I’m considering buying this as a teacher bag for our homeschool co-op days when I need to carry All The Things! Your review was so helpful, thank you!! 😊
Yay!! 🎉
I have been absolutely obsessing over this bag!! I'm a nurse, and I need ALL my things. haha.
Same! It def holds all the things 😍😍
I ordered the black gemini and it just showed up today. I'm a planner girl and reader - I'm obsessed! I can finally fit my bujo, my current read, my moterm personal rings, my pens/markers as well as my everyday wallet, phone, keys, etc ❤
Its seriously the perfect bag 😍😍 so glad you love it!
The little detachable tassle is your key chain, and, you get one with every bag. I have two... beauty and incredible function. Will be buying another soon! 😊💖
Thank you for this! Absolutely love this bag!
I've been eyballing this Gemini mini backpack for over a year. Finally buying one because I have two work trips coming up and will be traveling Allegiant. I need it to be able to fit as a personal item. So excited! Now to decide between Cream or Almond....
Yes!! It was the best bag for travelling! Id go almond 👀😍
Hi! Can you speak to the durability? The only thing keeping me from purchasing is that I’m skeptical the “vegan leather” will stand the test of time. Thanks so much ❤
Ive used it for work, travel, took it on a flight.. its held up really well!
This is my concern as well, but I love all the pockets on this , but wish there was a leather option, still contemplating on it, but I'm sure I'll end up getting it sooner than later.
I have this bag but without the luggage sleeve. I too am a nurse and a planner girl, and have to have all my things. Of course, I don't use half of the stuff I carry to work! 🤣 I love this bag so much and took it on our flight to Chicago. Fits under the seat for sure. So fun fact, I thought hmmm... Maybe if I get the mini version(with the luggage sleeve)I can carry less stuff to work. Well guess what, all my stuff from the original fit in the mini. Lol! Get this bag. ❤️❤️❤️
Omg I love this! I prob dont use half the things I bring either but I like to have it with me 😂 I cant believe everything still fit in the mini!! Thats good to know because Ive had several ask me how the size compares. Do you mind if I share you comment over on IG?
@@KatieKPlans sure! All the "baglady" nurses need to know. 😀
I love that they made the inside cute
The inside is so smooth and pretty 😍 blue is my fave color!
Im on my second back after I spilled some juice in my first one. Tried to clean it out as much as I could but I ended up getting a second one. Love it
Thank you so much for the thorough review! Been eyeing one of their smaller totes (the Carina) and this is very helpful.
Hey there! I just happened to come across your video and it helped me get a bigger picture of what the Gemini can help me out with! I was curious to know if the bag lost its shape over time? I'm hoping that even with having it stuffed full and using ot every that it'll still sit on its own when empty..I have a lot of stuff to and I don't want something that I have to lean again after a month or two. Thank you for everything!
Honestly no! And I just took mine on a trip/flight and its held its shape!
Mine will be here tomorrow! I can't wait!
Oooooh what color??
Omg I just bought a new work bag from Amazon and now you have me wanting this one LOL... Ugh so pretty!!!
Its so worth it. I use it everyday for work! Great for travel too. At least amazon has free returns 👀😂
@@KatieKPlans 😂😂😂
@@KatieKPlans UPDATE: I bought this bag and returned my Amazon one 😂
@@prettybirdie17 ahhh!! So excited you love it 🥰🥰
Katie, thank you for doing on the body! I'm 5'3 and I keep hesitating to purchase because I feel like it might be too big to carry throughout the hospital for meetings. What do you think?
The strap is adjustable so that might help but I still LOVE and use this bag. They also have a mini version you might look in to ❤️
Katie, how tall are you for reference?
Is it so big it wouldn’t be considered a personal item for airlines? Does it fit under an airline seat?
Actually per White Elm it DOES fit under an airline seat 😊
How heavy would you say it is after filling it? Is it suitable for someone 5’1 and petite?
Im 5'7 and stuffed it full for a conference and it didnt feel heavy to me.
I ordered the same bag ❤ and I am in love . I think the hardest thing is deciding what not to put in it lol 😂
😍😍😍
Hi! Thanks for the great review. I'm curious how comfortable the straps are? I'm considering using it for a diaper and work bag but wonder if the straps can support everything I carry. Thanks!
I stuff it full with work stuff and the wider strap still keeps it very comfortable ✨
Woohoo! Just pre ordered this bag in taupe (my favorite color) for nursing school. Have been searching for the perfect laptop bag forevvvver so I don't have to have 3 purses (current situation) but the only ones I could find were either too big, a regular backpack, or too small. Thanks so much for the review!
Oh you are gonna love this! Its the perfect size esp for Nursing School!! I wish I had it back then 🥰🥰
I have been wanting this bag! I carry so much I’m still not sure if it will work.
It holds so much in my opinion. Def check out measurements before purchasing 🥰
Mine will be here tomorrow. I got that color but in the mini version. I don't need the luggage compartment.
Yay! So excited. Its such a pretty color 😍 Id love to see it compared to an original.
Long shot but I’m looking for a bag to take on our hospital trips and I need something that will hold up over time. We do several long hospital trips a year and they take a beating. Do these hold up? My last three over the last three years have been very disappointing. Thank you.
Ive had mine for a year and its done well for what Ive used it for.
Do u consider the incside of the bag to be more of a teal or tiffany blue i cant tell from the pics and videos
Id say more tiffany blue 😍
Oh bummer!! Id def reach out to them and let them know.
I just bought mine I can not wait to get it 😍
Its my fave bag! Hope you love it 🥰
Thanks 😊
I’ve had my eye on one of these and searching for reviews, I found yours!!! Don’t know how I missed this video to begin with.
Anyway, do you know how well a big happy planner will fit? I use a big teacher planner for work.
Yay! So glad it was helpful! An 8.5x11 will fit just fine in the large bag shown here 😍
@@KatieKPlans so not in a mini?
Love mine have three different colors
😍😍
Is it heavy with all your stuff in there?
The bag itself doesnt feel heavy to me compared to my other leather backpacks.. when stuffed full its not light but not heavy like Ive got bag full of textbooks 😂
How is this bag holding up a year later
Like new!
I am torn between this one and the Gemini mini, which is all that is keeping myself from ordering
Ive never tried the Mini. Honestly the original is such a good size, not overly big, that I dont think Id go try a mini. It holds everything I need! 😉
Does this fit under an airplane seat?
Yes! I flew on Southwest and American Airlines with it and it fit perfect!
@@KatieKPlans wonderful! Thank you! Do you think it’s too big for an everyday bag? I think I’m wanting too much. I want an every day bag but I also want to fit all the things when I travel. 😂 It’s so hard to choose!
@@jennifertiffany363 If everyday bag you mean like a work bag or diaper bag its perfect for that too! I personally wouldnt use it as like my purse.
Do you still like the bag?
💯
I like this bag but not a fan of the lining color.
I can understand that!
The different colored bags have different colored linings, some are more neutral 😄
Too bad their care is awful. This arrived looking like bottom bin garbage. For $195 this arrived looking old and misshapen. No inserts at all so the bottom section and corners are wrinkled in. The handles stick out when using it as a back pack. A person shouldn’t have to spend time and resources hoping the handles, and overall construct will straighten out. F.
