I love that you have so much love for all your bags! So many UA-camr's get a new bag every month and it does not mean much to them. But like myself you have to save and put thought into each purchase. You deserve so much more subscribers! love your channel x x
Hi Emma, might sound like a weird option but I used to work in Clarks shoes, and they do a whole range of shoe care, there's one thing they do called a foam cleaner and it's for suede and nubuck!! They also sell a cleaning brush to go with it, costs around £10 so it would be well worth a try!! Really hope you see this comment and it works for you xx ps they also do a protector spray that I used for all my suede and nubuck shoes, bags and coats. Completely stops denim transfer etc!! It's amazing xx
Wow Emma you actually use your bags on s regular basis.i find that so refreshing. I must admit I didn't think desiger bags could be used that often thought people just brought them for show. Great video love your eloquent delivery.you're so nice .Thank you looking forward to show video xx
oh my, when you said 'Budapest', I swear my heart started to beat faster :D I was born and raised in that beautiful city, and it just literally made me smile to hear one of my fave youtubers mention it :D
Oh, and I love the fact that you show the bags the whole time while talking about them👍🏻 most UA-camrs show the bag for 5 seconds maybe 2-3 times while talking about them, and then we sit and watch them tell their experiences with the bag for 10 minutes with no bag in sight🙄
I love the style of the Givenchy Antigona, and that cream one is gorgeous~ I have a taupe one and I love it! I must say though, just because a bag is "designer" doesn't mean its all that wonderful~ Sometimes a person can simply be wasting their money when there are so many great quality and adorable bags out there~
just came from your best/worst bag video, this vid is surprising long and i did skip a few bags but you are not boring at all, as someone mentioned, great presentation skills 😁👍 love that YSL Monogram Kate AND the last one, so stylish, yes!
You have an amazing "presentation skill"! Love your videos already! Sooo... if you could suggest only one luxury bag to a friend whom you know cannot afford another, would it be one of your choices? and if yes, which one? i know it is a question asked million times, yet... you do have an opinion that could help.. keep up!!
That would depend on your budget. The Gucci Marmont has been my best bag purchase by far, well worth the money. But if you're looking for something with a lower price point then I would also suggest the Gucci Disco (or newer Marmont version) and the Saint Laurent tote 👍🏼
Emma the nubuck suede bag can be cleaned by rubbing it with cornmeal and a dry paper towel..gently rub in a circular motion until stains are gone. It may take two cleanings or just put the cornmeal on the suede and let it sit overnight and rub it off with your fingers the next morning.. this also works on shoes. The cornmeal absorbs the oil or whatever the stain happens to be..it's probably hand lotion or hand sanitizer or just daily use. It can also be cleaned with just a dry paper towel first if the stains aren't too bad. A dry paper towel also will save you a lot of pounds by not using the dry cleaners to clean minor stains on your clothes. A dry paper towel will remove make up from collars alone or along with any type of powder such as baby powder..talc powder..or just plain old cornstarch. Hope this helps..Hugs
RETTAVISION thank you but it’s not suede, it’s very delicate nubuck so you can’t use anything you would use on suede on it. I’ve actually managed to get it looking a bit better with a dry magic eraser but after speaking to Chloe they basically told me it’s impossible to clean because it’s so delicate 🤦🏼♀️
Hi! I would always spray nubuck with protector like you would shoes, keeps it cleaner for longer & waterproof!! The one for vans is really good!!! Love all you do! Great style! Keep it coming!!!LOVE ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love the simon miller bag! Very unique and lovely. Im a big suede fan but you are right about having to be careful with it or it gets dirty fast. I use Scotchguard on all my new items including suede to prevent stains. Haven't had any problems with that yet!
Hi Emma, I had the same problem with my red suede Celine bag. Wore it to death, had denim transfer on the back, but managed to restore it with a nail file. You need to lightly rub the dirty part of the suede/nubuck with a clean nail file. It should take the top layer of the leather off together with the dirt. It restored my bag to a practically 'as new' condition. But do try it somewhere on the edge first- you never know how the specific material with react.
