Check-In Medium

I bought two medium check in luggages from Monos. The first one is about a year old and the second bag was for my husband is about 8 months old.  We have used them on various trips to Asia, Switzerland, Turkey, Australia. I like it for the boxy style  and light weight.  Even when fully packed, I rarely go over the weight limit. The handle is sturdy and adjustable. I had tried Away prior to Monos and found Away’s handle to be too shaky for my liking especially for dragging a 50lb bag. It may just be a defect of that particular bag but I returned it. 

I had a good experience with the Monos Customer Service when the Airline damaged my hardshell  case on my recent Australian trip and I immediately wrote to their Customer Service and included some photos of damages and explaining I need a bag soon for my next trip.  They  send me a new replacement of my original color swiftly as it is covered under their warranty. 

Overall, I would recommend this brand due to the fact that they stand by their warranty and product.  

All their luggage comes in a variety of colors, the most recent offers were yellow (banana pudding) and light lavender (purple icing). They have different types of bags to suit different lifestyles like weekend bags, metro backpacks with changable snap on pouches, totes, crossbody etc. 

I recently added to my collection a Hybrid Carry On as they were doing a sale on Good Friday.  I love the stylish look and the TSA combination locks.  As I have not travel with it, I cannot comment on it’s hardiness. 

I have short, permed and colored hair which tends to be a little dry so I needed  good quality hair care products to help improve my haair health.

I have been using Olaplex for 3 odd years and have found their Bond Maintenance shampoo and conditioner to be especially moisturizing for my colored hair. I also use their 2 steps hair repair treatment (No. 0 and No. 3) and like the improvement to my hair texture.  Occasionally I will use No. 6 as a leave on Smoother conditioning for my ends, it has a creamy texture but does not weigh your hair down. A little goes a long way with this. 

Overall I have found Olaplex to be a good hair care product even though it is pricey but you get what you pay for as they say.  All the Olaplex products I have used did not contain any scent. 

I have tried the hair oil but did not find it any better than other brands so it is not on my list of reorders. 




Firstly, great name!  I found this at our local brewery. Very bubbly and a pure tasting sparkling water. Large can for your bucks!
