I think it was me who got the bag correct. It's a GUCCI lady lock. I have a vintage one that's not quite as old as yours. It would originally have a key very similar to Hermes bags. Mine still has the key.
The handbag clinic is based here in Newcastle upon Tyne. Maybe you could get a video out of it? A behind the scenes look at the restoration process?
Ahh thank you! 🙌❤️
@@MrCarrington you're welcome 💗
Great find. I'm so jealous. 😄
Ohh I'd love to see a video of the handbag restoration process...maybe you could then loan it to a fashion museum along woth those yukky Gucci shoes...I think there is a fashion museum in one of the major London museums...
See if you can find a shoulder strap for the bag, so you can wear it over your shoulder
Oh Iwan,those espadrilles! Apart from the obvious staining i think the worse part of them is the WEDGE😂😂😂😂😂
They remind me of something my Mam wore in the 80's 😂
Yes I agree! They look like a woman’s shoe! Poor soul with feet that large for a lady!!!😮
Could you paint the espadrilles? A deep mustard to match the current stains? A light olive green?
Put some shoe horns in them. Would they go in the washing machine, put some insoles in them
Sorry, the shoes are awful.
Don’t think I am nuts but I had a very old pair of flats that looked like they went through a shredder, I didn’t want to throw them away as I had them for so long so I thought and finally turned them into planters. I put succulents in them and put them on my porch by the door. I get so many compliments about them as they are adorable. If all else fails you can have a pair of designer planters on your roof top deck.
I watched Sort Your Life Out this morning. My eyes leaked an awful lot! What a totally gorgeous family. The makeover was perfect. My heart went out to Dilly as well, that must have been a tough one for her. She was really strong. Tell her we think she is amazing! Off to put some shaving foam on my carpet now! (P.S. The Gucci bag is 😍)
I was going to comment the same - what a beautiful episode but so, so sad x Well done to the SYLO Team - those gorgeous little girls x
Those Gucci espadrilles made me laugh 😂 you are such a good sport and can laugh when things are a bit blergh - it was almost like you were willing them in front of camera to look better than they were! What a tonic 😂 can’t wait to see the home updates Mr C 🏠
Hiya you can buy proper leather soap called saddle soap. It's especially made to clean leather.
Also provide a moisturizer to it when cleaned.
You can also buy cleaner for canvas shoes x
I own horses and use saddle soap on my saddle but its not really soap as such it more to keep leather supple wouldnt use it on a hand bag as it can be bit sticky ❤
I actually LIKE the Gucci espadrilles - if you stuff them with tissue paper and use a steamer to reshape them. Use a spray on fabric cleaner to lighten the color. Amazon has stick-on heel pads that really work. Apply to the inside of where your heel would rub. They are padded, soft and easily reduce the fit to a good half-size. They would look utterly ‘cool’ on you as clearly vintage treasures. Think wabi-sabi, Mr. C.! 👍🙋♀️🇺🇸🥰‼️
Before you baby wipe the bag, I would wipe it with a damp cloth of commercial vinegar as that will kill the mould I saw in the close up. I live in a tropical climate and this is common practice for cleaning leather, before then feeding the leather. Mould spores can travel to other parts of your house so wear gloves when handling the bag before treatment.
The two little girls on last night's SYLO 😍😍😍absolutely adorable. The dad's doing a fabulous job of raising them as a single parent. They melted my heart🤗...I now want a secret room😆 Have you thought of using saddle soap to clean the leather handbag? I use it for our chesterfield sofa and it does a great job. Oh dear, the espadrilles🤭 mix half a cup of water with a tablespoon of bicarbonate of soda. Using an old toothbrush or equivalent, work the mixture into the canvas and leave for an hour. With a damp cloth give them a gentle wipe over then use a sports shoe whitener.☺THEN...sell them!!🤣
The printed shirt is very Bruno Mars versace style! It is quite luxurious looking perfect for a balmy holiday evening. ❤
I'm so glad you and the sort your life out crew could help the family last night. Felt so sorry for the daddy and those beautiful girls losing their mummy. Silent tears rolled down my cheek for them. It was one of the best episodes yet.
To help prevent food sticking to cast iron pans we used to prime them with a good half inch of salt on the bottom. Heat the pan on the hob for 15 minutes and then let the salt cool completely before discarding the salt. Worked a treat before we had non stick pans. Also don’t wash, just wipe out with a cloth.
This weeks Sort Your Life out was wonderful 🎉What a lovely family! Those children are adorable ❤so deserving of your help.
Love the colour of the pans. Those Ugg boots were a great buy.
How lovely was the Dad and the children in Sort Your Life Out last night. You all did such a great job. I’m sorry Dilly has been through all that. I just wanted to give her a great big hug.