Great collection, Emma! I was also wondering where you purchased the blue velvet chair you're sitting on, don't know if you've mentioned it before? Thanks so much!
I'm so happy that you've made this video! My boyfriend will be buying me a bag for my birthday, yet I still don't know which bag I really want! It will be my first luxurious bag, so I want to have it for years. I love Faye, but because of the material I probably won't go for it. Gucci Marmont is a nice choice. If you get a chance, please make a video of the best and the worst handbags, maybe include ones on the your wishlist too? :) take care xxx
I will definitely add that to the list 👍🏼 I couldn't recommend the Gucci enough, it's practical, chic, quite classic and it goes with everything 🙌🏼 The Faye is a beautiful bag but because of that nubuck flap I would buy with caution and don't expect it to look pristine for long. They do now make them in all leather which could be worth considering though 😘
If you're feeling brave I would use a rubber (eraser) and go over the markings on the nubuck and suede (they're essentially the same thing just different sides of skin) with that (that should get a majority of the marking off). I used to work in a higher end shoe store where all of our shoes were leather and that seemed to work a treat for us. You could also try a suede or nubuck shampoo but I would test it on a small patch first. To be honest, the shampoos while they do work, will generally take some of the colour out of the nubuck leather too. In future to prevent any marking or colour transfer, I would always, always, always water proof your bags first. You can use any waterproofer made for smaller leather goods so long as it doesn't have silicon in it (sometimes silicon can discolour lighter shoes). If you try any of these, good luck! :)
New subscriber here - love this vid, great info about so many iconic bags! Thank you! Nubuck is a horrible material, easily destroyed, impossible to fix. I had a pair of Kurt Gieger shoes in this material - never again! So glad I found your channel x
I've been told this before and you know what I might just give it a try now. Faye can't get any worse and I don't use her anyway so I guess it's worth a shot 👍🏼 Thank you x
Emma Hill Trust me it works! I have a Faye too and I had some color transfer on the back of mine and just lightly rubbing a dry one took it right off! You'd be surprised.
The Marmont 100%. Leather is always so much more practical for a bag and I use mine soooo much. It's quite a classic shape/design too, kind of like the Chanel 2.55 but at more than half the price 🙊
But then someone could just take that entire insert out and therefore steal the entire contents of my bag in one go 😕 In my opinion it's just a bit of a design flaw, with a bag that cost £480 you shouldn't have to buy another bag to go inside it surely 🤷🏼♀️ x
Emma, I know you posted this a couple of months ago, but I just watched it today. I have a suggestion to clean your Chloe Faye bag. I also didn’t read any of the other comments so I don’t know if anyone has given this suggestion. Anyway, I have pink Nubuck Swedish hasbeens they got a little dirty from wearing them out. My mom suggested I use a mr. clean magic eraser and it took off the black scuff marks. I also don’t know if they have that brand in the uk??? Sorry this was a long response and I hope this helps! Kara
Recently stumbled upon your channel and I'm immediately hooked!! Love your videos!❤️ I have been looking at the Gucci Soho Disco for a long while now and definitely think it's time to take the punch and purchase it!
I've been scorned by nubuck in the past as well, my condolences. My bag was actually a medium brown color and it got some sort of a grease stain on it that couldn't be cleaned. It's such a shame because it's such a luxuriously soft fabric, but so fragile! I don't think I would purchase another nubuck bag again.
Do you remember what the white T-shirt you’re wearing is called on the Asos website? Your link for some reason doesn’t lead me to the page of the t-shirt. Thanks 😊
Hi Emma! Seriously inspired me to update my handbag game. I really love the Saint Laurent Tote but its price tag scares me a bit, do you or anyone in the comments know of a good dupe for it? :)
Great Collection. wonder if a leather specialist could replace the flap of the light colored chloe faye if some of the cleaning comments here don't work? The olive color you have is so so good. Antigona..that's one of my favorite bags, good structure, practical size, classic. i bought one on the Real Real for a great price and love it. Loved this video Emma!
