YSL Y-Mail Compact Lets Luxury Handbag Owners Downsize
Jenna Wootton — March 20, 2010 — Fashion
Can't afford to buy designer handbags? Just downsize. Literally. Yves Saint Laurent's new compact comes in a tiny tote that mimics the rest of creative director Stefano Pilati's creations.
The bag includes a compact full of YSL illuminating face powder for $65 on Sephora. And it looks just as genuine. As long as you live by the "size isn't everything" motto, you'll be happy. It's complete with the famous YSL Mail graphic, so if you can't show off your own YSL, your makeup can.
