Love you AWE-Stars!
Congrats, madame! Options to consider: leather straps may dry out vs. small chain straps that DOES NOT TURN with a lobster clasp. The wallet may get a secure look if it was worn up and down. As you are an artist, how about a small abstract design covering your pink, white, and whatever color(s) of your choice.
Congrats on choosing a great first product. Not a crowded niche at all. Do it in green and I will be all over it! All the best with it.
I agree & yes GREEN
Congratulations Monica💐. I love to see women winning and living their dreams unapologetically ❤🎉 The wallet is classy and very practical, and fun colors will be great for color lovers
I love everything about this!!! Let’s continue to celebrate each other and be creative. Keep going…
Amen to celebrating each other!
Congratulations on 50k again and on your new product.🎉🎉🎉 Truly excited for you.
My thoughts:
1. Pebbled leather to mask any scratches etc with constant use whilst travelling
2. Love the idea of white stitching on black but would you consider the signature as ABM in pink? I find pink more calming than red(danger) and pink is ur fave color as well😊. Beffiting for all your signatures
😊
3. Love the idea someone had of it been worn vertically so items dont fall out. Excellent 💡 . So the d-rings for the optional wristlet/crossbody attachement kinda has to be on the opposite end to the card slots.
4. Would you consider the signature to the bottom right like artists do with their wall art? Debossed maybe?
5. Appreciate the gunmetal hardware. Really enjoy that details in handbags a lot
I hope this helps. Well done on such a unique idea. Travel could really be your niche🤗
I was going to suggest something to convert to a crossbody...That would be fire
I will be adding the strap options. Just finalizing the design. Thank you for the suggestion and thank you for watching.
Oh my goodness Monica! Congratulations my sista! You are only just beginning. As for suggestions:
1. I love the look as it is; however I do love the idea of the crossbody idea, adding an optional chain.
2. Maybe come up with a separate or additional option in matt or pebble black/ with your signature favorite color pink for your signature
3. A dark brown is also a good choice for neutral versatility as well, the pink signature will still look grand.
I agree with one other suggestion for the location of the signature. Though I am not necessarily a fan of the white trim, it would not be a show stopper for me. I love classic all black. Thank you so much for sharing your creativity with us.
These are great suggestions! Thank you
Congrats🎉🎉🎉 love love your red signature ,ummm black pens to with your red signature on it be very pretty to ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
🎉 congratulations on your 1st product. Nice one. The only critic will be the signature. I think it will look better and classy in gold or sylver. As for the wallet you can just slide a belt at the back and it will be secure ❤
Yes, I will be changing the logo! Thank you!!!
Congrats on the travel wallet! Yes add strap & yes we need a Monica bag.🎉🎉🎉
Love the Sergio Hudson blazer.
Congratulations 🎉🍾 The wallet is fabulous - love the leather choice and the practicality. If it is also RFID protected, for me that would take it over the top.
If you chose to do it in Blue, Red and Cognac or Chocolate Brown as well I would have one for most color schemes.
I LOVE IT! Color variations to come!
Congratulations on your new line, Moni💕🎉🥂! Camel, brown leather will be a nice neutral that goes with everything. More blessings 🙏🏽!
Congratulations! Im always in the hunt for a wallet with all those things! Love it! Can't wait to purchase one.
Maybe have an all zipped in option? Strap as well. You go Ms. Lady 🎉👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽✨💕
Great idea!! Thank you so much! Your support means a lot.
Suggestions: no contrast top stitching as it may take away from the sleek design, have a mechanism that will ensure the passport is secure if you do a wristlet. Just my two cents.
Thank you so much for the suggestions. I appreciate it.
🎉 Congrats on launching your travel wallet. It looks luxe! ❤
Thank you!!
Congrats on your new adventure!! I was wondering if you could do a video on shape wear. Please and Thank you!!
Congratulations on launching your new product!!!
I know you didn't mention this Color but I would love this travel wallet in a brown pebble leather. ❤
That’s coming for sure.
