I just got myself my first LV. It’s a Saumur 35 and I’m just so in love 🥰 thank you for this informative video. Very helpful 😁 I also just ordered Apple brand leather care and it arrives tomorrow. Just now seeing the video so now I’m thinking twice about my decision 😅
With brand new leather. I sit the bag out on a sunny day for a few hours, then spray it down with the Apple Garde, leave it in my garage for 1-2 days and I’ve had my bags for years and no water stains. The leather will patina over time but it’s a slower process and the handles are easy to wipe down. Please keep in mind if you use your bag often to clean and retreat every few months.
Great video. I've had my Speedy for more than 20 years and didn't really treat it with anything. I used and abused it and it's still in a great shape. The only thing that bothers me is that handles became very dark. I may to use a scarf or something to cover them as the bag itself is still perfect. This why I like LV. Their bags last you a lifetime.
I love LV canvas. I probably need to treat my older bags with conditioner, I never thought to do that LOL I always get great advice from you!!! Thanks for all the information!!!!
Hi. I’m planning to buy a preloaded LV with microfiber from what goes around comes around ny. The bags had a smell is this normal? Store clerk said yes.
Yes, if it’s stored in an enclosed space, it will develop a smell. Please watch my Livestream on Wednesdays if you are shopping pre-loved. I can inspect them, unlike shopping online.
I have the LYXBAG , Bastia, and Kelly pockets like you, and I agree that the buttons on the Kelly pockets are too prominent. I like the Bastia and Calvi for being relatively flat and not "cramped"!
I just sent a vintage badford bag in to repair, they are replacing the lining, I am so happy it can be repaired but it is going to be 300 to fix but if I don't I can't use it so, I am getting it fixed
I just received a PM for Christmas. How often and when should I start conditioning the canvas? I am so nervous about cracking. I’ll probably just use the bag in the evenings and on the weekends. It is stored in its dust cover otherwise.
I really enjoyed this video. I don’t mind your voice at all! Still was soothing and calming if you ask me! It’s wild to me that people think they can abuse their bags and expect a replacement for free!
Hi Michelle thank for all the LV videos I wonder how to ensure the longevity of the goldhareware of LV bags, prevebnt tarnishing of this is even possible. Can we have Goldhardware replaced at Lv? Thank you n take care pf your voice . U share many imsightful info of lv bag
Thank you for this video! I just got a vintage monogram canvas bag but it has a sticky residue on a few areas of the canvas and vachetta. What is the safest way to remove the stickiness without damaging it? Would a particular leather cleaner be recommended for this. It's almost like a sticky goo but has pretty clear edges to the ribbon of stickiness almost like tape lines?
What are your thoughts on the Boétie? It’s one of LV’s newer bags, and it looks like it would be a great day to day purse since it’s so spacious. I personally think it’s cute, but others seem to be split.
Great video. I love LV canvas, the best in the fashion house. They do last a lifetime and I only get the classics : speedy and nevwrfull for travel. The canvas is the most profitable I bet than the leathers
#amzlv The canvas tote actually reminds me of the Hermes Garden Party too. Thanks for making this video to suggest more budget friendly alternatives. love it!
Loved your video. Can you recommend a conditioner for Empriente Leather? I have a 2013 Speedy b in Havane, and it feels totally dry but don’t want to affect the embossed LV. Thank you
I hope you feel better soon! the lining of my preowned toiletries 26 was nasty. it was all peely and sticky gummy. I ripped it out entirely, which I realize makes it no longer in "collectible" condition, but at least it's usable now. LMAO the life time warranty. just tell the little artesian man in the back it needs a free repair before he heads off to France to make all the bags himself. =) there could be a Fairy Tales book about LV with all the crazy rumors, I love it.
Would LV allow me to purchase a replacement/repair of a torn speedy zipper (canvas still intact) that’s from 1982? I have no proof of purchase/authenticity for it as it was passed down.
Hi. Can you safely use the leather conditioner on the special edition canvas with the screen printed art work? Will it protect it from chipping or could the chemicals cause the canvas to bleed?