I have tried about 10 leather specialists to see if there's anything they could do but no one will touch it. Apparently the Chloe Faye is a notorious bag and they all advised me to complain to Chloe. I did try the magic eraser and that has made an improvement 👍🏼 LOVE the Antigona, what size and colour do you have? x
Hi Emma!! What a nice collection! I have the soho disco gucci bag in the same color and It was a present from my boyfriend! Im going to London in a few weeks and I wanted to know if it is cheaper to buy a bag in Heathrow that the rest of the shops because I want a saint Laurent bag and maybe I can save some money Thank you !!
Hey Ruth, ooooo bag twins 😘 Yes it is much cheaper to buy a bag in duty free at Heathrow as it's tax exempt (20% off) but you have to be flying from Terminal 4 because that's the only terminal with a Saint Laurent store 👍🏼
I looooove your Gucci swing mini - I've been searching for this for almost a year. I missed it when they had it in the store and I haven't been able to find one in black.
I was going to, I wanted it dyed black but had the same issue, because the flap is Nubuck and not suede it can't actually be re-dyed as it won't 'hold' the dye 😖
Do you still have the Celine box bag in your collection? What are your thoughts on it? I think it's such a stunning bag but have heard that the leather scratches very easily:/
"in the crook of your arm like a wag.." Ha! Never heard of that before. But yes, sell that suede Celine, think of all the better bags you could get ;) Love your Antigona's x
I don't have a Celine Box bag that's why. I used to have a dupe, it was real leather and it was similar to a box bag but I gave that to my sister in law, I'm still on the hunt for a Box bag myself 👍🏼
Hi Emma! You have a beautiful bag collection (the 2018 also, haha :)). Just got a YSL tote and trying to decide whether do spray it - yours looks great and the color is so vibrant, did you spray it? If yes - with what, and are you happy you did? If not - has it held up nicely? Thank you so much!
No this was the colour I purchased but it has held up nicely, no marks. 👍🏼 I think I go into more detail in my best and worst handbag video if you want to check that out. 👍🏼
I'm going to be really honest with you Esme, I'm really crap at saving money. When there's something I really want then I definitely try and behave a little more with my money and it takes me a bit longer to put it aside but for the most part saving isn't my strong point. I do sometimes do a wardrobe cleanse and sell bags/clothing/shoes that I no longer to use to put towards a new bag purchase. I didn't always buy designer bags but as I got older and started earning more money then I had to means to be able to afford them. I don't have a wardrobe full of designer clothes but I do love to splurge on shoes and accessories 🙊💋
Emma Hill we all have a system which works for us right? It looks like this system works pretty great for you since you have a lovely home and a beautiful collection of shoes and bags! Looking forward to your next video already 💋
Ariat ( a brand that makes leather goods for horses ) makes a suade and nebuck cleaner its like a foam that you massage into the material its only £7 from online tack shops ( R and R country stocks it ) its avery delicate cleaner so it may work for your bag.
Ahhhh thanks for the tip. I used a Magic Eraser in the end as that was quite gentle, because this nubuck is so delicate. But I'll definitely bare that in mind for the future 💋
I cant see any dirt on that Faye nr 1, i think you should wear it not so visible. Ecco shoe shop have Nubuck cleaning products, check if that would work. Or ask Chloe as they may be able to send it for cleaning as I do with my Celine if I had a demage.
I think it's a bit difficult to see the damage on the Faye on camera but in real life it was pretty bad 😣 However I have managed to clean it now using a dry Magic Eraser 👍🏼
"yes! I married the right rude!" Lol I'm still waiting for my hubby to do that haha but I do love all the designer bags that I buy for myself with my own money.
Love you bag collection! I wish I'll have one as nice as yours one day!😍😍 A little comment that stray from bags talk...I absolutely love your accent and the terms that you use I love your PROPER ENGLISH! I would love to speak like you but my Italian accent kinda stops me lol 😂 Anyway love following you and sorry for the rant lol xx
Hi Emma! I just discovered your channel and I love it! Indeed in France we say "matelassé" (very well pronounced) and for "cabas" we don't pronounce the "s" at the end, just "caba" ^^ Looking forward to see your other videos ;)
I thought you was around 22-24 yrs old! So your my age? Round about anyways! But I get ID all the time cause they say " I'm not even 21😂😂" I thought I had the handbags from Coach, MK's and Kate Spades but I'd love to have a Givenchy hand bag💜 Yeah I can't do gold and silver jewelry either when my handbag has gold!! I love that Misty Beige also😉 Love all your hauls and videos! So how do you store all your handbags?
