MY FAVORITE PURCHASES OF 2024 (AND ONE BIG REGRET)

[@RakeedahsCloset]

I’m in love with your hug bag. I will be borrowing it in the spring

[@totesgene]

I'll make a trade?

[@Davids_Closet]

Love your hair! Also great video, I had a feeling Miss Dior was the regret! Still a beautiful bag though!

[@totesgene]

Ah, thanks. I am growing it out.

[@SuzWhat]

All your favorites are stellar ⭐️💫🌟✨ You make good points about the Dior tote, especially not having a shoulder strap option. Thanks for sharing! Peace and love..Suz What ☮️💛

[@totesgene]

Thank you, Suz. Happy Holidays. Happy New year.

[@BrianS1169]

Wow! I did NOT see that coming! I thought for sure it was going to be the Coach Empire! Absolutely love the Dior sunnies. Your hair is fabulous, BTW!

[@totesgene]

@@BrianS1169 thank you so much. Yes, I’m sad about the Book Tote.

[@SaabGuy-mq3cw]

I’m so glad you’re back! I love the bags you got this year, you did good! Can’t wait to see what 2025 brings! Like you, I’m done paying these exorbitant prices for bags. I only made a couple this year that were exorbitant for what they are. I love the look of the Dior book tote but I only had mine for a few weeks, it’s impossible to keep it pristine looking.

[@dcjimr1]

The Dior tote? I'm shocked! But I totally understand...sometimes we forget the practicalities involved with a bag (or anything else). Everything you bought is awesome and I'm glad you're enjoying them.

[@totesgene]

I'm shocked too. It's so beautiful. Such a shame.

[@sarahgraves7860]

Excellent vlog! I bought the Guibert bag after seeing your review and love it.

[@totesgene]

Oh my gosh, what did you buy?

[@TravelingGayPanda]

I got it wrong! I was SO sure your biggest regret would be the Coach Empire! I remember seeing your video and making me side-eye Coach! Lol.

[@Atreides217]

Great video. Can't believe your big regret but actually i can after you're explanation!

[@totesgene]

I am gutted, actually. It is so beautiful, but the practicality wasn't there.

[@kaylheecarroll3186]

Beautiful bags ❤😊

[@theluxehousewife]

Love it all! The Ricky is so beautiful I totally understand why you love it! I’d looove to see a what’s in my bag! I always love seeing those in people’s most loved bags! Happy Holidays to you! ❤

[@totesgene]

Thank you. I'll do that. I just subscribed to you, so will check out your videos.

[@totesgene]

Girl, why haven't you posted any videos in 6 years?

[@theluxehousewife]

@ hahahaha I had two babies and just felt like no one wanted to hear what I had to say so I just didn’t 😂😂

[@totesgene]

@@theluxehousewife I hope you come back. It takes time to build an audience.

[@Diane574]

😊 Sometimes I stuff bags with terry hand towels. Thank for the video, Gene!! ♥️

[@totesgene]

Hahaha. Yes, me too.

[@Diane574]

Love your bags but especially the hug bag! Gorgeous!!

[@totesgene]

Thank you so much.

[@danielintheantipodes6741]

The lack of a shoulder strap would destroy the Book Tote for me. I have a similar bag which I never use for the same reason. Loving all the others. I don't know how anyone can cope with the larger Keepalls! Thank you for the video!

[@totesgene]

Yes, the larger Keepalls are insane in size, lol. The 45 is perfect.

[@jojothee]

The Ferragamo!!!! You look fabulous, too

[@totesgene]

@@jojothee thank you. It’s a beauty.

[@Restless318]

just got Coach Emprire 40 in honey had order it 5 times it was cancel but got it still want rouge 39 in maple Happy holiday Gene

[@totesgene]

The honey is a beautiful color, and the Rogue is Coach's best bag, IMO.

[@artsandbarts360]

Yes rogues are the best💯🙌🏻

[@pholtlux_749]

The book tote is beautiful….but I have heard the same thing from others. It’s not very functional and so heavy! Heavy is a no go for me, so I completely understand. Take a picture, sell it, and gaze at it longingly every once in a while as the one that got away. Lol

[@totesgene]

Yeah, that's hard to swallow sometimes. It's going to go on its way.
