The Circle | What's In My Bag?

7/21/2014

Comments

 
In an attempt to get back on this blogging train, I'm linking up (a little late) with The Circle. One of my favorite link-ups. You most definitely should check it out! Let's get to it!

I was excited when I saw these posts going around! One, it meant it was time for The Circle again! Two, I got to dump out and share all the things I carry around with me. Three, it meant I got to clean out my purse. Four, these are fun posts, I've been wanting to do one for awhile, and it's fun being nosy...especially when people let you be! 
I'm not really sure what the contents of my purse says about me. I have mostly all practical things inside it at all times. Although, depending on the situation, event, or which bag I'm carrying at the time, the contents inside definitely change. The bag shown above is the one that I'm carrying around everywhere right now! I got it from JCP.com when I discovered a left over Christmas gift card with money on it. Always a sweet surprise! I wanted a somewhat larger bag (this is definitely the biggest bag I own) and it had to be a crossbody. For me, that is the only way to go. I have three other purses that I will switch out occasionally. I have a coral crossbody from Payless, a fun green/blueish crossbody from Francesca's (which can also be converted into a small clutch), and a Kavu backpack. Which is my greatest companion when hiking or any other time I want a bigger bag. 
What's In My Bag
  1. Wallet and Checkbook -- Although I don't really understand why I need checks since most (if not all) of my bills are paid online, my mom says I should still have them. Wallet is understandable since it contains my baby-faced I.D. card, some cash, expired Red Cross First Aid cards, and more. 
  2. Makeup Refreshers -- Mostly just lip stuff since I'm not one to really reapply all my makeup throughout the day. I'm also in love with the EOS lip balm. It's just seriously some of the best stuff I've ever put on. I also have a tube of Rimmel London Moisture Renew lipstick. And I recently picked up a Baby Lips tube from Maybelline after seeing Meg talk about how much she loved it. It is some great stuff and I think one of my new favorites! 
  3. Random Work Stuff -- A sheet of paper with my work hours on it, an old pay-stub, and list of bills due written on that pay-stub of where all my money went to. 
  4. iPhone -- Never leave home without it. Seriously. It's my mini-computer, lifeline to friends, map and GPS, and camera. (If you notice, it is in this picture. This picture was not taken with my iPhone, reason why picture looks grainy and blurred.)
  5. Keys -- Keys to my car, my house, work, a money bag (that ironically has no money in it), and maybe an old bike lock key from college that should really come off. There are also many notable key ring holders and old bracelets. They are fun and make it easier to fish out my keys when I forget to put them in my front purse pocket instead of the abyss that is the inside of this purse. 
  6. Kindle Paperwhite -- This lovely and convenient library was a gift. I was blown away when I was given my Kindle, because it was something I never expected, yet always wanted. What girl wouldn't want to carry around a WHOLE library shelf and more of books? Well, I guess one who didn't like to read, but that is beside the point. I go back and forth a lot on whether I read from my Kindle or from an actual book in my hands. I love both dearly. Sometimes, there is even my Kindle and a real paperback in my bag. Just call me Rory from Gilmore Girls. I will not get rid of a book. I need options.
  7. Bible -- I've had this Bible for quite awhile now. It's the Bible I carry everywhere and do most of all my studying out of. It's been on multiple trips, in multiple states, and through multiple life events with me. I have a smaller pocket sized ESV bible that I might start carrying around in my smaller bags, but when I'm using my big bag, this is usually with me.
