Over the weekend, there was rather the rainstorm as I headed out for a pedicure. I snatched up my Givenchy Antigona, as that was the bag I’ve been utilizing the previous few days, as well as rapidly headed into the car. I had to park about 50 feet from the nail salon, so I needed to make a run for it in the rain with my bag. I walked into the salon, chosen my polish, as well as grabbed my seat. I sat my bag down, looked at it as well as felt that queasy feeling instantly–the rain left blue marks around my light pink Givenchy Antigona.
I wiped the bag down as well as presumed because it is a semi-glazed goatskin, it ought to do fine in the rain; it’s not like I dropped it in a puddle. I kept staring at the areas around my bag, hoping they would fade. I started to worry; what will I do if they’re permanent? Is my bag ruined? The great news: about 30 minutes later, my bag was back to normal.
As you’d imagine, I own lots of bags that I’ve had in the rain or snow with me, as well as I’ve never had this occur before. I treat my bags truly well, however I don’t want to be somebody that is so gentle with my bags that I spend much more time believing about exactly how to keep them beautiful than I spend just utilizing them.
I was lucky the rain didn’t leave a long-term mark on my bag, however I was amazed about the marks showed up in the very first place. The pictures I took are from my iPhone, so they aren’t great, however after I freaked out about the marks, I understood I ought to take a picture. The extremely strange thing about my pink Antigona is when the rain hit the bag, a splotchy, light blue color started to show through, as well as it spread like a illness all over. I’m guessing the blue color problem was about the original dye utilized on the bag; obviously, there isn’t a pale pink goat running around available (although that would be cute), however I’ve still never seen anything like it. My bag recuperated fine, however I was shocked, as well as it got me thinking: have any type of of you had a bag get ruined by rain or snow?
