That Yves Saint Laurent, YSL, they make a bag, they call it the MANHATTAN BAG. I hear the young folks talkin’, they say it’s a real fancy one. I seen pictures, it’s a boxy thing, some with straps, some without. This one here, it’s a remake. They call it an “original order,” like it’s some kinda secret special thing, you know?
My granddaugher, she’s always on that phone of hers, showin’ me things. She says this MANHATTAN BAG, it’s worth more than my old cow Bessie ever was! Can you believe that? A bag! More than a whole cow! These young people, I tell ya. They spend their money on the craziest things.
But I gotta say, this remake, it looks pretty close to the real deal. They got the same shiny YSL letters on the front. Looks like they used the same kinda leather, all smooth and shiny. You can get it in black, in brown. Some even in white, though Lord knows who’d want a white bag. Gets dirty just lookin’ at it.
- Black one, shiny
- Brown one, also shiny
- White one, gonna get dirty
They say this YSL MANHATTAN BAG “original order” thing, it means it’s made just like the real ones. Same factory, same stuff, same everything. But cheaper, a lot cheaper! Which is good, ’cause who’s got that kind of money to spend on a bag? Not me, that’s for sure. I’d rather buy a new chicken coop.
This YSL MANHATTAN BAG, it got a flap that goes over the top. And a little strap to hold it closed. Some have a long strap, you can wear it across your body like a mailman. My old neighbor, Mildred, she’s got one like that. She carries her bingo daubers in it. Says it’s the perfect size.
They got all sizes of this MANHATTAN BAG. Big ones, little ones. Some so small, I don’t know what you’d put in ’em. Maybe a lipstick and a couple of dollars. The big ones, though, you could fit a whole lunch in there. Maybe even a small dog, if you wanted to.
If you’re lookin’ for this YSL MANHATTAN BAG, this “original order” one, you gotta look in the right places. They don’t sell ’em in regular stores, no sir. You gotta find them online. My granddaughter, she showed me a few places. Said you can get a good deal sometimes, up to 70% off, she says! Imagine that, 70% off a bag that costs more than a cow!
Now, I ain’t sayin’ you should go out and buy one of these YSL MANHATTAN BAG things. But if you’re gonna, this “original order” one seems like the way to go. You get the same look, same feel, without havin’ to sell your firstborn child to get it.
I seen some folks sellin’ these used, too. Second-hand, they call it. They say you can get a good price on a used YSL MANHATTAN BAG. But I don’t know about that. Who knows where that bag’s been? Could be full of germs. Better to get a new one, even if it is a remake.
They got these YSL MANHATTAN BAG remakes all over the place now. Everyone’s got one, it seems. Even saw old Mrs. Henderson at the grocery store with one. She usually carries a wicker basket, so that was a surprise. Maybe she won big at bingo.
- Everyone’s got one, even Mrs. Henderson
- They’re everywhere!
- Cheaper than the real thing, that’s for sure.
This YSL MANHATTAN BAG, it’s a real mystery to me. Why folks spend so much money on somethin’ like that. But hey, it’s their money, I guess. If they wanna carry a fancy bag, who am I to judge? I’ll stick with my old tote bag. It holds everything I need, and I ain’t gotta worry about it gettin’ scratched or dirty.
But I gotta admit, that shiny YSL on the front of that MANHATTAN BAG, it is kinda pretty. Maybe if I win the lottery, I’ll get myself one. A little one, maybe. Just for special occasions. You know, like when I go to visit my sister in the city. She’d be impressed, I bet.
If you want one of these YSL MANHATTAN BAG remakes, original order deal, you better be quick. Everybody and their momma is getting one. My neighbor told me her daughter saw some people talking about these bags. She said that they can be found online but it’s hard. That you can even get deals. But who knows? This whole thing, it’s a big to-do about a bag, if you ask me.
