Lauren had the cute idea to link up & do a post on what's in my purse? Lets face it, us girls would be lost without our purses! I used to carry a suitcase sized purse when Cam was out of diapers but as soon as Reese came along & we bounced back to a diaper bag, I went back to a smaller purse. When she was really little & we traveled with everything but the kitchen sink, I threw a wristlet into the diaper bag since I couldn't face the idea of dealing with another bag to haul on top of the breast pump & cooler bag.
One: My mother-in-law got me this colorful Coach purse for Christmas this year & it's the perfect size for me. Two: It also has a lot of handy compartments that help me stay organized which I love. Three: I never leave home without my wallet or my cute envelopes that keep me on Dave Ramsey's cash system that I blogged about in this post. Four: When you live in the Sunshine State, you cannot go outside without sporting some dark shades!
Five: I've had so many visits to the dentist after work recently & apparently I've forgotten to take my toothbrush & toothpaste out. Six: Hand cream. When I was a teenager, I read that your hands age the fastest, so on top of wearing sunscreen, I always make sure to moisturize, moisturize, moisturize! Seven: Lip balm/color/gloss. I always feel like the fastest way to look more polished is by swiping some color on your lips. Eight: Sadly, I am an ibuprofen junkie so I have three spots for my pills! Yikes... call the rehab center & have me committed! My back is constantly sore & I have sinus issues so I never leave home without it. Lauren bought me the cute pill box pictured in the bottom right for my birthday!
Nine: If I don't clock in, I don't get paid! And no, I don't really have sunglasses & a mustache on in my picture! Ten: Fresh breath is an absolute must for me! Eleven: My skin is super oily so I'm always armed with both my oil absorbing sheets (which are quite possibly up there in the top ten best things invented) & my pressed powder. Twelve: And finally, who could survive without a cell phone these days? I use the htc Sensation.. It seems I'm one of the few who doesn't have an iPhone since Mike is not at all a fan of Apple products. He's the techie in our family & frankly, as long as it works, it's user friendly & fast, I'm fine with whatever. So, there's a peek into my purse & all the must-haves I use on a daily basis. Thanks for stopping by!!
You're quick! Glad you joined in on the fun! :) I always forget to get those oil absorber sheets - love them!
ReplyDeleteWhere are the crumbs...old receipts...garbage??? Is that just my purse?? I think I have a problem because I've lost my license twice in the past few months. Need to get more organized like this. You and those oil-absorbing sheets!!!! That's totally Allison! P.S. What is Mike's beef with Apple products!?!
ReplyDeleteLesli, I tried to take a picture of the gum bits at the bottom of my purse but it just wouldn't focus & I was in a hurry! Trust me, they're there!
ReplyDeleteWhen you're a grease-ball like me, you gotta have the oil absorbing sheets! As far as Mike's beef with Apple products, he feels they "lock you in & they're proprietary to a fault.." Oh & he also feels that the iPhone screen is too small!
Apple makes great products, I just don't like how once you're into the Apple family you're kind of stuck. "Well, I have an iPhone so now I use iTunes, so I may as well get an Apple TV and a Macbook. Oh look I need a new charger, gotta go spend $20 on a proprietary charger." I think the iPhone 4 was the last iPhone that was better than the competition, and now Apple is playing catch up to the Android platform. RIP Steve Jobs.
