    Love your videos! Just got my Monos Carry on for a 2 month trip to Italy and Greece. A few questions; have you used their packing cubes? Like or dislike? Are the packing cubes used in this video the ones you prefer? Why don't you use compression cubes for everything? I know this is a lot, but do you have a video that helps pack for hot and cooler weather? I'll be in Northern Italy in October.

    • @ItsTheKellys
      @ItsTheKellys  ปีที่แล้ว

      I have a whole playlist on packing cubes and have featured theirs twice. Dislike. I don’t love compression cubes in general because they are harder to fit in the luggage by taking all of the air out and are wonky in shape once compressed, and holds less in my opinion.
      I need to do a dual weather packing video. I’ll add it to the list. Everytime I’ve done it, it’s been extreme. When I pack for cooler weather, I tend to pack very minimally.

    I’m looking for the best personal bag option in terms of space as I’m trying to pack for a 3 week International trip in just a carry on + personal bag… I’m currently in between the beis mini weekender, underseat pro & the calpak luka duffle… which one do you think would fit the most amount of stuff? I would love if you could make a video of the best personal item bag comparison if possible 🥹 I know a lot of ppl care for size for frontier/spirit but I’m curious for those of us who don’t fly them and want a spacious personal bag what our best option would be? Thank you in advance ♥️

    • @ItsTheKellys
      @ItsTheKellys  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I will be doing one of those soon actually, it’s just very very hard to rank the best when it really depends on your airline and how you pack.
      Some people pack a personal item to fit more clothes in them, and therefore some sort of duffel/weekender would be good.
      I always pack electronics and plane essentials in mine and so a duffel or weekender is way too big for me, and I prefer backpacks.
      However, most international airlines would never allow something so big, so a small backpack is the smartest to use.
      When I talk about take off or underseat pro, you can use those in addition to your carry on, of course, but only on domestic airlines that allow it. Those would never be allowed as personal items in europe or Asia or anywhere else.
      Let me know where you’re going and the airlines and I can try to help you pick!

      @@ItsTheKellys Ah makes sense.. I’ll be flying Korean air to South Korea. I’ve traveled with them before plenty of times with a kipling large backpack that fits my laptop so I’m not sure how big the difference is dimensions wise but the underseat pro doesn’t seem too big… I don’t own any of the mentioned luggages though so you’d probably know which one is the best size wise!
      Most important key features for me are a trolley sleeve so I can attach comfortably to my carryon and ample space to pack clothing/a pair of shoes - I don’t plan to take my laptop or any other heavy electronic equipment - ideally I’d want to avoid backpack types as I already own several and I don’t like having to dig too deeply for stuff, also I have a bad back and it’s just more of a hassle than ideally I’d want to deal with. In the past I usually took a checked luggage which is why I never minded before but now I’m trying to concise to just personal/carry on and I need the best bang for my buck!

The important part is to make sure everything matches each piece, to give you so many outfit options.

      Because the style of the top doesn't matter except for it to match with all the bottoms. That being said, if you had all voluminous bottoms it would make sense to have straighter cut tops or if you had all voluminous tops then it would make sense for your bottoms to be a straight cut
