Thanks for watching Dolls :) These were just a few tips for packing and I hope you found this video helpful. My checked luggage weighed in 48 lbs (22.2 kg to be exact) so I didn't have to pay extra. I knew I could have put the shoes in my carryon without the boxes, but I didn't want to chance getting indentations on the Antigona ❤Happy Weekend Everyone! Xoxoxo

Hello! Glad you were able to find great items. Something that can be helpful when packing shoes you've worn is to put plastic clear shower caps around them. They're stretchy and conform to most shoes, then you have more flexibility with how they're packed bc you don't have to worry about the dirty bottoms touching everything 😊

Erica Strauss Hi Sweetie! Thanks! I agree, great tip for shoes. Since they were riding at the bottom of my case and separated from my other items, I didn't have to use it :) Thanks for watching Doll ❤❤❤

So so helpful I will be traveling through London and I plan to bring everything back like you I wasn't sure how but I now have some great ideas! Thanks for taking time out of your vacation to show us!

Thanks, Minnie, this was so helpful! I am terrible at packing, so this have given me lots of ideas.

Wow, You did a great job packing all of your stuff, I've never seen anyone pack a suitcase like you. It makes me want to travel somewhere just so I can pack. Great job, I love your videos thanks a bunch

you are an excellent packer! I wish I had your organization skills Minnie! Loved this video! so helpful!!

Omg I totally keep the boxes too as they are so pretty!

Great video! It's so helpful to see how you got everything into your luggage.

Awesome video as usual. I'm about to take another trip back to Europe and liked how you packed everything up, very informative. Thanks so much for sharing.

This is such a great video! I didn't know the LV boxes collapsed. This will definitely help me in the future 😊

Awesome! You're my inspiration. I totally get that you want to bring back all your bags and boxes. I'm the same way.

You are the pack master! I brought my LV TP26 back from Hawaii in a small Vera Bradley travel bag--the LV SA was trying to talk me out of a box for it, but I was like, lady, I'll find a way to get it home! LOL Thanks for sharing :)

I am so happy you got to find all or most of all the goodies you want in London!!!! Great tips on packing for travel!!!! Cheers!!!

I also like to take older clothes that Just in case I might have to leave them behind to make room for my items I'm bringing back. I was so Blown away at how to broke those Luis Vuitton boxes down, I never realized how they so easily folded flat. I agree I love the hard shelled suit cases much better. I noted that Brand name Delsey , I need to invest in a new luggage set, I really like your luggage set. I'm so impressed you didn't have to pay any over rate fees, that's Amazing!

You should have put the new shoes in the new handbags in your hand luggage! that way if you did lose your check in, you'd only lose the boxes xx

I was curious about the customs process in the states. In Canada, we can only bring back 800 dollars of goods duty and tax free. How much can you guys bring back? Thanks!

this was VERY helpful, my Husband and I are planning a trip back to my homeland, London so you gave me great ideas on packing. TFS:)

Very informative video! And u still look pretty even though you look tired in fixing your luggage! Glad that you are happy with your goodies that you bought and u deserve it! 😘

Awesome to know the LV boxes collapse! We're going to London this summer and I'm planning on buying a bag or two and was thinking I'd have to pass on the boxes. When I buy shoes on trips I often take the shoes out of the boxes, fill the boxes with other items (like the tees you bought) in my checked luggage. Then I pack the shoes in their dust bags in my carry on luggage. I've had my luggage delayed (never completely lost...) so I'm paranoid!

Super helpful video, thank you for sharing 😘

very helpful, thanks for sharing. Loved it

So smart of you not to bring the Keepall! The airline made me check my ebene 55 one time on a flight to chicago and of course it was damaged- like a huge DIG into the Canvas. so upsetting! love all your goodies!

Excellent video thank you for sharing with us.

The video was very helpful! Thanks for sharing!

