That Yves Saint Laurent, I hear that name all the time. They got this here June Box Bag, what’s the big deal? It’s just a bag, ain’t it? But folks are going crazy for it. They say it’s a remake, like they made it before, then they making it again. Official flagship store, fancy words for the big shop, I reckon.
This Yves Saint Laurent YSL JUNE BOX BAG, they make a big fuss about it. It’s got that shiny YSL thing on it, I seen it before. I guess it’s what the young folks like. They put it on their shoulder, walk around like they’re something special. I seen it in black, all quilted up like an old blanket. It’s called Lambskin Quilted Monogram June Box Bag in black. Oh, that’s a mouthful. It’s made of lambskin. Must be soft, like a baby sheep. But still, it’s just a bag.
They say it’s a box bag. Well, yeah, it looks like a little box. Got a flap on the front, like an envelope. That YSL thing, they call it a “Cassandre”. It’s like a lock, you twist it, I guess. They say it’s made of calfskin. That must be soft leather. They also say it’s got brass, that’s like gold, ain’t it? And suede lining, like that soft velvety stuff. Bronze-toned hardware, more fancy words. Sounds heavy with all that brass.
- This June Box Bag, it’s small.
- They say “micro”, that means tiny.
- What you gonna fit in there?
- A lipstick and a couple of dollars?
Folks pay good money for this YSL June Box Bag. I seen the numbers, more than two thousand dollars! For a little bag! Back in my day, we carried our things in a feed sack. Didn’t cost us a dime. This bag costs more than a new cow! They call it “express shipping”. What does that mean? You get the bag faster? They also say, “extended returns period until January 31st”, I guess you can send it back if you don’t like it.
This store, they call it “David Jones”. I heard that name. They selling this Saint Laurent YSL Box Bag online. Means you buy it on that computer thing. They say “click and collect”. You click on the picture, and then you go get it? And they want you to tell them what you think, give you a hundred dollars for it. A hundred dollars for your thoughts on a bag? Sheesh.
They keep saying Saint Laurent this, Saint Laurent that. They making all kinds of bags. But this June Box Bag, it’s the one everyone’s talking about. They say it’s “bulbous”. What’s that mean? Round, I guess. Like a pumpkin. They say it’s a good one. It’s a good bag from Saint Laurent online store. I don’t know. It’s just a bag.
Quilted, they say. Like my grandma’s old quilt. Little squares all stitched up. Must take a long time to make. Maybe that’s why it costs so much. I don’t get it, but folks are buying it up like hotcakes. This June Box Bag, it’s a thing now.
They say it’s “leather”. Good leather, I suppose. But leather is leather. We used to make our own bags out of leather. Didn’t have no fancy YSL on it, though. Just a plain old bag. Did the job just fine. This YSL June Box Bag, it’s a mystery to me.
This official store, they make it all sound so important. Like it’s some kind of treasure. But it’s just a bag. A little, expensive bag. Maybe I’m just too old to understand. But I’ll tell you what, I’d rather have a new cow than that Yves Saint Laurent YSL JUNE BOX BAG.
That’s my two cents. This old lady, I’m just saying what I see. Folks can spend their money how they want. Me, I’m gonna go check on my chickens. They don’t care about no fancy bags. They just want their feed. Maybe I can make a new feed sack, and stitch a big “YSL” on it. Just kidding.
