For today’s Saturday’s Something Good, I decided to empty out my bag so you can see what I carry around with me! (Irony of this picture: I forgot to add a mini tube of lotion and gum…two items which I constantly forget to throw into my bag ALL OF THE TIME.)
1. Bobby pins – I’m forever changing my hair throughout the day, so it’s nice to have these around. Plus this case makes it easy to keep track of them so they don’t end up at the bottom of my bag!
2. Sunglasses – my poor little eyes need to be protected from the bright sun in DC! When it actually comes out, that is.
3. Lip balm – I put on lip balm every day throughout the day, so it’s nice to be able to easily grab it.
4. Mascara – If I have a bigger bag, I’ll normally carry around a mini make up bag, but for smaller bags, I’ll normally just throw mascara in for quick touch ups.
5. E-reader – I use to carry around a book, but it’s a little nice to carry around an e-reader so I’m not held down by whatever size the book is.
6. Keys – can’t get locked out!
7. Pen – just good to have and makes it a little easier to jot down notes in my planner.
8. Wallet – I also had to expand to a bigger wallet once I graduated so I could carry everything I needed with me. Again, if I have a clutch, then I just grab my id, a metro card, and my credit card.
9. Planner – I think I’ve mentioned this before, but I’m a crazy planner/organizer/list maker, so this is great to carry around whenever I need to jot plans down or add something to my to-do list.
10. Snack – I get hungry pretty often, so I always try to carry a snack along with me just in case!
11. Kleenex – I ALWAYS try to carry along kleenex with me, especially after an occurrence last year where the bathroom I was in had no toilet paper or paper towels, but I luckily remembered there was a pack of kleenex in my bag. A pack of Kleenex is always in my bag, since you never know when you’ll need a tissue to wipe your sunglasses or lend to a friend. Plus, with Kleenex partnering with Isaac Mizrahi, they’re not only easy to carry, but they also look adorable too! If you haven’t checked out their new designs yet, head over to the Kleenex Style Design site now to see their new products! (PS If you haven’t yet, make sure to check out my longer post about Kleenex’s 90th Birthday and their great new styles!)
11 & 12. Headphones & iPhone – Can’t forget my phone and headphones so I can listen to my music and audiobooks wherever I go!
NOTE: MANY THANKS TO KLEENEX FOR SPONSORING TODAY’S POST!