Great video! I try to put all the luxury goodies in my cabin luggage as well, just in case. When I came back from a trip, I placed my Gucci shoes inside my cabin luggage along with my other goodies. I just stuffed the shoe box with my clothes and small items to keep the shape. :)

Hi Minnie, thank you so much for taping this....very helppful. And yes, as another viewer has mentioned, i would have needed to buy 3 other luggages, check those in & with my luck, they would all get lost on the way back home. Anyway, i am not sure if you have covered this in your other videos, i apologize if you have already. Have you ever had to pay any duties at LAX customs, , or any other US airports, on these luxury goods that you're bringing back? Thanks again

I'm really surprised that you didn't place your new shoes inside of the new bags and place the smaller new items inside of the new canvas bag. place the bb inside of the black shoebox on the side since that box is the wider of the 3 and the width of the bb and place it where the bb was between the dirty clothes and the folded stuff and place the tshirts inside of one of the other shoe boxes that way every luxury item would have been in the carry on. The Antigona is sturdy enough to hold a shoe with no damage if in a dust bag. I carry my rock studs in it often. Packing my new items in checked luggage would have gave me anxiety the whole ride home. But after saying all of that, your Tetris skills are A1 😉

Great video and I had no idea the LV boxes were collapsable so thanks so much for the tip! May I ask how you got the VAT tax back on your shoes if they were in your checked luggage, as you need to show the item at the airport? Is it done probably before you check-in?

Omg!!!! Packing is stressful enough, trying to film it too wow ... Job well done xx

Hi, Minnie! Thank you for your videos, I love watching them all. Question regarding packing your goodies in your check in luggage. How will you show the customs officer if they ask to see your items when asking for VAT? I know many terminals have the electronic VAT return, but on one of my return trips back to the states from Paris, I did have to stand in line and get a stamp. Luckily, I was able to put all my goodies into my check in, but would have been worried and stressed if I had to produce my items and they were in my check in luggage. Can you answer this on Minks Monday? Thanks!

tetrix YAY !!! i really enjoyed this vidoe , liked seeing you in action.. i was like ,put that there , yes that there , non the other way haha !

You are not alone with wanting to keep the bags and boxes to what you bought lol I had trouble fitting all the stuff I brought and bought when I was returning from a trip to Chicago, which was also cold weather. Plus I wear a sweater+dress shirt combo everyday in addition to my shoe addiction so that made it extra hard

Hi Minnie, Great video for me today since I'm going to Europe today starting out in Prague and going on a river cruise.The reason I like soft luggage is because it is lighter And I think you can fit more. It's had for me not too take lots of clothes. I am planning on purchasing one or two LV bags and some little accessories and some souvenirs.I hope it all fits.

Hi! I love your videos. How do you store your luxury brand boxes and sacks at home?

Hi there, this is a very informative video, i will have a long layover in paris and was planning to purchase a few items from Louis Vuitton, i really want to keep my boxes and bags etc. My luggage will be checked in but ill have my carryon with me. Do you think the box for speedy 30b will fit in it? Or if i can just carry the LV bag with the box in it as a personal item?

Thanks for sharing dear Minnie, I consider myself very good at packing, but you are a master!! Just wondering where did you pack your clothes? In Robert's luggage?

Thank you for this video Minnie! It was awesome and so helpful even though it had to be tough to film. Question: can you explain in a video the order of VAT counter, customs, checkin as it relates to how you packed in this video?

Could you please write down the style no of your Delsey Paris luggage bag I am unable to find the same style as yours on Delsey Paris website.Tia.

@Minks4All What size is your large luggage? Also, where did you purchase it? I had a hard time finding it online so i'm guessing your specific model might be discontinued. Great video by the way.

Hi Minnie, quick tip 😉: next time put your luxury shoes in your carry-on in their dust bag and put the empty boxes in the check-in luggage. In your case for example, you could have put your new Chanel and Valentino shoes in your stuffed LV bag or even in the little space you had on the other side of the carry-on. Less stress you know !!! 😃

Thanks for the tip Babe, but I didn't want to put them in the carry-on because it would have caused an indentation on the Antigona, but it did cross my mind. If they were both canvas I would have defineitly done it :) It is stressful but after having had to check my carry-on once before due to an overbooked flight, I know that there's always a chance I will have to check it in :( Thanks for watching Doll! Xoxoxo

Is it possible the stores (i.e. Chanel, LV, and the other luxury brands) could have shipped the items to your home vs. you having to risk checking them in?
