Walking across the parking lot at lunch an accident on the corner half a block down startled me big time. I watch my beautiful bag skitter along the asphalt, thinking it's ruined. Nope. Carefully wipe the dirt off, and not a scratch or scuff on it. The Bal Calfskin is great! Plus it being a smooshy bag. Love my Antigona in oil slick, but that patent leather would have been damaged landing on asphalt. Same with my Michael Kors bags - painted leather, not dyed. Now even more in love with smooshy, unstructured bags - and high quality leather. The ambulance came for the crash, but didn't take anyone away - so assuming they are fine.
 
So a few days ago I was THRILLED to find a HG bag for an amazing deal! Well it came today and... I don’t want to be negative but this bag is about the dirtiest a bag can be. I can see why it was so well priced. It’s either coated in grime or (hopefully not) pigment. I will post to the AT thread shortly. I think I’ll give it hand at restoring it, I just hope it’s not too far gone. I kind of want to but it in the washing machine...:whut:
