    Hello,
    Anyone got a tried and tested way to wash a grubby alvar and a yelina b purse? They are both used every day so are in need of a good wash but I don't want to ruin then.
    Thanking you

    :) Wash in the machine but only on a 30 wash, NOT 40 as it wrinkles the fabric :)

    Hi
    I heard that the Defea has 2 different lengths in the grab handles, is that right. I am currently using my daughter turquoise Defea but the shoulder straps are quite small, how can I tell which colours have the longer handles?
    Thanks x

    :) I've only ever had the longer handles one once & that was on one I purchased from the USA.

    I own a lot of Defeas & all short handles

    I knew you'd know Snap ;)

    Thanks so much, think I'm still going to get one, I'm more a cross body girl like the Gabbie but I could use a bit extra room in summer for water bottles etc, now to decide on colour.......:rotfl:

    Quite a few in TKMaxx yesterday: Latona in different colours; New Raisin in an orange and a brown and cream animal print, Fairfax and I think a Diane? Ranging from £27 to £35.

    Does anyone here have a Kipling baby changing bag, either a Camama or the large backpack? I am thinking about purchasing one or the other and I can't decide between them!

    I have one that I got from ebay. I think it's the "New Baby" style, I got it second hand.
    It's in great condition, and is nice & roomy.
    It being soft is good too, as it's flexible, so handy for stuffing under the pram.
    I had a rigid Cath Kidston one that was hard to pull out or push in to the basket, plus it was poorly made, and started to break!
