The last thing you want after you dole out hundreds of dollars for an authentic Gucci handbag is to have it looking crummy. Follow these easy tips to keep all of your designer purses and handbags looking new:
~Clean and condition your leather handbags by wiping them with a damp cloth and mild soap, or apply a colorless leather conditioner with a dry cloth. 
~Keep the metal trim on your bag from tarnishing by coating it with clean nail polish.
~Bring the shine back to a patent leather purse by spraying with a little glass cleaner and gently drying and buffing it with cotton cloths or paper towels.
~Replace a broken purse strap by using a heavy chain necklace or a broken belt.
~When storing your bag, gently stuff it with tissue paper or newspaper to retain its shape. Then, place it in a cotton or flannel pillowcase to protect its exterior.
