Sleek and grown-up with that punchy “Y” for a pinch of sass, the ChYc line is fast becoming my favorite of the Yves Saint Laurent collections. First the smart little shoulder bag and now the “Cabas” tote? I’m sold! Substantial totes can overwhelm a petite girl, but just look at Kylie Minogue (cabas chyc in ranch $1,995): the bag blends right in and doesn’t dwarf her in the slightest. It looks like you can fit it tons of stuff too, without the bag losing shape and moving into formless blob territory.
Distressed brown calfskin looks as good with black pants (wildly fringed, in Kylie’s case – a more in-your-face tote would have looked absurd, not chic) as it will this summer with crisp white jeans. This is just the bag I need to take me from meetings to picking my son for his lessons after school – versatile in color and capacity, as chic as it is large. YSL bags at Saks Fifth Avenue.
Dear Bagsnob … i love that YSL cabas tote A lot … but i cant find it at saks.com anymore

Hi Jesse, Call YSL boutique near you! xo
Kylie is a fashion icon and she does it well! I think that fact that she always is the part of pop princess definitely helps her with her music. With her new album that recently came out she is doing great publicity. You kind of have to be the part in order to be an Aphrodite.