Oh my giddy aunt! Those shoes! 😶
The shoes!🙈
😂😂😂😂Nearly fell over 🏃♂️ to the comments. Those Esperdrills. 😮 there's Vintage & there's Vintaged .
Hey Iwan! I believe that it was me that found the correct name of your 60’s Gucci bag. And it is called a frame style.
Thank you 🙏
@@MrCarrington I found it on a site called Poshmart. It sold for 330 dollars. I also found one on a Swedish auction site that sold for 200€
It was a really lovely episode you are right. Sad but happy at the same time because they are getting a bit of support that was greatly needed. Absolutely the kind of folks that deserve all the help 😊😊😊
Please don’t use baby wipes Mr C, it really dries out the leather, especially on vintage bags. You can get a pack of leather wipes for a couple of pounds which will clean and moisturise the leather. Le Creuset pans don’t need seasoning. Xx🥰💗
Those shoes need to be in the museum 😂
😂
Hi Iwan great finds omg though espadrilles they have seen better days the joys of shopping online unfortunately everything always look great in pictures I had a few fails myself, love the gucci bag & frying pans, can't wait to c the home update tomorrow have a lovely weekend take care lots of love 💞💞💞
I would dye those Gucci shoes navy, put insoles in them fir a better fit. If you want to put the work into them, they might make good knocking around or beach shoes.
Not in a weird way but a sheet chat, shacket, handbag kind of way ❤
Please show us how you clean those beautiful LeCreuset pans. And definitely show those off in the new kitchen!
I love the Gucci bag 💖 you are so good at finding bargain in second hand shops. You motivated me to browse around the Chelsea and South Kensington charity shops this week end ! Love from us 🐼🐻 Xxx
A bag like that is so classic it doesn’t date ❤️
The espadrilles 😂 … Mount them vertically and staggered inside a glassless vintage frame and tuck in a couple of succulents … for a constant reminder and £35 worth of giggles!
Omg that is genius px
Hiya, you can get leather wipes in the supermarket and I find them really handy to clean bags and leather shoes although I think they are for furniture. If not saddle soap xx
Love your frying pan, but have to agree about those awful shoes😂.
I watched the new Sort your Life out, the family were lovely and those girls were just too cute, so glad ye were able to help them❤🇮🇪
So excited to see you on the BBC iPlayer Homepage today, Mr C! Congrats!!
Iwan l watched sort your life out and you all did an absolutely amazing job, what a sad story, lovely family, those Gucci shoes you could turn them into hanging planters, put trailing plants in them, and my favourite is the Ugg boots, looking forward to Sunday, tfs x Julie
That type of bag is a timeless piece !! 👏👏👏👏 Even just to carry an iPhone , small iPad/ kindle , plus some needed everyday items would go great for any occasion . ❤😊❤😊
Hi last minute Larry 🤣🤣🤣🤣❤ what a great Haul you have a fantastic eye ,,love it , ooh cannot wait for the Renovation vlog ,,wonderful ❤
You’re such a lovely person, gentle soul like a good friend. The handbag needs some saddle soap to clean it and renovating cream with colour it will look like new then what a good find. Why did you buy the shoes with a wedge too ? No wonder you laughed bless you. Love the shirt.great pans and Ugg boots are my favourite ❤
Oh! Its such a pity that I can't watch your tv show here in Spain. I've even tried changing my VPN to the UK, but that didn't work either. That handbag was a really great find. Can't wait to see your home renovation tomorrow. When I renovated my kitchen and the small toilet room, it took two months as there was all the light switches and sockets to rearrange. I could only microwave cook in the living room for more than one month. It seemed a nightmare, but when it's done you think that it was worth it. Max 🐈, Molly 🐈⬛and Lucy 😼 didn't get stressed as I thought they would. They got out of the way because of the noise, but loved to inspect every corner when the workers left at the end of the day. When I put on laminated floor years ago the moved all the furniture back and forth, I didn't have to worry about moving big furniture around the house.
Fabulous Sort Your Life Out last night amazing so deserving family...can't wait for Sunday vlog with your house updates 😃😃😃
I love that expression 'just so wrong'it reminds meof very good friend who says it and always makes me laugh as she is always so right when she says it.
