Hi everyone, I’d love your advice on something. I’m considering buying the Toy Loulou bag and am trying to decide between purchasing it from a luxury reseller or directly from the boutique.

In my country, I’m wary of luxury resellers due to concerns about authenticity, as there are many high-quality fakes circulating. Buying from the boutique would guarantee authenticity and come with the complete experience, including the original paper bag, box, and receipt. Plus, having the boutique receipt might make it easier to resell in the future.

The price difference is $323.

What do you think? Is it worth paying the extra amount for the added security and benefits of buying directly from the boutique? Thanks for your thoughts!
I would pay extra to get it directly from the boutique. The savings isn't great enough for the amount of worry it would cause.

I completely agree with all the previous posters. While $323 is not a small amount of money, the peace of mind you’ll have from purchasing directly from the boutique is worth the retail price.
 
Hi guys, I really want a bright red bag for the holiday seasons, I only own YSL bags (envelope, toy Lou Lou and small Lou Lou) I don’t know why I just love YSL so much ahywayyyyy I saw a toy Lou Lou in red on a girl on YouTube but can’t find it anywhere online. Did they stop selling it in red???

Yes I don't think they make a bright red loulou anymore. I was looking for one too. Not sure what your budget is, but if you like the toy / mini size, LV has the mini capucine in a nice bright red. I found the mini too small for me personally, small is a good size but feels too much in a red color.

It’s seems YSL barely makes any colors these days. It’s turned me off from them. I barely go in the store or check the website anymore because it’s so devoid of color. I actually just recently got a red YSL medium Envelope bag on Fashionphile.
 
I love the design of Loulou bag. My husband got me a small loulou and ever since then I’m struggling with the quality of this bag!
for the third time, I ended up driving two hours to the boutique and got one- but when I came home I noticed these flaws.. is this normal on all the loulou bags out there ? Or is it an obvious defect ?
First is the inconsistent stitching on the face, and the next thing is the cracks on both side of the bag where the D rings attach.

usually the flaws on loulou are dents in the leather. I haven't seen these types of bad stitching and cracks on the leather. I would not be happy with that quality.

Thank you ! I wasn't happy either so I went to the boutique to exchange the next day. The bag I exchanged has the card of 2024! All the rest of the bags I went thru were all made in 2022, the old stocks.

wow I cant believe they had those old stock bags and handn't sent them to outlet or department stores to off load. im glad you got it resolved. its a lot of money to spend on bad quality.

Thank you ! Yes Neiman Marcus had 2022 stocks and even the YSL boutique.. not sure if that’s just normal but wasn't happy at all. Now I might as well just go to the outlets because .. what’s the difference of going the boutique if I’m going to get the old stocks in full price anyway ? 😖