I would say to be very wary of an all suede bag like that, you can see how dirty the flap on the back of mine has got and for the money you'll spend on it, you're gonna want to use it LOTS 🙊 Black suede would be more practical but suede in general is just a nightmare. I know the GG [rint isn't everyone's cup of tea but it's classic and so easy to clean/wears very well 👍🏼
Are they going to paint the bag or dye it? Because painted leather becomes kind of a pain in the tookus to take care of. You might want to check on the upkeep before you do it.
I do believe it's painted because the leather has already been treated so cannot be dyed again. But thanks for letting me know I didn't know there would be an issue with the upkeep so deffo something to bare in mind 💋
The site is called Vestiaire: rstyle.me/n/cqqgacwdg6 and it's where can you safely buy genuine pre-owed designer goods with no risk of being ripped off like on eBay 👍🏼
The Faye was sprayed with a specialist Nubuck protector once when I bought it and topped up regularly after that, but a spray can only do so much. You can't use leather cleaner on Calfskin Nubuck, although believe me I've tried on the back of the bag and caused even more damage. I actually spoke to Chloe last week and they informed me that the flaps on these bags cannot be cleaned....great 🙄
I don't think you should paint the whit part of pierce bag beceuse the texture is easy to clean and plus it's more unique than an all black version. Instead you should paint the nubuck part of the beige color Faye into a darker shade, that would help covering the dirt marks. :]
You can't actually paint or re-dye nubuck on the Chloe Faye, believe me I've tried. I've taken it to 10 leather specialists and some handbags spas and no on will touch it. The good news is that I did manage to improve the appearance of the flap with a magic eraser and I took Faye out the other day and she looks much better now 😀 I think with the pierce I'm probably going to sell it and buy the full black version because I just don't use this one enough, it's a shame to have it sat unused in my closet when someone else could get some joy out of it 😊 x
anyone know the exact style name of the black Gucci top handle bag? I couldn't quite get it from what she said and there is no link as its not available anymore
+Emma Hill nothing came up when I searched that but after a lot of digging I was able to find it it's the small swing cross body tote with top handle quite a mouthful
I've managed to clean it now. I did want to have it dyed black but you can't actually re-dye or spray the nubuck part, apparently according to several leather specialists the dye or paint wound;t hold 🤷🏼♀️
I love that you have so much love for all your bags! So many UA-camr's get a new bag every month and it does not mean much to them. But like myself you have to save and put thought into each purchase. You deserve so much more subscribers! love your channel x x
Thank you very much and yes I put a lot of thought into each bag, although sometimes I do regret certain decisions 🙈
Hi Emma, might sound like a weird option but I used to work in Clarks shoes, and they do a whole range of shoe care, there's one thing they do called a foam cleaner and it's for suede and nubuck!! They also sell a cleaning brush to go with it, costs around £10 so it would be well worth a try!! Really hope you see this comment and it works for you xx ps they also do a protector spray that I used for all my suede and nubuck shoes, bags and coats. Completely stops denim transfer etc!! It's amazing xx
Stephiee961 thanks for recommending the protecting spray I use that on all my suede and nubuck ❤️
Love that your collection is not like all other bag collections I've watched. You're very true to yourself and what you like and I love that!
Love how unique your bag collection is. You have bags in colorways and styles I haven't seen. A lot of people just haul the same bags all the time
Wow, you are absolutely humble. One of my absolute favourites bloggers. You have amazing style and your personality is lovely!
Wow Emma you actually use your bags on s regular basis.i find that so refreshing. I must admit I didn't think desiger bags could be used that often thought people just brought them for show. Great video love your eloquent delivery.you're so nice .Thank you looking forward to show video xx
oh my, when you said 'Budapest', I swear my heart started to beat faster :D I was born and raised in that beautiful city, and it just literally made me smile to hear one of my fave youtubers mention it :D
I LOVE THE BLACK AND WHITE! DON'T CHANGE IT!
