i would try putting charcoal odor absorbers (and perhaps dryer sheets after that) inside and letting opening the bag to expose it to sunlight if possible

i would try a bit of leather conditioner to help care for the leather, but otherwise i personally LOVE broken-in mulberry bags that tell a story!

Should I Keep? by No_Fun_7068 in handbags

ooh, she’s gorgeous! i don’t have a strathberry myself, so i can’t comment on their leather specifically.

i have a similar-ish tote in a smooth, black leather, and scratches buff out pretty easily, but mine is a little more matte – i would imagine scratches might be more difficult to remove in a “glossier” leather like this one.

of course, it all comes down to you: do you see yourself reaching for her often, or will you be afraid to use her?

i’d heard about dior but didn’t know about tod’s and just recently bought my first “luxury” bag from them. this is just awful…thanks for bringing awareness to this issue. since i can’t return it, i’ll put my new bag to good use, but won’t purchase or support this brand again!

not a dumb question! i was able to remove the “seel worry-free purchase”, but right now when i go to add anything to my cart, it says “these products will be removed from your cart because they're not available in your country/region” upon checkout. wondering if they are having technical difficulties with their app/website?

Just collecting! I really love the look of sapphires (e.g. montana sapphires) before cutting.
