just to throw a cat amongst the pigeons- doesn't the fact that you have 2 edith hobos (and not 2 of anything else) mean you love that exact style? No-one agrees with me but I think you should get rid of the roche hobo and choc paddy tote- then you are left with a really good colour combination, still have a dark brown (well, kind of with the paddy) and got rid of two extra dark browns; and you have 3 classic styles plus the maize- which i love, and with the maize you have a cream bag. So other than the fact all the bags are in the white to brown spectrum, you cover all your bases. (I do understand that pretty well no-one agrees with me :wtf:)

The Roche Edith is the one bag I'm sure of. I love the color... a bit brown, a bit taupe... a little grey. lol. I just can't decide on the muscade paddy and the chocolate tote paddy. I'd have to sell the muscade paddy, but i can just return the tote. argh. I know, I'm sure there are worst things to decide on in life. lol.

OH no, I did it! I got some ugly pen marks on my Blanc Paddy!
Any suggestions on how to remove it???? It's on the top of the bag near the zipper.
I tried a drop of soap and water, but it didn't budge:cursing:
Thanks in advance:heart:

Anything with alcohol will remove pen marks, like rubbing alcohol from your medicine cabinet or nail polish remover. But, you have to be EXTREMELY careful, because it will also remove some of the color from the leather too. I did try to remove pen mark from my paddy with relative success. What I did was take a cotton swab, dab the alcohol, and only apply it to the pen mark, and try to avoid area around the penmark as much as possible. I was able to remove most of the penmark. Good Luck!

That's a nightmare Cloebagfreak. I would recommend Amodex which worked brilliantly on permanent marker on my cream couch. Here is a link to a thread where Beanie was wondering whether to try it on a paddy- perhap you could pm her and ask if she did/ if it worked.

Good luck :heart:

I did the same thing to the leather seats of my car- an Audi with gray leather seats. It's not exactly the same kind of leather but... I used a Magic Eraser- one of those you get in the kitchen cleaning section at the store. It took all the marks off and left the leather alone. I also used it to remove black stains from my DH's SUV with beige leather seats. It looked like someone's Tshirt had bled onto the seat. Yet, it took all of it off even though leather cleaner and alcohol did nothing. Plus I was worried alcohol might remove the color...this didn't.

I've never used it on a purse before, but if you had an old, cheap purse you could test it out first before using on the paddy