I love the stud detail on the first bag! Never though I liked the Antigonas until I saw this one
I was the same, I wasn't a big fan at first and then they grew on me and when I saw this one I was in luuuuurve 🙊
That is my favorite. Followed of course by the light one just like it but smaller and pebbled.
Conclusion: we all need a Simon in our life 😅
Have you seen his dress sense? Be careful what you wish for that's all I'm saying 😂😘
I love your collection! Thank you so much for sharing it with us. I would love to see a best and worst handbag video as well. Thank you!
I will definitely work on that x

I just saw this video today, but I’m impressed because of yours’ bag collection ❤️ fav video
You are so natural Emma, your videos on here and Insta are such a breeze to watch. Content level 100
Girl you are my fav blogger of all time 😍😍
just came from your best/worst bag video, this vid is surprising long and i did skip a few bags but you are not boring at all, as someone mentioned, great presentation skills 😁👍 love that YSL Monogram Kate AND the last one, so stylish, yes!

That would depend on your budget. The Gucci Marmont has been my best bag purchase by far, well worth the money. But if you're looking for something with a lower price point then I would also suggest the Gucci Disco (or newer Marmont version) and the Saint Laurent tote 👍🏼
thank you for your time! I think the tote is for me.. Thank you Emma!
M
When she said "for my 30th birthday a couple years ago," wait huh?! I literally thought she was 25-26ish
OMG will you be my new best friend 🤣 I'm 32 in 2 weeks 👉🏼👵🏼🙊 x
Emma Hill You’re 32?! I would have put you in the twenties for sure
yes she looks like she's in her twenties !! and yes she has married the right guy!!
Emma the nubuck suede bag can be cleaned by rubbing it with cornmeal and a dry paper towel..gently rub in a circular motion until stains are gone.

Ooo god tip thank you, I'll give that a go 💋
"Jackpot, I married the right, dude!" You're so cute, honey and on point. That man of yours is a keeper ;D
i think the celine bag is quite nice despite it is unuseful but i think it ll go super nice with casual outfits like you are wearing in the video :)
Great collection, Emma! I was also wondering where you purchased the blue velvet chair you're sitting on, don't know if you've mentioned it before? Thanks so much!
I'm so happy that you've made this video! My boyfriend will be buying me a bag for my birthday, yet I still don't know which bag I really want! It will be my first luxurious bag, so I want to have it for years. I love Faye, but because of the material I probably won't go for it. Gucci Marmont is a nice choice.

I love that you disclose when you use gift vouchers; I am a huge fan ofyour doggos!
I'm obsessed with the two Gucci bags you introduced, but not sure which one to buy
I would highly recommend the 'Marmont' in black leather. It comes in quite a few sizes now too but it's just a great bag and it wears so well 🙌🏼
Hi Emma lovely video . Can you tell us where the chair your sitting on is from please . I love that navy and gold combination 😍
You can find my chair here: rstyle.me/~9DZe7
Love your collection! 💕 quite a few of these are on my wish list!
Emma try the magic eraser on the ivory Givenchy too! I had light leather in my car that always get dye transfer and the Magic eraser always works!!
Oh fab thanks for the tip, it worked dry on my light coloured Faye 👍🏼
If you're feeling brave I would use a rubber (eraser) and go over the markings on the nubuck and suede (they're essentially the same thing just different sides of skin) with that (that should get a majority of the marking off).

Such a unique collection, I love your taste in handbags!
Thank you very much x
Hi there again, definitely paint the pierced bag in all white, although have to admit the black & white combo is so elegant 👍🏻
Noooo I wanted to paint it all black not all white 🙊 I couldn't be trusted with an all white bag 🤣
Great video ! I have the antigona in Ivory but the mini one, I have denim transfer too and I'm gutted :( but it's still a beautiful bag ! Xx
That's the only downside to these beautiful light coloured bags 😫
Hi Emma, have you tried a suede brush to clean Faye? I have one and it works miracles!
