Chanel Leathers 101

OK PEOPLE, it is TIME to get back to the basics! Join me as we do an in-depth review of the four most common Chanel leathers: lambskin, calfskin, patent and caviar! I end the video with my SOLE recommendation on leather care. Enjoy! Questions always welcome!

Fantastic video! Thanks for the tip about the leather cleaner! I wish each brand would sell their own cleaners.

[@DecorativeLettuce]

Mary Pennisi, right?! I get so annoyed at how cagey designer brands are when you ask them how to clean/fix - they never want to give answers. Oh well, at least we have each other!! ❤️

Hello. Great video! 👍 I ❤️Chanel and I really enjoyed watching your Chanel leather video! I only own the Chanel m/l double flap bag and zip around coin purse in lambskin leather but I’m definitely interested in adding the Chanel slg and/or Chanel gst in either the calfskin or the caviar leather. Your Chanel bags are absolutely STUNNING! 😍 Thank you so much for sharing. New subbie. 🤗✨😀

[@DecorativeLettuce]

Lux Collection85, hi hi!!! Thank you for subscribing and reaching out! Your bags are perfect - the m/l is easily one of my favorite bags. SLGs are addicting lol - and the GST (or any one of its progeny) is amazing - would definitely be a great counterpart to your smaller bag. Keep me posted!!! ❤️❤️❤️

Ms. J. Lynn Orenstein awww yay! Nice to have you here - thanks for the kind words - trying to disseminate the info I’ve got. Always feel free to chime in in the comments to help others!

Love hearing about the different leathers even as an avid collector. I use the exact same cream on my bags and nothing else. Good to know it’s a product you us too! On another note I hope you get some spring weather soon. This is the coolest winter I remember in FL, but we aren’t complaining. Great video👍🏻❤️😍

[@DecorativeLettuce]

Hey hey! So glad to hear that you use it, too! It's the best. DEF the only thing that I trust to not leave a residue or a stain -- and I KNOW, my mom is down in FLA and said the same thing! It's been FREEZING up here but I think this week the turnaround is coming!!! XOXO have the best rest of the weekend!

[@DecorativeLettuce]

THANK YOU!!!! XOXO

[@lylamalzahn4717]

As always, I love love love your videos. Thank you. My holy grail is the medium, lambskin classic flap but after watching your video I think I will get the caviar leather. I want to be able to use it and not baby it. Thanks my friend.

[@DecorativeLettuce]

LYLA MALZAHN, hello!!!!! Happy Sunday!!! YES I love caviar over lamb - lamb is SO pretty but makes me more nervous. Let me know when your get your HG! Excited for you!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@lvluxdelight]

Wow: I found this video to be so informative and helpful. New subscriber. I need to invest in more Chanel items. My channel focuses on Louis Vuitton/Inspiration. I'm hoping we can be friends on here? I love meeting others with similar taste and appreciation for luxury items! This was a very unique idea to do for Chanel bags and greatly appreciated! Great video. I hope you are enjoying your day love! Xoxo ❤

[@DecorativeLettuce]

lvluxdelight, hey you! Thanks for stopping by - I will subscribe to your channel; I LOVE all handbags, and totally look forward to seeing your stuff!! And yes of COURSE we can be friends!! XO!

[@janeb.5275]

Another great video! Thank you again. I am still confuse whether to keep or not the bag in its dust bag if you have a walk-in closet

[@DecorativeLettuce]

Jane B. Aaaaa this is such a good timing comment: just moved back into my condo with a rehabbed closet and will be keeping all bags out! Closet tour filming soon!

[@TheMmmgonzo]

Great video! Did you get anything from 18s in the metallic green? I thought about you when I saw them 💚💚

[@DecorativeLettuce]

OH MY GOD so THAT was probably the hardest thing that I have ever passed up - I wanted to, but made a deal with my husband that I was only getting 2 bags this year! WORST DECISION EVER. It's gorgeous. Did you?????

[@nadiabennett4652]

Heya, hope you're well.. I was wondering if you had the business affinity ? And if you could do a comparison video between that and different sized classics.. I'm hoping to buy one soon but I just wanted to get an idea of sizing and what fits. Thanks xx

[@DecorativeLettuce]

Nadia Bennett, hey lady!! I am well and hope the same for you - I do not unfortunately have the Business Affinity - was SO close to getting one last time I was in Vegas and opted for a reissue instead!! If I am fortunate enough to buy one, I’ll do a review - if you get one, send me a message and let me know how you like it!!! ❤️❤️

[@nadiabennett4652]

Decorative Lettuce nice to hear from you, reissue is lovely so I can see why you chose that, I'm just in love with the affinity but I think I need to buy it preloved because I want it in red lol I'll try keep you posted !xx

[@DecorativeLettuce]

Nadia Bennett, oh man red would be amazing!!! Keep me in the loop!! XO!

[@MyfavoritesWithMaggie]

Great video! Can you comment on durability of aged calfskin that’s used on reissue? Can you take it out during rain? I like caviar since I can use it without worrying about water spots.

[@DecorativeLettuce]

I agree! And YES - I only have it in a square WOC, but it's fantastic - probably on par with regular caviar -- I think the striations in the leather help; you wouldn't notice an imperfection even if one did develop. Hope this helps!! XO!
