You know, I heard some folks talking ’bout this fancy bag, the Yves Saint Laurent YSL JUNE BOX BAG. What a mouthful, huh? They say it’s all the rage in them fancy stores. I tell ya, these young’uns and their expensive tastes. Back in my day, we were happy with a good, strong sack for our things. But, these specialty stores, they got all sorts of things you never even knew you needed.
This June bag, I seen a picture, it’s all shiny and black, like a crow’s wing. They call it “quilted lambskin”. Sounds soft, I reckon, like a baby lamb. But who puts a lamb on a bag? Seems a waste to me. And this YSL thing, they say it’s a fancy name, some French fella. Reminds me of old man Yves down the road, always wearin’ them fancy hats. Probably cost a fortune, all this YSL June Box Bag stuff.
I hear them sayin’ you can get it online. What’s online? Sounds like somethin’ fishy to me. Back in my day, you went to the store, you saw what you wanted, you paid your money, and you went home. Simple as that. Now they got this “click and collect” thing. Click what? Collect where? Makes no sense. Just go to the dang specialty stores!
- This bag, it’s got a flap, they say.
- And a shiny YSL thing on it, like a buckle.
- They say it’s “structured”.
- Means it holds its shape, I guess.
- Not like my old potato sack.
They changed the name, too, I hear. Used to be Yves Saint Laurent, now it’s just Saint Laurent. Like they’re too good for the Yves part now. Fancy folks, I tell ya. This fella Hedi Slimane, he’s the one who did it. I don’t know this Hedi, but it sounds like he has a fancy name, too. All these names make my head spin. Yves Saint Laurent June Box Bag, just too much!
I seen a list of other bags they got. Loulou, Le 5, Icare… sounds like a bunch of gibberish to me. And Niki, Jamie… like they’re namin’ them after people. Maybe they are. Who knows what goes on in them specialty stores. It’s a whole different world, I tell ya. This YSL June Box Bag is probably in one of those stores, I guess.
My granddaughter, she’s always on her phone, lookin’ at these things. She says they’re “must-haves”. Must have what? A hole in your pocket, more likely. All this money for a bag. When I was her age, we were savin’ up for important things, like a good pair of shoes or a new cow. Not some fancy Yves Saint Laurent June Box Bag.
But you know, people like what they like. I guess if a pretty bag makes you happy, who am I to say it’s wrong. It just seems like these specialty stores are full of things that cost too much, and people buy them just because they got a fancy name on them. This June Box Bag. Probably costs more than my whole house, I bet. It’s crazy. They even said it is a charm now. I don’t know what that means, just a small bag, I guess.
They got some other place called Lykos. Sounds like a disease, don’t it? But they sell all sorts of beauty stuff. Hair and skin stuff. I reckon that’s where the young’uns go to get all dolled up to carry their fancy bags, like this Yves Saint Laurent June Box Bag. Makes sense, I suppose. If you’re gonna spend all that money on a bag, you gotta look good carryin’ it.
This world is getting too complicated. All these names, these online things, these fancy specialty stores. It’s just too much for an old gal like me. I’ll stick to my old ways. But if you got the money, and you want a fancy bag, I guess this YSL June Box Bag is the thing to get. It’s the “in” thing, they say. Just don’t ask me to understand it, alright?
I still think you can find what you want in them specialty stores. It’s your choice, get the bag or not. Just remember old man Yves. This YSL June Box Bag is just a bag. Don’t let it make you crazy. And that Hedi Slimane, maybe he’s a good guy. Who knows, right? And that “Noir” thing, that’s just black in French. Black like my old cat, Midnight. He never needed a fancy bag.