I love your Chanel. Great taste, style and personality. I just subscribed!
New subscriber here - love this vid, great info about so many iconic bags! Thank you! Nubuck is a horrible material, easily destroyed, impossible to fix. I had a pair of Kurt Gieger shoes in this material - never again! So glad I found your channel x
Great video, love your story behind the bags and the fact you put the price!
I just bought a Gucci Marmont camera bag and did a video on my channel. Your video makes me wanna get the Marmont medium bag! Love your collection!
Honestly I couldn't love a bag more, well worth every tax free penny I spent on it 🙊
You kinda remind me of Maria Sharapova.Loved this video :)
Glad you enjoyed x
Karina Shchukina omg i see it too
Have you tried new buck cleaner? Do you have that in the U.K.?
You'd be surprised but the mr. clean magic eraser does wonders!! Just gentle scrub it and it will get rid of it!
I've been told this before and you know what I might just give it a try now. Faye can't get any worse and I don't use her anyway so I guess it's worth a shot 👍🏼 Thank you x
Emma Hill Trust me it works! I have a Faye too and I had some color transfer on the back of mine and just lightly rubbing a dry one took it right off! You'd be surprised.
Id agree with that too, as long as use it dry and gently, its well worth a try xx
And you used in on the unbuckle part not just the leather yeh? This makes me very excited that I might, just maybe get her a little bit cleaner 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Emma Hill try soft brush
For an everyday bag would you recommend the ysl Kate in a medium or the Gucci marmont in a small? I can't decide!
The Gucci Marmont fur sure. The YSL is more of an evening bag and is very narrow so you can't actually fit much in there x
OMG I love your collection!! I'm still deciding between Dionysus and Marmont. Which one do you suggest?
The Marmont 100%. Leather is always so much more practical for a bag and I use mine soooo much. It's quite a classic shape/design too, kind of like the Chanel 2.55 but at more than half the price 🙊
For the simon Miller, you can get a zipped bag insert so it's basically like you have a zip top :)
But then someone could just take that entire insert out and therefore steal the entire contents of my bag in one go 😕 In my opinion it's just a bit of a design flaw, with a bag that cost £480 you shouldn't have to buy another bag to go inside it surely 🤷🏼♀️ x
You have an amazing taste. Great video :)
Thank you very much 😘

Recently stumbled upon your channel and I'm immediately hooked!! Love your videos!❤️ I have been looking at the Gucci Soho Disco for a long while now and definitely think it's time to take the punch and purchase it!
It's such a great bag, I'm always so amazing at how much crap I can stuff in there 🙌🏼 x

LOVED this video girl, you have the best collection! My favourite has to be the Khaki Faye bag and the Gucci Soho (dreamy husband alert!) xx
ahhhh thanks dude 😘
Hi Emma!! What a nice collection! I have the soho disco gucci bag in the same color and It was a present from my boyfriend!
Im going to London in a few weeks and I wanted to know if it is cheaper to buy a bag in Heathrow that the rest of the shops because I want a saint Laurent bag and maybe I can save some money
Thank you !!
Hey Ruth, ooooo bag twins 😘
Yes it is much cheaper to buy a bag in duty free at Heathrow as it's tax exempt (20% off) but you have to be flying from Terminal 4 because that's the only terminal with a Saint Laurent store 👍🏼
Emma Hill thank you very much!! You are si Kind.
What a classic taste in your collection, very nice! Love it!
Thank you x
hi emma.. I am deciding which bag to buy between the Givenchy antigona and the Loewe puzzle bag.. since you have both, which do you wear the most?
Federica Romano she wears the puzzle the most!
thanks..
Am thinking of Givenchy all the time now
Hi Emma you could always get the nubuck part dyed a different colour sweetie 😉👍❤️
They can't actually do it to the Faye bag, no professional would touch it :(
I looooove your Gucci swing mini - I've been searching for this for almost a year. I missed it when they had it in the store and I haven't been able to find one in black.
Why don't you dye the Chloe Faye flap another colour. ?? Love you and your UA-cam !!
