Q: What typically fits inside this Saint Laurent Yves Muse Tote Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 42 x 28 x 13 cm, this is a roomy everyday tote. It will generally hold daily essentials such as a wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses, a cosmetics pouch, a notebook, and a small water bottle, with space for a few extra items. Please use the listed measurements as your best guide for exact fit.
Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder? A: For many people, yes. The handle drop is approximately 20 cm, which is often enough for shoulder carry, particularly with lighter layers. Over thicker coats, the fit may feel more snug, so it may also be comfortable carried by hand or in the crook of the arm.
Q: Will it fit a laptop? A: A slim small laptop or tablet may fit depending on its exact dimensions and the usable opening of the bag. We recommend comparing your device measurements directly with the bag measurements shown on this page before purchasing.
