My sister and I are best friends and do everything together, and now have matching purses. We went to Coach for her to get a new purse and she chose the tan ‘Edie’ with Python accents.
I was moping about, trying not to be jelly, and then she turns around and buys me the chalk Edie. How special did that make me feel! I’ve wanted a chalk coloured purse forever.
Now we’re out and about with matching purses, #lovesisters

Hi TPF. It’s been a while since I’ve posted. I find I am not as tempted to purchase [emoji23][emoji23]

My gorgeous whip stitch Togue is out with me for today. I so live this bag. [emoji177]

Hi tlo. It has been awhile since you have posted on TPF. Glad to hear you are not as tempted anymore while still enjoying your beautiful bags such as this one. Hope you are well T :)

I asked for advice on the rehab thread and a few suggested the washer. Put it in a pillowcase, tied off (I used a hair elastic). I put it in an old school top loader and one poster said use 1/2 tbsp only of baby shampoo. I threw in a large flannel sheet too. They suggested twice through the washer. I think something came up that needed my attention and I only did it once through the washer. I hyperventilated for the first 10 minutes and was then like que será, será. Which is kinda funny cause I have dunked at least a dozen and a half bags, and I can be a bit of a , dunk first and ask later girl! :biggrin: yeah I hear a few snickers. I did carefully apply Leather CPR to the trim.
But the bag was grimy enough that it just nagged at me, so I would not have used it unwashed anyway. So it became a rehab experiment.

It turned out awesome!
I have an old school gallery tote in pink suede that is dirty/possible color transfer on the back side and I won’t carry it because of that. Should I try the washer? Did you protect the leather in any way before washing? I’ve never tried to rehab, but the bag isn’t being carried so it could be worth it! Any advice would be appreciated!

Is this the larger Mercer 30? How do you like it?

It is the 30. I like it but I haven’t been using the crossbody strap as much as I thought I would. The strap attaches to the handles instead of inside the bag like some of the other Mercer bags. Still I like the shape and the pocket dividers. I also feel it looks like a smart, professional bag.