Hi lawn all you need is some saddle soap it will bring it up like new
Clean the Guccis and use them for beach shoes
Love the frying pans, look forward to watching Sunday's blog,❤
I loved that episode, looking forward to watching the rest of the series 👏👍
Love the Gucci bag. You have some amazing finds🎉
I have these frying pans. You can prove them stove top. Heat them up till they are really hot. Turn the heat off and pour in a teaspoon of vegetable oil. Use a piece of kitchen roll to wipe the oil all over the black interior then leave to cool. I do mine every few times I wash it up. Fabulous pans lovely even high heat potential. 😘
Thanks I’ll try that 👍
Gosh, Mr C, I bet you’ll be glad to finish all that building work! I rather liked the Versace-style shirt…thought the colours were lovely 😍💚🧡
Hi Mr Carrington. What a fun video to watch I love the frying pans and the Ugg boots were such a good buy. Those espadrilles reminded me of shoes out of the Victorian times 😂 all you need is a boater hat and blazer and punting a boat along the river 😂😂you really made me laugh. I think selling them on is the best thing you can do with them 😂. Thank you so much for this video really brightened up my day. 💕. I love Sort Your Life Out and I was in tears warching it what a live it family those little girls were adorable 🥰. Loved the tip about rubbing orange along the windowsills in the Wendy house I had never heard of that. I learn so much and get so much inspiration from you and the others on the programme. I felt for Dilly must have been hard for her but she is amazing please send her our love. ❤️. Looking forward to Sundays video. Have a lovely day 😊
Very glad to see SYLO back on TV with all the gang. Such an emotional episode, and my home area too. Hope you can make the espadrilles work for you. ❤
Favourite find - definitely the UGG boots :)
My daughter came in saying mum how do you get crayon of the carpet just as you we're cleaning with mens aftershave..I said there you go so thanks for the tip. Love the show and your brill on it...
Oh but oh the shoes I love your shopping but I don’t know what you were thinking with you on the laughter !
Loved new series and episode! Looking forward to watching the series ❤ New haul and good bargains 😊
Really love the handbag, I'm a real bag lady, love to kitties xx
My favourite was the handbag and cast iron pans you got a good bargain
I always look forward to your posts
Great to see you and the SYLO team back on our screens it was a lovely family that you helped I did cry quite a bit but what lovely girls….. I bet you’re proper fed up with your roof leaking again … I never think to look at the handbags when I go charity shopping I think I will have a look now 😀
Love your finds you do so well 😘
Hi Mr. C! Ok my guess on the purse was wrong. I thought it was vintage Ferragamo. Pretty cool that there is a purse place you can take it to for repair & restoration. That would be interesting to see what the final outcome would be. Thanks for sharing with us as always. Much love from Fort Worth, Texas! 😊👜⛅
Great haul! As a fellow shacket lover, I always love to see what you've found. I hope you didn't pay a lot for those loafers, but they might look better after you wear them. They almost look as though they were washed by the way they are wrinkled.
All kinds of goodies! Re the Le Creuset pans, they look like they might be preseasoned. I would reach out to them and ask. Also, if you wouldn't mind, I would love to see the dishwasher tab trick for cleaning the pans. Looking forward to Sunday's update...
Hey there! I'd like to know the cleaning tip for getting the burnt on grease off the bottom of the pans. I don't have a dishwasher. I clean everything by hand. I'm in the U.S. I enjoy your videos!
I watched Sort your life out, and it was brilliant. I like the new schedule Tuesdays 9pm, suits me down to a T👏🏽 .
Those Gucci shoes! You're too funny 😁. The frying pans look good. A bit of baking soda, lemon juice, and white vinegar should sort them out. I like the Uggs.
Thanks for sharing another's great haul. Take it easy x
Great video Mr c loved the ugg boots x
Top tip for discount codes, if you put +1 or +2 etc at the end of the first part of a Gmail address, a lot of websites recognise it as a new address but Gmail treats it as your original one!
Hi Mr C!What a lovely mid-week surprise🤩it's only Wednesday but I'm so ready for the weekend lol can't wait to see Sunday's video. Have a great rest of the week😃
Love the shacket, especially that colour!
Morning Iwan great haul apart from the espadrilles they look awful, my favourite was the blue frying pans would love one but don't know if it would work on my induction hob, some induction pans won't work, looking forward to the work you are getting done cannot wait for Sunday take care love to pumpkin and Mittens x
Love your new fines. The pocketbook can be leather cleaned with leather cleaner. A Magic Easier will clean your shoes. Your can resale the shoes and made a profit.
Love the bag ❤ You could tell it was quality vintage.
I love a good vintage bag. My Longchamp was $5.00 at a thrift shop here in the US. It currently sells in good condition for $120.00, mine is in excellent condition so I am over the moon happy! Same trip I got a vintage Coach leather belt for 29 cents!! They did not know what they had obviously. I feel sorry for your Gucci wedges, poor old things.
The Uggs are fantastic- look virtually new!
I like the hunt for rare antiques and designer goods and the possible flip or resell. Fun! Enjoy.
Those shoes 🫣 gutted for you but great that you can laugh about it. Pans are fab and so looking forward to the home updates ☺️
Hi on your bag ,you can by leather soap , if you do try leather soap please do a small test piece first ok . Just be careful with wipes , if they contain an oil it may discolour the bag . Test first . Loving your volgs by the way . Hugs to pumpkin and Mittens . I have three cats Leo , Tyson boys and my little girl Misty say hi to Pumpkin and Mittens .😊
Thanks for the vide Mr C😍. Love it when you vlog from the loft, and really look forward to viewing your reno update👌🏽🙂
😂😂 those shoes made me laugh out loud, had no idea SYLO was back on excellent news i love that program 👍🏻
Try using oxyclean on the shoes to clean the stains then you could dye them grey or indigo.
