Saint Laurent YSL Niki Bag
- Thread starter Miss World
- Start date
Congrats! Gorgeous bag! This is also on my wishlist, either this one or the large size. maybe someday Enjoy!I can’t believe I started this thread.Finally joining the club with my new Medium Niki bag.
The Niki looks really cool with almost any outfit.
I wanted black tulip colour but impossible to find. The black is classic so can’t go wrong.
I ordered a bag from the website last week and received my new bag (medium LouLou in dark red) yesterday. I was supposed to receive the bag on Wednesday but I missed my delivery.
I bought the medium Niki in black last week and would love to get another color. I am gravitating toward dusty grey, but wonder if that color has a totally different vibe than the black (ie less edgy, more “mature”). Wondering if the freesia color that’s in my local store would be a better choice and almost as versatile. I wear a lot of black and grey so a pop of color could be good? Or am I just favoring that because it’s available locally?
Hi I also bought the black Niki recently and considering buying another one but also can’t decide on colour. I think the freesia pink will make the bag vibe more feminine and less edgy if that’s what you are going for?
Grey is ofcourse more versatile but if you want a pop of colour then freesia, dark legion red or even Eros red would be nice.
I personally don’t think the greys are mature, I’ve seem a couple of people wearing the grey and they were about 25-35 and looked very chic. I might get storm grey, Taupe or a red.

So many options!!! Keep us posted on what you decide. I’ll do the same. I love gray/taupe - I think I’m trying to talk myself into freesia because I can see it in person before buying. Also interested in branching out, though, and I’ve never had a bag in a color like freesia. Hmm...
Yes I like rouge legion because it adds a pop of colour but still quiet still a neutral enough to go with most outfits. It’s a great dark red shade.

Yes, it is the patent embossed croc. This is my first Saint Laurent bag. I think I have owned a bag from every fashion house except Saint Laurent. I recently read in the older threads that Saint Laurent has problems with chipping leather. Are there any known problems with this bag style and leather? This is the bag I bought and waiting to receive from Farfetch....any advice or issues I should be aware of?....TIA . Not sure if this is calf leather patent or a different leather.....Are you talking about the patent croc? With your style both the regular calf and patent would go really well. Patent is usually very durable and easy to maintain. Think about which one you are really attracted to and can see yourself wearing everyday with your wardrobe. If your style is simple the patent may give it a stylish boost.
Hi I believe this is Patent Lambskin. The patent makes it structured whilst the lambskin makes it relaxed and not too stiff looking.Yes, it is the patent embossed croc.

@highend A member on the purse forum has this exact bag. She might be able to give you a review. You can see pictures of her bag on page 27 of this thread.
