I have and love the Bagsmart version of the diagonal zip case and it's very nice quality. No complaints here. The other bags you have are way to big for me. After watching you not fit your stuff in it...I do think you could slim down the skincare but you should take what you want girl! No shaming here. For me, I always carry on, so I have all my liquids in a tsa clear bag and then everything else I need fits perfectly. When I'm at my destination, wash/cleanse skincare etc., goes on the vanity, shower stuff in the shower and that leaves the bag to have the rest of my skincare and makeup.

Great video I found watching you fold that up very informational because I have trouble getting mine folded up and that made sense on your instructions. When the bag is extended at the bottom, does it still meet personal item carry-on restrictions I didn’t know if when it’s extended, if it would still fit under the seat in front of you?

Thanks for the great review! Got both to take on an upcoming trip to Greece. :) No clue what the snap is for (it's totally random), but the hook you refer to as a key holder is to clip through the zipper pulls so they can't be opened by pickpockets. It was one of the features that sold me on the bag beside the RFID.

How's this bag holding up so far i keep looking at it. Could you do a update on it? Wear and tear?
@ChristieintheCity 7 күн бұрын
This has become one of my favorite bags that I own! I used it almost every day of the rest of winter and into spring and I don't see any wear on the bag. The leather has softened up a little bit, which I love, but it still holds its shape. One thing I really love about it is that it doesn't slide off my shoulder, which a lot of shoulder bags tend to do on me. I usually avoid shoulder bags for that reason! I really can't say enough good things about it. I feel like the color I got (chocolate raisin) is the perfect fall/winter color and I can't wait for fall to come so I can carry it again. 😂 It really is a beautiful bag! I mentioned this in another comment and I can't remember if I mentioned it in the video, but if you sign up for the Madewell free rewards program, you get a coupon around your birthday that's either $10 or $20 off (I can't remember which!) and you can combine that with a sale! So when I bought mine, it was included in the sale Madewell had going and I used my birthday coupon. Just a little tip! :)

Good video. I’d like to know how the Quince suitcase holds up to baggage handling.

Okay I wanted to address that in the video and I think I might have edited it out because I was not speaking to it eloquently lol. I am also the same age as Taylor (1989 babayyy 😂) so I think that the problem for me with TTPD is the general themes of the songs. Like I'm 35 years old and in my current state of life, I cannot relate to what these songs are about lol. I'm not sure how much you read about the ~gossip~ haha, but I also can't get past that so many of these songs are allegedly about Matty Healy, like girl...what is happening?! It's low key embarrassing?! It just seems a little immature for someone who is in her mid-30's. Not wanting to minimize her emotions of course, but...it's a little weird. Swifties please don't come for me. 😭😂 I love Paris Baguette so much! I need to check out the new location in Cary. I don't think I've tried their egg tarts! I will try them when I go. :)

@@ChristieintheCity ha!! Yes I would definitely say try to hold off on his nap so he can fall asleep there. If he still uses a pacifier that might help you get his ears to pop.

Those are my best friends even though my kids are 3/8 I always pack those! Baby sunscreen! There’s lots of UV exposure on planes.

Now that we have a baby, I'm realizing how nice packing cubes are for organization! I like the idea of being able to separate my things (one for clothing, one for underwear/socks/bras, one for swimwear/beachwear, etc) and also have one for my baby's clothes and pajamas. I will report back if I love them! :)

I'm 5'7", so I'm not sure why it was so long on me? So strange!
