>> I have calculated and this is based upon hardcore mathematical facts with err…calculators and everything… that if I carry this new YSL manifesto tote everyday from today onwards, travelling on about eight to-from work bus journey on weekdays, on about 6-8 tube journeys this weekend and then using it on flight to New York next Wednesday to carry books/cameras/cans of beans/shoes/laptop/hats/jewellery that I inevitably take on/off during the day (delete as appropriate)… then using the bag to carry invitations and press releases during New York, London and in my normal work routine during Milan… it is almost a mathematical certainty that having stared at Christy Turlington working this YSL black leather jumpsuit for approximately 27 days…
… that enough subliminal "You Need Me. Buy Me" messages would have been pumped into my head and by the time I reach Paris on Weds 30th, I will stop by the YSL store, walk in, demand in pidgin French that I would like a black leather jumpsuit even as the sale assistants raise their eyebrows in superfine arches, symbolising their doubt as to whether I could pull off their showpiece black leather jumpsuit. I'd then buy it on a dusty old credit card I haven't used in aaaaaaaaaages and walk out…
…then I would proceed to have shopping amnesia the next morning and stare at the mass of buttery leather in utter disbelief… and then I may put this tote over my head in the shopping hangover equivalent of a bloody mary….
Hilarious. Love the bag, though – as long as you just stick to that you’ll look awesome! 🙂

Love it! The bag is awesome, but I think the leather jumpsuit could probably be avoided – maybe wear another iconic piece of clothing to cancel out the effects of the tote?

Hahaha, gotta love you Susie!
And the YSL People aren’t at all subtle about the subliminal messaging either!
Haha…subliminal fashion messages…you see by day 30 it won’t be your choice anymore of whether to buy or not to buy it. You would’ve been brainwashed so technically you can’t not purchase it!

Hah! Sounds about right! Though I totally think you have the proper sense of humor to pull that thing off.
Bananas!
Haha! You could rock that jumpsuit like no other, Susie!
Ha! Why not rock that leather jumpsuit and claim amnesia afterward? Others have done far worse in the name of fashion, right? 😉

I wish YSL would kindly send me one of these!
Haha, I love the crazy irrational thoughts that spring to mind when you receive something that is as exciting as this!
