TRAVEL WITH GASTON LUGA

Wednesday 29 May 2019


I’ve been using this bag for some time now before I sit down properly and write a review about it. And hellooo it’s been awhile! So maybe if you follow some bloggers on Instagram, you may have seen this brand around circulating and it’s Gaston Luga!

I have a promo code for you if you ever interested to buy : will be somewhere in this post! ;)

Gaston Luga is a Sweden brand where they keep their designs simple and sleek. Best thing about ordering from them? Is that there are always FREE SHIPPING! (pops a bottle of champagne) 

So of course, I've been using this bag for some time now, let me break it down to you!

Things that I look for in a bag
First // It has to be at a weight where I can handle
If the bag is heavy is a no-no for me as I have mild scoliosis and my back cannot handle heavier weights. Sometimes I have travel by walking a distance hence it's best that I don't have to carry that much of weight. Of course I can't be unreasonable as well if i'm carrying a ton of things in my bag as well. 

Second // It must be at least able to fit everything that I want to bring
I won’t be unreasonable to wanna fit my entire closet in the bag, but at least all the necessities that I need to bring. I want a bag that could at least fit reasonable things that it claims to be, so I don't have to carry things with my hands. 

Third // Would love it if it looks simple!
By default, I would opt for a bag that has lesser prints on them because it’s easier to match!

To try out all these three functions, I decided to try out Praper series in black.


//honest review//

As I mentioned before this that I usually travel short distance for a few days and I always prefer to travel with a backpack that could ease my burden carrying things around in all ways. Hence I brought it along with me a few times to try!

First - KL TO JB
If you didn't know - I'm from JB! Sometimes I travel back to Muar too, depending. So usually I would travel from my place to TBS by LRT since it's quite a distance as well.
I would always bring some of my necessities with me whenever I travel, here's a mini list for your reference :
This list may add on but these are the things listed are a must
I mean, who can actually travel without an earphone?! 

Packing wise with my Gaston Luga Praper Bag, The bag fits literally EVERYTHING! I love it. I don't have to hold anything on my hands and my bag is like a deep vortex to keep everything in there. I also like that it has compartments so it's easy to find my things after. However, I would say that it does has a certain weight to it, with the amount of things I bring every single trip.

What makes GL's bag so special is their design. They make their bags look very classy and sleek that could make you look good casual and when you need to be more formal. It can be a bag that you would bring to office and also the kind that you would bring to travel all around the world. :)


What makes me like GL's bag is the way that it's designed to give extra safety measures even by just closing your bag. I'm a very careless person and I definitely need a bag that has extra protection for a blur girl like me. It's very special to me the way that you buckle your bag to close in comparison to the other type of bags where the magnetic button would come off or the zip would spoil. Now come to think of it, my bag has no zips AT ALL. O__O

I will honestly say that initially I was SUPER not used to the fact that it closes that way in comparison to the other bags that I currently have but after a while I got used it hence it was fine.  

I like it that this bag has a small slot at the back to put important things like keys and cards which you need to access more frequently.
Do note that the Praper bag that I got was from the women’s section. XD


Overall, I enjoy this bag so much and will continue to travel with it. Also, have I already mentioned that it's super instaworthy? :D


If you ever need a promo code, I've got your back :D
Quote "edlynheng" upon checkout and you'll be entitled of 15% OFF TOTAL PURCHASE!

I hope you enjoy this review and enjoy your new backpack!