I bought a 1976 Montsouri pm from Japan. It was listed as and is in what they called A condition. It basically looks new. I am thinking that I should give the vachetta some conditioner because it’s has age, but don’t want to hurt the condition. What do you suggest?
Do you have a video on the pay structure at lv? I was thinking of going to work there but I heard from a Chanel employee that would not be a good idea. To go work in stores individually owned
Question, I got this pre loved LV monogram bag. Have taken it out during this summer heat, and I’ve noticed my bag get these white scuff marks. Internet says something about it being fat or what not. What’s your take on this? Is it considered a manufacture defect? Hand sanitizer? I have not conditioned the canvas as I am afraid to ruin it. Only have used natural baby wipes to clean the bag when I first got it. Anyway, I hope you’re having a great day. Hope to hear from you. Sincerely, a fan. lol
Loved the video & so happy I never used anything on my bags. Question I have the Artsy and the LV Tulieries. I love my Artsy. Do you recommend buying a bag insert, will it prolong the microfiber to deteriorate? Though I don't really love the Tulieries, wondering should I sell and get something I want. Honestly would like to get a good price for it but not sure what platform is the best to sell.
Hmm so from the CA’s we do not recommend it because the corners of the organizer might cause the bag to wear in those areas. That’s why no organizers are sold in store, we dunno what it does to the bag!
@@dialmstyle ok....Thank you soooo MUCH. 😁I'm new to LV. I purchased my first and last bag in December as gift to myself for working the entire year of 2022! And THANKS for replying 🙂
@@dialmstyle thank you! There are some UA-camrs that have recommended it, but I have been afraid. I had LV change the vachetta in a backpack I purchased almost 20 years ago. The backpack looks gorgeous, so I am glad I never sprayed it!!! Thanks again. XO
I have a lot LV bags , my speedy 35 four yrs old my handles are still very light because I don't handle my bag unless it's cover . I Never put my bags in the sun for a long period Btw I hate Tesla I return mines got a BMW Great video
When I first knew LV in 1990, my stewardess girlfriend convinced me to buy one because it had lifetime guarantee (back then). I bought a Noe in Switzerland. Used it for a couple of years and neglected it. Decided to replace all the leather but had no courage to ask for a quote in SG boutique and instead I opted to replace at a leather shop. Found out I would have paid less by about $500 if I had it repaired at LV boutique instead. I regretted not checking earlier. I would not have repaired if the leather did not have a hole, though😂. Thank you for an educational session again.😊
Do you think the canvas has changed? I had a Meile that developed corner wear in 3 days of hardly using. I returned it. I was thinking of the Graceful but heard of corner issues in the canvas. My bag from 1993 has hardly any canvas wear and was used a lot.
I am so devided about the vachetta. I like the vintage patina, but it could so easily become scruffy and look like something i want to puke at just from looking at it. I sort of expect a handbag from LV at that price to be very nice and the vachetta makes it so hard to appreciate the classic monogram Canvas pattern since it always almost comes with vachetta and the uncertainty of how it would wear over time makes it difficult for me to use and enjoy the bag
Yep. I’m sure This is why LV have introduced a few pieces with pre treated leather. Personally I really love the dark leather on the carryall pm pre treated look of the leather is more practical and it’ll darken evenly
I was at a outdoor party and watched a woman walk up to a bar and plop her Neverfull bag on the bar and walk away. I inched closer and closer to the bag to get a good look at it. Like, who does that with a bag? I commented to her that I liked her bag and she was shocked when I mentioned it was the Neverfull. Then she got a bit worried when I explained to her I used to resell high end luxury bags. Never touched her bag, but if it was fake I didn't care.... She avoided me the rest of the party. 😆😆
In my opinion she wasn't drunk. I think she was just showboating. It was my brother's former sister in law. A little tip for the subscribers on here, if you gou to a auction house and they have a high end bag ask them to see it. They are very friendly to unlock the case and show you the item.

