp when purchasing online. That’s why I spent a little more to get one in person at the boutique bc I wanted to pick one out myself. Must be such a relief to have made a decision, congrats!
The Sense one is pretty good. Perfect decision. Enjoy your new beauty!
Are you in the US? I tried to order, but with the new additional credit card security that the EU now requires, it declined my card immediately without asking for any additional security measures. My order was then cancelled. I'm trying to decide whether to try again with a different card.
I had to go through 4 different cards, but I FINALLY got the order to go through this morning! I do appreciate the fraud protection, but please don't protect me from myself, LOL!
yep- works perfectly well. It feels dry and stiff at the beginning. But once it’s completely dry, the leather is as soft as before.Hi everyone! I’m looking for some advice. I just got a toy black puffer in ghw. I’m obsessed with the way the leather feels and the luxurious look of it.
However, I’m concerned that it might look too similar to my Small Lou Lou that’s also in black ghw. Should I be diversifying and looking into different colours and styles since I don’t own any other bags? I would consider getting the Lou mini camera bag if I were to return the puffer but I’m on the fence.
I’m new to building a collection and would really appreciate your thoughts and feedback!

Love them both! I also have a black small puffer and black medium Loulou both with silver hardware and don’t find two being much. I can wear on different occasions. Congrats on building your collection!
I love the small Loulou, but I agree, they're similar. Maybe go for a structured style, like the Sunset, Kate, or Cassandra?
I have the silver hardware small Loulou and the medium silver hardware small Loulou so I guess those two are more similar
I think they are different enough to own both! I really love the puffer and your toy one looks like it’s perfect. I have the black small puffer in ghw and black medium puffer in SHW and I love them both! If you want to change it up, I would say exchange the toy puffer for SHW bc I do think the SHW has a different vibe than the ghw. But if you really love the ghw, I would keep it. Both of these bags are classic and great foundation to a collection, and you can always get different styles and colors down the line.
I think they’re different enough to keep both, but I am biased towards the Puffers….just love them! If you don’t want 2 black bags maybe exchange for the beige or grey?
you mentioned “since I don’t own any other bags”…if these are your only YSL bags, I’d definitely get a different color option for one of them. The puffer is awesome…maybe get it in a lighter color!
Thanks @mariliz11! They are both such lovely bags. I'm happy to hear that you love both and wear them on different occasions. Do you find that the Lulu is easier to maintain as the puffer is lambskin?
Thanks @Antigone I love the design of the Sunset and Cassandra. The Loulou is such a great style - Did you get your small or medium Loulou first?
Appreciate your advice @Sassy! I agree, the shw does give it a different look. The shw looks edgier to me. How has the wear and tear been on your puffers so far? I've heard that the leather is more durable than it looks.
@Moxisox Beige is definitely on my watch list! Love how lightweight and soft the puffers they are.
Thanks @foxgal Great advice!
Thanks for everyone's advice and feedback. I decided to keep the puffer as I find it to be a great lightweight on-the-go bag for days I don't want to carry around too much. I do tend to wear darker colours so black is a safe colour for me!
