With an equestrian-style vibe, the Charlie bag from Saint Laurent is the last on our list for the cheapest YSL bags, but most definitely not the leather. This bag encompasses all that’s great about the brand – quality yet understated simplicity. Void of bold logos plastered all over it, this crossbody bag is clearly a designer piece, without the need to shout.

Do YSL Bags Ever Go On Sale?

The answer is yes, YSL bags do go on sale. YSL sales happen via their outlets and some third-party retailers who will discount stock. YSL also has multiple outlets around the world which sell discount stock – one of my personal favorites is Bicester Village in Oxford, UK. Check out my vlogs on YouTube, where I regularly visit the outlet and film before and after prices of popular discounted YSL bags. However, the brand no longer has many, if any sales on the main website as it is trying to position itself as a luxury brand that doesn’t discount on a frequent basis.

Some popular brands that discount YSL bags in the US are Nordstrom and RueLaLa, as well as Selfridges, Flannels, and Browns Fashion in the UK.
