Missed the picture. Are they different colors? I ended up keeping the one with the thinner straps because it was slightly more symmetrical. And the stamp was also a little bolder. I have seen bags where the measurements are significantly different, like one where the depth was 1/2 inch off. I'm glad I was able to compare on that one because the mistake would not have been in my favor. But now you can relax and enjoy at least one of them!

Totally! It’s funny how much spec variation they have for the same bag. One bag is a burgundy with GHW and the other is black with SHW. I ended up going with the black and then got another beige small envelope bag. I figured those two will be most versatile for my closet.

Does anyone know what are the various types of croc embossed leather YSL offers? I'm thinking of getting a sunset and kate, and realise that the sunset croc is really shiny, while I've came across some croc Kate bags which leathers look a bit more matte. I personally prefer a more matte black, I want a croc-embossed sunset in black with gold hardware but not sure if the 'matte finish' even exists :sad:

I believe it's just shiny leather for the sunset - I searched far and wide for a matte croc embossed as well, but no luck. I was also a bit apprehensive initially but the croc pattern dulls down the shine and makes it more approachable so it's not so loud. I find that it comes across more shiny in photos than real life.

Hi all! Can anyone confirm where is the best place to get the medium Sunset in Smooth Leather from for an Australian? Hoping to get a good deal once I go to purchase the bag around end of April/early May.

It’s always best to get from the YSL stores or big department stores like David Jones. It is very rare that sunset bag goes on sale as it is their classic range and best seller. seasonal colours and prints go on sale sometimes. You can also try resellers or consignment stores but they might not come brand new or with all their accessories etc.

I'm so inlove with this bag. I think this bag really embodies me and my personality. I have the grained with silver hardware with leather strap from 2017 and now I want the black with black hardware.
