It was so difficult to get pictures of the interior for you. See here for a stock photo. There is only one interior zipper. I was disappointed that there wasn’t a separate slot for a cell phone. That was the only downside I could find.

DIMENSIONS:

12″ wide x 8″ tall x 5″ deep (measurements differ from each site, these are my own measurements)
Strap drop = 4″”

Shoulder strap drop = 14″ at shortest hole, 15″ middle hole, 16″ last hole

Many of you have asked how I feel about the size.  I think the size is perfect for petites (as a reference, I am 5′ tall). I’m a bit shocked that it’s considered a “mini” because it’s quite a large handbag for me.

FEATURES:
– two way top zip closure with additional magnetic top tab closure with “Y” hardware 
– sheepskin pebbled leather (super soft)
– 5 metal feet
– tonal topstitching
– structured body (doesn’t lose it’s shape)
– color is called Dragee
– Made in Italy
WHAT IT COMES WITH:
– double layered YSL dust bag (inner is white, outer is black with logo)
– extra square of leather
-tags/booklet
WAYS TO WEAR IT:

You can also choose to wear it as a crossbody but I thought it looked a bit strange given it’s size.  I absolutely love this purse and am so glad I decided to pull the trigger when I did. The color is called “Dragee” which is a gorgeous shade of blush pink.  I am concerned about it getting dirty given the light color but I am extremely careful with my purses so hopefully this won’t be a problem.  I always make sure to store it in it’s proper dust bag after each use.  I hope you found this review helpful.  I bought this online at Nordstrom awhile ago but now I see that it’s sold out:( There’s other colors  but the only one I could find available online right now is black.  I would try to online chat to first to find out if they are planning on getting more inventory or ask your local store to do a search.

  1. It’s a nice looking handbag. It has mega style even as a “mini” handbag. Its construction and design look stylish.

    While the post is about the handbag, your looks are beautiful, as always. The sleeveless dress is very nice, and I like the color and shape of these pink salt-colored pumps. Great charm and allure shown by you, Annie.

  3. You know I adore that bag! Y is so pretty! ^.^

    You look adorable here. The dress really compliments the blush tones very well and the dress looks good both with and without the belt.

  5. I really want this bag, it was recently sold out on the YSL EU site, and now I can't find it anywhere. Do you have any idea where I can find this bag now?

    • I would try calling directly to the some YSL stores and see if they have any in stock. Otherwise Nordstrom’s would be the next best option. They are sold out online but sometimes their stock in-store is different. I hope you find it:)

  10. I just couldn’t depart your web site prior to suggesting that I
    really enjoyed the standard info a person provide for your guests?
    Is going to be back often to inspect new posts

  11. Hey just wanted to give you a quick heads up.
    The text in your content seem to be running
    off the screen in Internet explorer. I’m not sure if this is a format issue or something to do with web
    browser compatibility but I figured I’d post to let you know.
    The layout look great though! Hope you get the issue resolved soon. Cheers

  12. Woah! I’m really enjoying the template/theme of
    this website. It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s
    very difficult to get that “perfect balance” between usability and visual appearance.
    I must say you have done a superb job with this. Additionally, the blog
    loads very fast for me on Firefox. Superb Blog!

  13. Spot on with this write-up, I honestly feel this amazing site needs a lot
    more attention. I’ll probably be back again to read more, thanks for the information!

  14. Hello are using WordPress for your site platform? I’m new to the blog world but I’m
    trying to get started and create my own. Do you need any html coding expertise to make
    your own blog? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
