Hello, my chic friends! Today, we’re diving into the must-have accessories, toys, and little bits and pieces that will keep your luxury handbags, especially your Birkin, looking flawless. If you love keeping your bags in top shape, this one’s for you!
1. Keep Your Bags Filled When Not in Use
One of the best ways to maintain your bag’s shape is by keeping it filled when you’re not using it. A slouchy, misshapen Birkin? No, thank you! Stuff it properly to retain that structured, elegant look.
2. The Magic of Insert Organizers
An insert organizer is a game changer. Not only does it help you keep your items in order, but it also protects the interior from spills, stains, and general wear. I personally love the silk-like organizers from @dgaz I found (not sponsored, just obsessed). They’re soft, flexible, and much better than the stiff ones from Amazon. My Birkin 25 stays neat and pristine with this little gem!
3. To Dust Bag or Not to Dust Bag?
I love displaying my bags, so I don’t always keep them in their dust bags. However, if you’re not cleaning them regularly, dust can be a real enemy. If your bag is sitting for long periods, a dust bag is essential to keep it looking fresh.
4. A Genius Base Tray
This one is a hidden gem! I found a gorgeous base tray that prevents sagging, especially for bigger Birkins like the 30 or 35. It fits perfectly under the bag, lifting it slightly to maintain that perfect shape. If you display your bags in your closet, this is a must-have. You can find my base here. Again, not sponsored—just a fabulous find I had to share!
5. Twillys: A Chic Protector
While my Birkin is in a darker shade, lighter bags (think Cray, Nata, or soft pinks) can easily show dirt and oils from your hands. Twillys not only add a stylish touch but also protect the handles from discoloration over time. If you have a luxury bag, Twillys are a must-have accessory!
6. Regular Cleaning is Key
I personally don’t use any sprays, conditioners, or treatments on my bags. I simply wipe them down with a soft cloth regularly, and they still look as good as new! While some people swear by protective sprays like Apple Guard, I prefer to keep it simple and natural. Find what works for you, but whatever you do—keep it clean!
