That's a lovely bag!
Isn't it great? I got it from Banana Republic during one of their "40% off" promotions and it's probably the lowest cost-per-wear item I have in my entire possession, since I've carried it practically every day since and have taken it to everywhere. Including to London and Paris a couple of months ago. It's a workhorse bag and I don't want it to die! Plus, you can wear taupe with brown OR black, and I'm too lazy to switch out bags in the morning to coordinate with different outfits. Bah.
I guess I can just keep carrying it close to my body and not let anybody see the back of it.
Charles Barksley?
My next pet is supposed to be a Barkley. I've been told it's a bad name for a cat so maybe a fish.
Vonnie, you might also try saddle soap - but, as Maria suggested, try before doing the entire bag.
Regardless, I'd use Apple Leather Care products.
Thank you! That's very helpful. Although I admit, the first thought that crossed my mind was "wow, I didn't know Steve Jobs had branched out into cleaning products."
I tried one of those drug-store cleaning sponge things, and it caused a big patch of discoloration in the bottom of the bag, so check, on testing it first before using!
Good luck! The back of the bag is not that bad, so you should be able to make it less noticeable.
I think someone at my uni's employee assistance program reads Hyperbole and and Half. In the newsletter, in an article about budgeting, they write
"Without a budget, you risk spending all the money and not saving enough"
I think this is very funny, but has the wrong subject matter.
It would be hysterical to pick a day, everyone pick a topic, watermark the photos appropriately and just go out and hit every Apple store within reach.
I have a friend with a pair of rats named Klaus and Werner.
I have an interview tomorrow morning at a staffing firm. WHOOT!
ftr, 2 direct applications today and 5 recruiters responded to with emails and resumes. plus updating and expanding monster and linked-in.
Now I have 2 pages of instructions to go through before this interview. I have to register at their site, send them a more detailed resume (no missing months), take an online skills test in MS Word & Excel, Call 3-4 business references and make sure I have their contact info correct and they are on-board with being listed, and then I need to iron a suit.
