Just wondering, if i live in Singapore and it's super humid here, do i need to moisturise my bags? Or should i be buying a dehumidifier instead?

I've never really thought much about bag care.

I just pack with the tissue the bags come it and that's it...

I live in So Fl so I understand humidity lol. That being said I don’t think moisturizing is necessary, but I do it a few times a year with an all in one cleaner/moisturizer . I used to have issues with mildew on bags, but after buying a small dehumidifier a few years ago, no issues. I bought one of the Eva-dry models off Amazon.

@Devyn Danielle , didn't you wish for a sauro tan Valerie with dark brown nappa straps ?

Yep, it was me. I’m not 100% sold on whether Valerie will work for me though.

I really like sauro tan vacchetta; it is so classic and classy, I wonder if it would make the Valerie look too much like a brief case, not a handbag??? Thoughts?

While it probably will look a bit briefcasey at a first glance, it has enough feminine elements (the top handle, studs etc) that it probably won't veer 100% into a brief category.

I am in North East Florida and fortunately we have an entire house dehumidifier which is great. I also clean/moisturize my bags a few times a year.

Tobacco Aquila Matte Penelope Messenger arrived - absolutely gorgeous. With this I received 3 Polsino cuffs. The Mauve Aquila Matte is just gorgeous - my favourite of the three. Dark Teal Diamond is great as is Sugarcane Pompei. My only comment is that the cuff seems a bit wide (maybe wearing them will smoosh them down) and that the medium seems a bit big. I will take them to a cobbler to have an extra hole punched so that I can make them slightly tighter.

My bag of choice today. Little Valerie in blush Pompei with GHW.

As much as I love blue as a color and sugarcane is such a sweet sweet color, I feel that pairing it with little Valerie makes it too young for me. I decide to gift it to my niece who turn 15 last week. She’ll come pick it up this evening. Finger crossed that she’ll like it as much as I do. [emoji4]

I also have another one in Cherry red Nappa which I’m on the fence between gifting it to another niece for simply keep it for myself. But I’ll make a decision on that later. [emoji4]

The Pompei is surprisingly light and bendy. I mean it can bend while holding its shape very well. And it’s super smooth like a nice skating rink or fine china. I’m surprised I like touching it. This may become my choice of leather if I want to order a structured bags from Marco again.

Beautiful color! [emoji173]️

Thanks so much! Taupe (Pompei leather).

Gorgeous bag! Is that a fuzzy stitch you are showing us? It looks like the leather is torn.

Hey Jaspearl, I’m in Singapore too! Me, msd and Vink have an informal SEA swap group, it’s good to have more members! About the humidity issue, mold is a big problem in Singapore but if you put those dehumidifier tubs like Hungry Hippo in your closet, you’ll be fine. I personally buy the charcoal ones from Watsons and they work well for me. Just be careful to put them in a corner where they can’t be knocked over since they fill up with liquid.

Did anyone order anything during the Vacchetta promo? I love the color of that leather it is such a classic.

I didn't but I think it is still open as a group bespoke.