Congratulations! It's great and I love all the compartments. Wishing you continued success in all present and future endeavors. Upward and onward! Well done!!☺💐❤🖤💚
I truly appreciate it! Thank you.
Love the design! I can totally see me using this for traveling, doing errands, or for going out for drinks.😃 A wristlet and a chain would be so awesome! Green, orange, blue (similar to your Kelly) are the colors that came to mind. 🤗 Will you ship internationally?
I love it and yes, by the grace of God we will ship everywhere.
Congratulations on designing and developing your product. We are here for it and can’t wait for it to drop! Also that Valentino Raffia tote is gorgeous!
Green!
Congrats on your new product!! Love it!! Yes, green and blues would be good. Also, as you grow, what about in pebbled leather??? You got this, and you are doing it!!!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾💜💜💜💜💜
Congratulations! It's such a useful product!
Honestly, my goal is really to create products that work for every day life regardless. So can’t wait to create more.
Monica please provide the details for your hairdresser! Congrats on your first product. It's just the beginning for you and all of your All Stars!
Will do!! I totally forgot to do that. Adding to the Description box now and her is her info as well. u.salon
Congratulations! I would prefer metal zippers and pulls.With a zipper pull that makes it special. Also, I think a magnetic closure would be better for travel.
Wow. So happy for you. Fabulous wallet.
Thank you Barbara
Excellent! I would totally buy it. Well done.
Thank you!!
Had to comment before I finish the vid to let you know I am in 'awe' of your travel wallet! My eyes lit up when you said white stitching. Congrats!
Love that!! THANK YOI
CONGRATS GIRLIE, YOU DESERVE THIS!! Soooo Good, BLESSINGS upon Many more Blessings coming your way!!❤❤❤
If you add a narrow flap the full length of the wallet iso the small snap closure, the stap can be connected through a slot to create wallet on chain. When adding white stitching try long stitches using thick thread. Yes, logo color could change with each colorway or just use foil emboss( not a fan of this 😊) Wishing you continued success.
I love this!! Congratulations!! 🎉🎉🎉
I just seen that your changing the color to white that be pretty to ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Yes, going to do white!
🎉🎉🎉FINALLY!!🎉🎉🎉 Congratulations on 50K, Monica!!💞💓
Yay! Thank you! It's been a long time coming!
Yess! So well deserved! 🥰We love your channel!🤩💞
Congratulations on your new endever
Love the travel case organiser really love congrats wishing you great success with it . Great vid loved all your new in items ❤️❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥😍😍😍
Congratulations Monica im sincerely happy for you and looking forward to supporting your upcoming product line i believe a black and pink will be on my list😊🎉❤🎉🎉💐😍
Congratulations to you on such a beautiful and functional leather piece. I can't wait to get one. I'm so excited for you.
Thank you so much! I appreciate you.
Monica, I am so happy that you are taking this step in your life. Congrats. I love the travel wallet. The only change I think would make it even better is to make your signature -AWED by Monica - white, vs. red. Other than that, it's beautiful!
Thank you so much! I actually have a new logo for my line. I will share soon. It is not only perfect for the wallet but for everything I will be designing moving forward. Thank you for the suggestion and thank you for watching.
Congratulations I'm so happy for you. Hard work prayer and trusting God it truly pays off.
I love it. Congratulations. Waiting for other colors. You can do options. Without a strap. With the strap. Wristlet
Congratulations 🎊 on your new product line! I love it... continue pushing forward Moni😊
Thank you! Will do!
Congratulations, my friend! I'm so excited for you! Please get the sample to production so we can all enjoy! I can't wait to purchase and support the ABM Brand!
Suggestion: black travel case with red stitching, with the back outside pocket in the same red as your signature. If strap, make optional and/or detachable. I would prefer without a strap because I would put it in my travel tote rather than crossbody. Congrats again, Monica! ❤❤❤
Congratulations Monica...hope you will ship to Canada ❤❤❤❤
Got to send to my fellow Canadians!
