it bag: Must have shoulder bag-YSL Besace Flap Bag

Yves Saint Laurent Besace Flap Bag,Now they seem to be popping up everywhere. One of my favorite designer labels, YSL, has re-interpreted this relaxed style and transformed it into a true luxury item. From bronzed to croc-embossed leather, the YSL Besace Flap Messenger is nothing short of spectacular. The adjustable shoulder strap gives it versatility and its' 11.5 x 9 x 4 size makes it quite roomy for this sort of style. It's not a flat messenger (my favorite type), but the extra space will appeal to a larger group of women who might have otherwise dismissed the messenger style altogether. If you don't have one yet, ladies, you should and who better than YSL to be your "first";-)

We’ve seen many celebs and people on the streets rockin’the YSL Muse, Uptown and Downtown bags, this year the Besace bag is brought back from the 1969s. The textured leather shoulder bag has brass hardware, inside zip and cellphone pocket for convenience, you know how it gets when you have a big bag. Jessica Alba, Sarah Jessica Parker and many other celebs have already been seen toting around the Besace bag, I think its a classic - I love simple timeless bags. I’m tempted! Do you like it?

When I first saw this YSL Besace Flap Bag, the size and shape appealed to me. The design was in a messenger bag style, and the size was perfect in a 'postman bag' proportion. Great for guys! However, when I saw the strap..I became doubtful. Doubtful that it will work for a guy as it is really short. Apparently, I was wrong! I came across this pic of a real guy on the street using this bag in croc embossed leather and it immediately screams to me as CHIC!

Messenger bags are typically reserved for anti-back pack college students, biker couriers and first year teachers. Yves Saint Laurent believes they can change that. This near $2000 Besace Flap Messenger Bag looks very much like a basic messenger bag but with somewhat fancier, high-end hardware. Perhaps YSL got bored with making terribly chic shoulder bags. Perhaps the company responsible for le smoking and the YSL Muse Bag wanted to corner the market on college students who lug around books. Either way, the color and hardware are great, but Yves Saint Laurent might have been more innovative with shape and function.

Sienna Miller Takes Her Yves Saint Laurent Besace Purse

Love her or hate her, you can’t deny that Sienna Miller always makes interesting fashion choices. Here the starlet is hitting Australia’s Bondi Beach with a pal, wearing white jazz shoes (hmmm), dark-rinse acid-y jeans (hmmm), and a gray Yves Saint Laurent Besace Messenger (okay, I love it). The handbag’s stripey croc pattern is eye-catching, and I love its casual slouchiness tempered with a luxury quality.

Gisele Bundchen & her YSL Besace Purse
Here is one celebrity anyone would be hard pressed to say something negative about. Gisele Bundchen and her mile-long limbs took to the windy streets of New York City, YSL Besace in tow. Gisele is seen here hailing a cab across from the restaurant, Caliente. It’s a wonder Ms. Bundchen, famous as she is, hasn’t been struck by some vicious press, considering she’s been in the public eye since her 1996 debut (Fashion Week, no less!) onto the modeling scene. But with the ability to make everything look effortless chic, I hope Gisele stays the press sweetheart for a long time.

Sarah Jessica Parker is carrying an YSL Besace Flap Bag which is based on an old YSL design from the 60’s. There are two versions to this bag which comes in a messenger flap and a shoulder version.
