Okay, so I’ve been obsessed with the YSL College bag for like, forever. It’s just so classy and goes with everything, you know? But, the price tag? Ouch. My bank account was definitely not ready for that kind of commitment. So, I thought, why not try to find a really good dupe?
I started my deep dive on the internet, looking at tons of pictures of the real deal and comparing them to the ones that claimed to be dupes. I had to watch out for some key details. I read somewhere online that the real YSL College bag is more square-shaped, so I was focusing on that right away. Then, I spent hours scrolling through different websites, checking out reviews, and basically just trying to soak up as much information as I could.
Then I stumbled upon this one dupe, and it looked pretty darn good. But you can never be too sure, right? So, I made the purchase.
When it finally arrived, I was so excited! I ripped open the package and there it was. First look it was pretty good! I laid it out and started doing a thorough inspection. I checked out the shape, yep, pretty square. Good start.
- The Shape: I compared it with the photos I saved of the real YSL bag, it was pretty square, just like the real one.
- The Label: There were some numbers on the label inside, just like what other people said about the real deal. I found “MADE IN ITALY” stamped inside. Underneath, there were numbers that might be the style number and art number. It was just like those online guides mentioned!
It was kind of a gamble, but honestly, I’m pretty happy with how it turned out! I get to rock that YSL College bag look without, you know, going completely broke. It is a win-win in my book!
