In the Bag
July 23rd, 2010
I’m always curious to see what women carry around in their purses and am perpetually impressed how guys can survive without them. Last night when I was switching to a smaller bag for night, I decided to snap a picture of what I normally lug around with me on a daily basis.*
*Candy wrappers, lint and receipts have been removed for the quality of the photograph.
- Cupcakes and Cashmere for COACH bag (seen here, here and here): Accommodates a ton of stuff.
- Marni wallet: Classic black patent that takes well to being thrown around.
- Forever 21 necklace: You never know when you’ll need to spiff up an outfit for nighttime.
- Viva La Juicy perfume: Light, floral and fun to apply.
- Nivea lip balm: I’m kind of addicted to this stuff.
- Calendar + rolling ball pen: I’m obsessive about being prompt and keeping track of appointments.
- Make Up Forever concealer: Easy to use and offers great coverage.
- Band-Aids: Always good to have on hand (plus, you’ll be a hero to someone with a new blister).
- M.A.C. Snob (seen here and here): A pretty, nude pink lipstick.
- Quarters: A necessity in L.A.
- Tide To-Go Stick: Essential for anyone who spills as much as I do.
- Glide floss: You never know when you’re going to have something wedged in your teeth.
- Bobby pins: I like adding little braids and securing them with bobby pins.
- Hair elastics: Perfect for switching hair styles midday.
- Jeweled headband (seen here): Makes a normal hairstyle instantly glamorous.
- Keys: I keep them together with a leather key chain I bought years ago.
- Free People sunglasses: These are my current favorites.
- Motorola Droid: All the great features of an iPhone, but with good service.
I love “In The Bag” posts, so much in fact you inspired me to do my own!

I like this post a lot. It is always so interesting when you find out what makes it inside of a womens purse. I love that you have a tide stick….i really need to put one in my purse! I recently tried to switch to a smaller purse full time, honestly i just can’t do it. I need a good purse to hold all the “what if” things…cause you never know what could happen
even your bag is glamorous!

Love that bag and love seeing what’s in your purse! I just got an Android phone and agree that it is like “an iPhone, but with good service.” Hilarious!
I could not help but laugh when I read this post, us girls seem to stuff are whole houses into our purses! I am convinced my mom thinks were going to up and leave one day while were out because she manages to put a weeks worth of stuff in her bag! I found most of these items to be things I carry around. Except mine also includes a camara, camara charger and phone charger.
Check me out I am new and open to linking,