I was going to, I wanted it dyed black but had the same issue, because the flap is Nubuck and not suede it can't actually be re-dyed as it won't 'hold' the dye 😖
Loving your channel - found you and subscribed today! Most importantly ... where is that lovely blue chair from?!
🙊 you can find my beautiful chair here: bit.ly/2xnjKmu 💋
Do you still have the Celine box bag in your collection? What are your thoughts on it? I think it's such a stunning bag but have heard that the leather scratches very easily:/
"in the crook of your arm like a wag.." Ha! Never heard of that before. But yes, sell that suede Celine, think of all the better bags you could get ;) Love your Antigona's x
Hi, where is the blue chair you are sitting on from please. Love them
You can find that chair here: rstyle.me/~9DZe7
Love the collection! Can you tell me where your jeans are from???
Yes of course, you can find those jeans here: rstyle.me/n/ch9mmnwdg6 💋
Emma, you did not add your Celine Box Bag in Medium to this list? If you decide to sell it may I inquire? Thanks :-)
I don't have a Celine Box bag that's why. I used to have a dupe, it was real leather and it was similar to a box bag but I gave that to my sister in law, I'm still on the hunt for a Box bag myself 👍🏼
I'm in love with Faye number two 😍😍😍
OMG your have a lovely collections!!! Keep making the videos!!!
Have you ever thought of having the nubuck part on you Faye bag dyed?
Hi Emma! You have a beautiful bag collection (the 2018 also, haha :)). Just got a YSL tote and trying to decide whether do spray it - yours looks great and the color is so vibrant, did you spray it? If yes - with what, and are you happy you did? If not - has it held up nicely? Thank you so much!
No this was the colour I purchased but it has held up nicely, no marks. 👍🏼 I think I go into more detail in my best and worst handbag video if you want to check that out. 👍🏼
I will, thanks for your reply!
Could you do a video on how you save for these gorgeous bags? I definitely need some tips 🤗
I'm going to be really honest with you Esme, I'm really crap at saving money. When there's something I really want then I definitely try and behave a little more with my money and it takes me a bit longer to put it aside but for the most part saving isn't my strong point. I do sometimes do a wardrobe cleanse and sell bags/clothing/shoes that I no longer to use to put towards a new bag purchase. I didn't always buy designer bags but as I got older and started earning more money then I had to means to be able to afford them. I don't have a wardrobe full of designer clothes but I do love to splurge on shoes and accessories 🙊💋
Emma Hill we all have a system which works for us right? It looks like this system works pretty great for you since you have a lovely home and a beautiful collection of shoes and bags! Looking forward to your next video already 💋
Amazing collection! Love them! Can't have enough of them! xoxo
Ariat ( a brand that makes leather goods for horses ) makes a suade and nebuck cleaner its like a foam that you massage into the material its only £7 from online tack shops ( R and R country stocks it ) its avery delicate cleaner so it may work for your bag.
Ahhhh thanks for the tip. I used a Magic Eraser in the end as that was quite gentle, because this nubuck is so delicate. But I'll definitely bare that in mind for the future 💋
I cant see any dirt on that Faye nr 1, i think you should wear it not so visible. Ecco shoe shop have Nubuck cleaning products, check if that would work. Or ask Chloe as they may be able to send it for cleaning as I do with my Celine if I had a demage.
I think it's a bit difficult to see the damage on the Faye on camera but in real life it was pretty bad 😣 However I have managed to clean it now using a dry Magic Eraser 👍🏼
"yes! I married the right rude!" Lol I'm still waiting for my hubby to do that haha but I do love all the designer bags that I buy for myself with my own money.
Nothing to beats a 'To me, Love me' present 🙌🏼🙊
Love the selection! xx
Love you bag collection!
I wish I'll have one as nice as yours one day!😍😍
A little comment that stray from bags talk...I absolutely love your accent and the terms that you use I love your PROPER ENGLISH!
