Ohhhhhh, your bag is absolutely stunning. I'm def leaning towards this one over the supple for the same reasons you mentioned. Over time, I'm afraid even in the baby size that it could become too soft. Do you use yours cross body or on the shoulder. Does the bag twist or turn when using it that way due to how the straps are not attached across from each other. I really really appreciate your sharing your info with me. I love handbags but unfortunately do not own very many. I'm looking to use this as an everyday bag. Thank you so much!!!!!! Love, love,love yours! Congrats and enjoy it!

Thanks, I'm really happy with this bag! What's funny is that I usually prefer a pop of color with my every day bag, but for some reason I kept gravitating towards black for this style. The heart wants what it wants, I guess :lol:.
I usually wear it crossbody. I wore it once on the shoulder, but I should have shortened the strap more. I was too lazy and just wore the strap on its regular crossbody length, but then I felt that the bag was too low and even kind of gaped open. That doesn't happen when I wear it crossbody, though, and it doesn't twist either when I wear it crossbody.

I think you'd be very happy with this style as an every day bag. I feel like the baby is the perfect size, too. It fits a lot of stuff, and it looks elegant and refined. Good luck with your purchase in Paris!
 
Anyone own this or have seen this patched sac de jour tote? I put a link for the picture i find online below.
My sales is holding one for me, I think it looks cute but still hesitate whether worth buy or not for this style, please let me know your opinion or suggestion for this. Thank you.

I saw the patched one with the rainbow and diamond in the boutique...it was cute but I preferred the solid or croc-embossed ones. I felt like the patched one is more "fun" or funky, meaning not for every day use (at least for me!).

Thanks again for your opinions. Really appreciate it. I will wear it crossbody most days or just handheld, but when wearing just tee shirts, not sure I like crossbody on me then. Accentuates my chest. I'm thin and petite, but on the older side, so want to keep it looking classy. Again, thanks so much. Your thoughts are appreciated. I'll let you know what I end up with. Enjoy yours. It's a beauty.

Does anyone here own the nano SDJ in black grained with the dark silver/gunmetal hardware? I'm considering buying it online, but haven't seen any pictures of it "in real life". I actually prefer the normal silver hardware, but its impossible to find the classic SDJ in nano with that hardware..
 
I would love to have the sac de jour bag in grey (fog or anthracite) color, grain leather in medium or large size. Is there a such a bag? I can only find grain leather in small size. All the bigger sizes come with smooth leather.

Do should I stick with the safe black? Hard decisions, haha :smile:
which town are you in? a shop close to me has the larger bigger size brand new with the grained leather
 
I feel like I'm getting closer to what I want. Definitely love the SDJ souple leather in baby size. Checked out the YSL boutique and saw the black, gray, and tan colors in souple leather. I always wear black pants or jeans and a pop of color on my tops. I obviously like neutral. I was first drawn to the tan as I'm looking to use this as an everyday bag but, I do not own a really nice black leather bag and I'm afraid of color transfer on the tan, as I plan to wear this crossbody most of the time. (Has anyone experienced this?) Soooo, now I'm leaning towards the black. Just looking for confirmation that I'm making the right decision here. It's an expensive purchase for me! Thanks so much!

I would go for black, the leather on the souple is very durable. I've been using it for work most days for the past month without paying much attention to it and there is not a single mark on the leather.

Lighter colour are definitely prone to colour transfer.

It sounds to me that you would get the most use and enjoyment out of the black one. It's not a formal dressy bag in the sense that it will be equally fabulous day or night!

Thanks so much! I'm leaving in 3 weeks for Paris and Florence and hoping to find the bag while there. I'll be in Paris first. If for some reason I don't find it there, I'll check Florence. I'm excited about the trip and the bag too. Haha. I'll also be in Venice. Can't wait. I'll show pics of what I get upon my return. I appreciate your input!

I'm glad you've been enjoying your bag.

Tax return I believe is SLIGHTLY better in Italy, in case that matters at all!
 
I did hear that. What are the chances of finding it in Florence? Not sure the gamble is worth it unless there are lots places there that might have it. They should, but when you want it you want it. I'd hate to come home empty handed. THX
I'm no expert in SL Italy, sorry!! Maybe someone else on TPF can share what they've seen in terms of stock? I'm not sure either what the difference is, but it might be worth the piece of mind just to buy it as soon as you see it!
 
Hey guys, I'm new to the TPF and the designer handbag world in general. I just recently placed a pre-order on Saks for the black nano SDJ in grained leather with silver hardware. I pre-ordered it on the Canadian website and it only came to $1600 CAD. I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with pre-orders on Saks - have they ever increased the price after? I just had to get the bag since it seemed like such a steal I hope they don't cancel or increase the price on my order!

I checked their website this morning hoping I could get a steal and saw that the red is on sale for $1040 CAD but is out of stock. The black is now back to the original price of $2770. Wow I hope you get it at $1600. That is such a good deal. I wished I have seen your post earlier, I could have pre-order one for myself as well. Goodluck!
