Omg both are stunning!!

I got a smaller padlock tote and trying to decide if I should get a bigger size instead since I cannot wear it all the way up my arm.
The medium (it seems large to me) padlock tote can be worn on the shoulder. I needed one I could use for work. I do love the smaller one with the shoulder strap too!
 
Hi, does anyone here put some kind of anti water spray to their AMQ purses? I usually never go out with my purses until I put some protection first. I use Apple guard on my Marc Jacob and PS but not sure if would work on AMQ totes (I have the padlock tote). TIA
 
I usually hang out on an Alexander Wang thread. But I LOVE AMQ. I have been advised several times to use Collonil Waterstop. I ordered it on Amazon. It's been said that it helps against transfers of color, for example, rubbing your handbag against your jeans, and also damage from water, etc... I've used it on 3 items and have had no problems, but don't carry my bags enough in those circumstances. I've read that the product you've mentioned is a good one too. Do searches on these threads and on Amazon, which is the mother lode of sites. I've asked several people who are regulars on the A.Wang handbag sites about treatment of their handbags, and Collonil came up many times. However; I'm sure that the one you chose is just as substantial. Good luck!

Thanks for the suggestion! I actually just ordered Collonil a couple days ago for my Chloé Marcie! Hope it works well on my AMQ padlock tote as well :)

True story about the Apple Guard anti water spray. One day at work there was some kind of short circuit accident. The entire floor smelled burnt, the room was badly smokey it was very hard to see around. We had to evacuate so everyone went down the stairs (all the way from 12th floor). I grabbed my purse; that time I was wearing my Proenza Schouler medium PS1 in lagoon (light blue color).

Then we went outside, you know what happened? This took place in December in California and it was pouring. Raining HARD! And we had to stand around for a while while people taking count of everybody, nobody hurt (one guy from my team went missing and everybody panicked etc).

Thank god I already sprayed Apple Guard on my PS1 and I wouldn't imagine otherwise! The bag is still good as new until now. That's why now I never leave with my new post before spaying some protection beforehand!