I would love to speak like you but my Italian accent kinda stops me lol 😂
Anyway love following you and sorry for the rant lol xx
haha thank you 💋
Aww the gucci disco bag was also the first designer bag my boyfriend bought me and your right it's such a good bag and fits so much! great video 😊 x
ahhhhh it must be the boyfriend/husband bag of choice 🙊 x
Emma Hill Haha! I think it must be 😂
Hi Emma! I just discovered your channel and I love it! Indeed in France we say "matelassé" (very well pronounced) and for "cabas" we don't pronounce the "s" at the end, just "caba" ^^
Looking forward to see your other videos ;)
I thought you was around 22-24 yrs old! So your my age? Round about anyways! But I get ID all the time cause they say " I'm not even 21😂😂" I thought I had the handbags from Coach, MK's and Kate Spades but I'd love to have a Givenchy hand bag💜
Yeah I can't do gold and silver jewelry either when my handbag has gold!!
I love that Misty Beige also😉
Love all your hauls and videos!
So how do you store all your handbags?
Hi Emma what do you think of the gucci dionysus in suede?
Not the black suede but the brown/taupe suede?
I would say to be very wary of an all suede bag like that, you can see how dirty the flap on the back of mine has got and for the money you'll spend on it, you're gonna want to use it LOTS 🙊 Black suede would be more practical but suede in general is just a nightmare. I know the GG [rint isn't everyone's cup of tea but it's classic and so easy to clean/wears very well 👍🏼
Are they going to paint the bag or dye it? Because painted leather becomes kind of a pain in the tookus to take care of. You might want to check on the upkeep before you do it.
I do believe it's painted because the leather has already been treated so cannot be dyed again. But thanks for letting me know I didn't know there would be an issue with the upkeep so deffo something to bare in mind 💋
Love your collection Emma, but no Chanel!!!???
Clarissa Harlowe Chanel’s not everyone‘s style
U could try having your Faye re dyed to a slightly different shade
Where did you say you bought some of your bags from at a discounted rate? I didn't catch the name
The site is called Vestiaire: rstyle.me/n/cqqgacwdg6 and it's where can you safely buy genuine pre-owed designer goods with no risk of being ripped off like on eBay 👍🏼
Michael kors leather cleaner and then use the protectant after and you won't have a problem again I use it on most of my bags
The Faye was sprayed with a specialist Nubuck protector once when I bought it and topped up regularly after that, but a spray can only do so much. You can't use leather cleaner on Calfskin Nubuck, although believe me I've tried on the back of the bag and caused even more damage. I actually spoke to Chloe last week and they informed me that the flaps on these bags cannot be cleaned....great 🙄
i love your collection! thank you for sharing this!
love your collection!
I don't think you should paint the whit part of pierce bag beceuse the texture is easy to clean and plus it's more unique than an all black version. Instead you should paint the nubuck part of the beige color Faye into a darker shade, that would help covering the dirt marks. :]
You can't actually paint or re-dye nubuck on the Chloe Faye, believe me I've tried. I've taken it to 10 leather specialists and some handbags spas and no on will touch it. The good news is that I did manage to improve the appearance of the flap with a magic eraser and I took Faye out the other day and she looks much better now 😀 I think with the pierce I'm probably going to sell it and buy the full black version because I just don't use this one enough, it's a shame to have it sat unused in my closet when someone else could get some joy out of it 😊 x
That Celine is so beautiful!
Yes, the color of it, very nice. Perfect shade of camel, not too light or dark.
Lovely collection. Hope I will be able in future to make similar ;) Cheers!
anyone know the exact style name of the black Gucci top handle bag? I couldn't quite get it from what she said and there is no link as its not available anymore
That is the name of it. It was called a 'small top handle' 👍🏼
+Emma Hill nothing came up when I searched that but after a lot of digging I was able to find it it's the small swing cross body tote with top handle quite a mouthful
Quite indeed. All it says on the original tag is small top handle 🙈
I need to get me a Simon. Haha, just found your UA-cam 😍🙌🏼 amazing!! Love this video.
Hi, just spray paint the flap on the Chloe Faye and make it your own...it will be one of a kind ;)
I've managed to clean it now. I did want to have it dyed black but you can't actually re-dye or spray the nubuck part, apparently according to several leather specialists the dye or paint wound;t hold 🤷🏼♀️
New subscriber. Love your collection!