Congratulations! I can't wait to get my hands on this. I love the black, but I'm a red girl so we need it in red as well. I was sold from the time I saw the slot for a pen, I'm always rummaging through my bag for a pen when I travel (that slot it everything)!
I love it! Congrats. It’s beautiful and practical for everyday use including travel.
It really is!
Yay, love your travel wallet!
I would love it as is! Simple, elegant, timeless and practical!
I’m ready to pre-order!❤🎉
Yay! Thank you! I strongly believe simple is always the most beautiful and easy to use. Thank you for the suggestion and thank you for watching.
Monica I can’t wait for this to come to fruition to support you! You deserve this fashionista and it’s about time, looking forward to more pieces from you!!
I love white but I agree all white with traveling is not best but the white top stitch is cute. And a possible crossbody would be a plus!!
Thank you so much!! Edits coming!
I love the wallet, I think a leather wristlet. Color block for me❤
Love the wristlet idea! So much more to come!
Yay Moni!! You’ve reached 50k!! Congratulations! I would totally buy your black travel wallet outlined in white stitching! I also love the idea of it coming with a detachable strap!❤
Thank you love! I'm finalizing the details next week and it will definitely come with a detachable strap! Thank you so much for your continuous support! I appreciate you.
Your content is getting better and better ... THANK YOU!
I appreciate that!
Love the wallet! I suggest ur logo in gold or different color. Love wallet on a chain option or hook to attach inside purse or tote. I would like a secure clasp or zip for passport etc
Thank you. I come with the strap for sure and I actually have a new logo for my collection. I will be sharing that soon. Thank you for your suggestions and I love the idea of a hook to attach to a purse or tote. Thank you for watching.
Love your eyeglass frames and the color of them. What eyeglass company are they from? I think you've worn them in another video, but I don't remember which one it was.
Also, the travel wallet looks great!!! And the leather is gorgeous. It's good to have the part to hold a pen as most of mine don't have that feature. It will be great when the product hits the market. I hope it comes out in a variety of colors like possibly burgundy, cranberry red, green, khaki tan, royal blue, gray, etc. Colors that stand out from the traditional travel wallets. And maybe with the stitching in a different color from the leather.
As for arriving to airports early, I'm also one for arriving early as I need to be relaxed, clear headed, and in a Zen mode and especially before getting on long flights, like the 18-hour non-stop ones or ones where there's a flight change totaling over 20 hours of flight time. And when flying from home, out of LAX, I need a Panda Express meal before getting on the long-haul overseas flights. LOL! And in Narita, I need some sushi before either going to or coming from Japan or S.E. Asia. LOL!
Greetings from Los Angeles
Congratulations!
I am so proud of you. Keep your head directed to the sky. You give some of us hope.
Keep the excellent content coming. In my Moni voice: “I just love, love!”❤
Thank you! Will do!
Congratulations on 50k! I love the wallet and am also ready to pre-order. Sugguestions: I would love to see the signature in a different colour, specifically black and slots for another/multiple passports.
I love the idea of another passport. I can visualize it yet without making it bulking, this is something important to consider. Thank you love the 50k and the wallet have been a long time coming. I am grateful
Congratulations 🎊 👏🏿 ❤
Congratulations ❤
What a stellar week for you! Congrats on the development of your own luxury product. I'm sure it will be the first of many! Also kudos on hitting 50k on YT! I'm so so happy and proud for you! Looking forward to seeing what comes next. Maybe the matching bag to go with that travel wallet?❤
Congratulations 🎉🎈🎊, Monica! I’m so happy for you and very proud of you for moving forward and achieving your goal. The travel wallet is so beautiful and functional. Yes, we would so appreciate color blocking and white stitching. Since you are an artist add a keychain with your artwork on it. Congratulations 🎊 on achieving 50k followers. 🙌🙏🏾
Thank you beautiful. Great suggestion. The sky really is the limit in terms in design.Thank you for the suggestion and thank you for watching.