Same here! Apple garde has saved my vachetta and I love it!
Such a great collection of vintage/pre owned bags! A vintage LYXBAG is definitely also on my list
I have a question! What about the new high rise bum bag?? Can I use apply guard for the strap or anything for the inside??
Great video.

he variety of textures in the HIDUPZ tpack is impressive. From smooth leather to textured suede, there's something for everyone.
Great Video, What we’re the reasons why not to spray with Apple Garde? Sry I’m new to lv so was wondering. Ty

Hi , love your videos ! How can I get the smell out of my trouville ? Would LV replace the lining ?
Hi, thank you for this video. A question, can I condition a white Murakami multicolor bag? will that damage the white color?
A very wealth friend told me to use armour wipes on the bags she uses them on all her bags even Chanel
Are we supposed to use leather cleaner on canvas bags or just conditioner? Like do we need to clean the canvas? Thank you so much
It’s a cleaner and conditioner in one.

Michelle you are so funny!! 😂😂 “too bad” plus I love how your strait forward. Enjoyed watching
Thanks Dileen 💕
Yes I always clean and condition my bags with leather cleaner. It keeps the canvas from cracking

Great video Michelle! I never knew about treating canvas, I will have to get some of that polish.
Hi Flo! I hope you are doing well!
What a great vlog. I love my Neverful Med and GM. And Longchamp. Use it on flights and road trips. To my two daughters-in-law. 😍 *Niceshopx* 😍

It's ok to condition it if it's already aged.
@@dialmstyle it’s an older bag but looks new. Vachetta is very light.
Is there something to do, to prevent the curling of certain bags and wallets? My Jeanne wallet is beginning to curl on the flap.
Nope. I hate that curl 🤷🏻♀️
Thanks, yeah it’s sad
Wow your collection is to die for.I love all your bags especially the classic flaps and the vintage Kelly.Thanks for sharing LYXBAGS
Do you have a video on the pay structure at lv? I was thinking of going to work there but I heard from a Chanel employee that would not be a good idea. To go work in stores individually owned

I learn so much from your videos! Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge! 🙏🏻🥰
Feel better soon! 💐❤️
Thank you 💕
I got a canvas and nobody told me how to care for it including the lv store. It’s all corroded on the side that rubs against me 😢
When I receive delivery or purchase from the boutique, the packaging has a care card included.
@@NikkiUchiha perhaps I had it too but got too excited to read instructions 🤣

I recommend to bring it to a local cobbler who will know how to treat/ clean it.
Thanks Michelle.❤️ I always knew it was coated canvas but still confused about their category “small LEATHER goods” when they’re not leather.🤣🤣
Oh yes, generic description for those. The wallets are leather lined…some of them.
It’s because they claim the lining is leather…but I’m not so sure it is…
Moisturizing my bags is what I do to eliminate dryness and cracks. For my mono bumbag I moisturize the crease areas a little more to eliminate cracks.
Great! I love when people follow directions!! 🤣☺️
Would you still wrap the handles of a Speedy B DE bag? Or not bother.
I do ALL my bags because they get gross regardless!
@@dialmstyle thank you!
Good information, thank you! Holding a microphone is distracting, best to have it hidden or clipped to clothing.

At HIDUPZ it's not just a bag; it's an art piece. Each design is crafted with unique inspiration and craftsmanship.
Michelle, this is off subject but, do you have your bag registered in order to have it repaired?
There is no registry…🤷🏻♀️…another myth!?

Thank you Hamid 💕
I think canvas is better than leather for some bags. Canvas just ages way way better
Oh no. Feel Better.
Yeah I’ve never understood the canvas hate. If it lasts and is sturdy…. Who cares? I’m genuinely confused by the hate lol.
I dunno…like everyone just stay in your own lane! 🤣