Lynne here from Canada
Great find with the Gucci bag it’s timeless. I’d def get the leather conditioned. Great haul
What a lovely bag. I really hope all the work gets finished soon. Can’t wait to see the transformation 😊
Those Le Creuset pans are amazing!
GREAT FINDS.
Messin about in boats!
Yey that was 1 of (the 4) designers I guessed 😃 The silk shirt as soon as u held it up I thought it looked very Versace-esque. I never really got sucked into the whole "UGG" saga tbh i tried the boots when 1st released yonks ago & didn't like the back of them cos they'd scrunch up when i walked & wasnt gonna risk the blisters 😆 BUT (20yrs later 😂) just got a cpl pairs of the shorter ones & they're lush! Yours deffo look like outdoor ones, love the design on the back. x
Watched sort your life out this week, lovely family really felt for them bless..what were you thinking with the esperdrills😂we all have those moments..great Gucci bag fabulous find,should come up very nice once cleaned..love the charity hauls..❤
Last night I watches sort your life out and ended up crying,such a great program love it, very jealous of those pans a real Barg , can’t wait for your next vlog, I love watching home makeovers xx
Hi Iwan, sounds like you've got a lot on and can't wait to see it all. My cat Lux missed watching pumpkin and mittens this week, she really likes to get involved with your videos 😂 x
I would dye them black - which is what I did with a pair of old brown shoes and it truly made them look good .
Enjoyed sort your life out this week the hairspray tip was great for me having 7 grandchildren around love your vlogs never miss any thank you xx
Oh goodness! Those espadrilles by Gucci are an absolute scream. When you described clomping about in them I really laughed. Stop the late night scrolling! But please keep the interesting videos coming. Love them ❤️
For leather cleaning, I use Saddle Soap and then a leather dressing which
is what I used to use on all of my tack. Does a beautiful job. Is Millers still
in London? They would have it....Lexol brand here in the States. Just a
thought.
Hi Iwan, another great vlog. My favourite from your haul was the cast iron pans. Loved their colour. Cannot wait to see your living room/kitchen makeover x
Love the show, watched with my lunch today. Such a beautiful family and you did them all proud. Gucci loafers …..you could use them to grow your herbs in or succulents. Fancy book ends ?? Statement piece on a canvas . You could put scent boosters in them and put them in a wardrobe ? I reckon the plant idea is my fave. Line with a plastic bag then put a small plant pt in some gravel a soil and a nice succulent.😊 love all your finds . ❤
Sounds like you do have a lot going on! Watched sort your life out great show I love it and the 2 little girls were so cute. Look forward to seeing the renovations.🏠
❤pans love blue 💙 thanks for sharing
How old are the gucci wedges? From the 30's? I think if you envisaged a summer suit somehow, they'd work... failing that, donate to the V&A?
Saddlesoap for leather goods cleaning and conditioning 😊
Great haul Iwan love the pans looking forward to seeing the transformation on Sunday 👍
RE: cast iron pan...just cover the wood handle with aluminum foil or try to unscrew the handle ( turn the metal loop at the end) Good Luck!....Love these hauls Mr Carrington:)))
Hi Iwan.......my friend got some vintage converse basketball trainers off Vinted......same thing....but she got a cheap tube of whitening toothpaste & using a childs soft toothbrush she gently brought them back to life & she soaked laces in either Oxy or Vanish cant remember but they looked as good as new by time shed finished. Give it a go 🤞🏼. They would look very classy with a pair of cream linen trousers, shirt & a straw hat on your next visit to Monaco.......bet they cost abit back in the day! Good luck xx
If you do decide to keep the espadrilles 😬: To clean white canvas shoes that are turning yellow: use a solution of baking soda and hydrogen peroxide. 1 tablespoon of baking soda, 1/2 tablespoon each of hydrogen peroxide & water. Brush paste on canvas. Wait until dry to the touch. Wipe off dried paste & rinse in cool water. Air dry indoors. Failing that, get 'em back on Vinted pronto 😁
Those Gucci shoes could do with being returned to the seller or as you suggested selling on. Loved the Ugg boots though❤. Pats for the cats. I hope all the work is finished soon and you can enjoy the refurb. Xxx
Well on the positive all but one of the items were an absolute win👌. But 🤣🤣🤣 those shoes. The best bit were the soles. Avoid wearing them Iwan because you don't want to look an R.sole🤣🤣🤣👞👞🤣 sorry cudnt resist that one! 🤣Can't wait to watch sort your life outfits a fantastic programme. Lots of love xxx