1. Matte finish and pebbled finish
2. Brand name embossed; no colour
3. Stitching in other colours, preferably neutrals
4. Zip hardware in gold, silver or matte
Congrats on your new baby😊
Great suggestions. I did consider embossing the logo until yesterday afternoon. And the matte hardware I will be using for sure. Thank you so much for this and thanks for watching.
Congratulations 🎊 I love it and all ure ideas are awesome, keep shining my sister, blessings always 💖
Thank you so much 🤗
Congratulations on everything!🎉
Thank you so much 😀
Congratulations 🎊 🎉 Monica on your achievement to 50k subbies😁🤗. I'm proud of you, and here are your virtual flowers 💐 🌷 🌺.
I really like the color infusion of the threading with the travel wallet - That will make it stand out more and/or give its uniqueness (touch). Color blocking would be cool too. Also eventually creating wallets using specific color tones and/or material-hardware that you see on trending purses/bags, jewelry, clothing, food, or nail polish etc, but don't typically see on a wallet. The chain/belt on that specific travel wallet, I'm on the fence about. Because of the document slide section - it doesn't appear tight enough where items wont slip out if carrying the wallet like a purse. I give this solicited opinion because for some reason, to me, wallets tend to look boring, old, unfashionable or not chic enough. And I believe with your fashion sense, you can give it that classy-elegance, stylish, chic, fun but youthful-adult edge 😊 💛 🌟.
Thank you so much!! Your continuous support. I truly appreciate you. A lot of great suggestions. I was going to do away with the white top stitch but I do believe that is an opportunity to really stand out. I have used the wallet for about 2 weeks now and I can attest that the document slide section is pretty secure. Nothing has fallen out and everything holds well. And I totally agree about creating something fun, chic and stylish. I believe my design definitely embodies all the above. The top stitch can be the one feature that really singles it out. I am also changing the logo and color. I will reveal that soon. Stay tuned and thank you for watching.
@@awedbymonicaWow your plans sounds so amazing. That white top stitch sounds perfect 👌, and as Im trying to visiualize it, Chef kiss 🤌😘. The logo design is probably the hardest part to accomplish just because it's a brand signature, and there are so many fonts etc. I do like the name, and the font style you choose. I am biased about the red color because I'm not a fan of red - I don't own anything in red. So my suggestion about the color red should not be considered at all. I can't wait to see the updated sample. I would say DONT FEAR. Your talent (gift) has made room for you. Enjoy the process, take your time, be intentional - put in the work, and the quality will speak for itself. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE when people are in their element and walking in their devine purpose. You are really motivating me. So thank you for sharing with us.
@@fine9ja your kind words means so much. And one thing I can tell you for sure, especially as a fellow Nigerian you would love the name. And I will be using a white stitch for the logo and not red. I shared this on Instagram as well and a friend of mine sent me an article on how it is hard for some people to read read on black so I want to make sure the wallet speaks to everyone.
@@awedbymonica Hmmmmm.... YESZZZZZZ do the research. I'm over here dancing like my mom would do when she got excited lol. Perfect! It is true depending on color, font etc., it's hard for some to read/see. I'm not on Instagram, but I have checked out your page before with the limited time Instagram gives those who are not signed up, and ask to enroll lol. I will check out your page shortly. 😊
Congratulations 🎉 I love it!!
Thank you!!
More grease to the elbow 💪. ❤❤❤. Could be won vertical , with a detachable strap, that can also be won crossbody. Great job 👏 💖
Thanks for the tips! I never consider wearing it vertically! I will play around with design to see if that is possible without having items fall out. Thanks love and happy Saturday. Have the best weekend
Since you have a pen slot, why suggest the slot under the i.d a small flip pad holder.
Hmmm. Something to think about. Especially if it doesn't interfere with the function and design of the wallet. Thank you for the suggestion and thank you for watching.
Congratulations is it RFID protected?
Congrats🎉 what about RFID? For security 😊
Not there yet, but thank you love.
I love it. The idea of a crossbody is great. What is the price point for this?
Not sure yet
RFID blocking, if possible.
