What's in my purse?

Posted by Laura at Wednesday, November 07, 2012
So, a part one of two I suppose - I'm going to do a quick post on what is in my bag.


I know, you're so ecstatic! So very ecstatic.

Left: It's my purse - from Nine West, picked up at a Goodwill. (Looked a lot better than my beat up spider tote bag I had been using for a purse at that point... Especially needed something nicer for going around NYC.) On top of said purse is my key fob with all my fobs for stores. They've migrated to their own ring entirely and clip onto the inside of one of those rings. Works out quite well, actually!

Center column: Ibuprofen (cause, seriously, who doesn't carry some sort of advil/tylenol/motrin/aleve/etc?), Kleenex, hand/body lotion (a sample from a best western...hey, it works!), an embroidered owl compact mirror from Fossil, Sally Girl lip gloss (given to me by the makeup artist for my friend's wedding), Burt's Bees lip balm, anxiety pills, thumb drive, and and two asthma inhalers.

Right column: Coupon organizer that I don't use regularly (coupons have such short expiration dates - tear, tear), my wallet, which is busting... A duplicate copy of a prescription for an allergy medication, a hot curler holding pin (nabbed from the b&b during the wedding to macguyver some stuff), a single bobby pin, a pair of tweezers, another thumb drive, three pens and a purple sharpie.

Oh, and that bottle at the top right corner? Ground cinnamon.

Yeaaah..... I have been taking to and from work because I keep meaning to print out a label to put on it, but I have been swamped with paperwork and catch-up from Hurricane Sandy. So, the bottle goes to work and home with me. It's a pretty adorable "vintage" glass bottle, with the hole shaker insert in it as well, but it doesn't fit in super snugly, so I have to be really careful I don't knock it over and dump cinnamon all over my purse... Thankfully, it's super high quality cinnamon. Hence the "decanting" and fancy bottle.

Not sure what kind of story that tells, other than "hobo"... But hopefully it was um...ecstatic-making for you all. <3

That's extremely exciting. I especially love the cinnamon, we have some similarities. I too carry a single bobby pin in my purse, because you know that's going to be somehow useful.
