What do you carry in your everyday handbag/purse?

[amanda1983]

- purse (cards, cash, coins) with keys attached (so I cannot easily misplace either item)
- basic first-aid/hygiene items inc sterile wipes and assorted bandaids
- card holder for excess cards that aren't needed everyday but still need to be easily found
- phone
- iPad
- minimum of 1 (heavy duty) charger + cables for all devices on me or might be needed by friends
- emergency food (minimum one muesli bar + one fruit bar)
- 2 Ventolin inhalers (in different sections of bag) to
- meds (generally just painkillers + tigerbalm)
- water bottle (has cover with carabiner hook + straps so can be carried seperately but lives in bag by default)
- beautiful shiny notepad/sticky notes set (holographic cloud cover, very durable and good assortment of sizes for taking all kinds of notes on-the-go)
- minimum of 4 different types of pens (standard blue or black, erasable, fine-liner, permanent marker)
- very small notebook (unicorn patterned cover, perfect for handing to toddlers to draw in to occupy them whilst waiting in line etc)
- pawpaw cream / unicorn lipgloss
- nail + scissors set ( x 2 atm, oops)
- glasses cleaning cloth
- ear plugs (for flights / times I need to block out noise quickly)
- chewing gum (for flights / to unblock my ears)

^ the first-aid / hygiene / meds all go into zippered sections of a "bag for your handbag" thing I have to organise my stuff. Cables and stuff sit in another section. The big notebook sits in the main section along with the iPad, phone, and purse + keys. Water bottle rests on top. Everything else has a pocket or slot to live in.

Depending on what I'm doing, I might cull some items so I'm carrying less, but generally I prefer to be prepared. I don't want to carry around things that aren't getting used though so I try to clear things out at the end of each day (and make sure I've restocked on bandaids etc that got used).

always:
- phone
- wallet
- keys
- gum
- headphones
- painkillers
- textbook(s)

occasionally:
- laptop
- 3ds
- novel(s)

i tend to travel lightly with my backpack & use it as a shopping bag when i'm out to avoid plastic bag use.

Garbage. Just, actual garbage. Receipts, straw wrappers, gum wrappers. A mountain of garbage I need to dig through to get to my phone, makeup, headphones, wallet, and keys. Sometimes I carry a book or a notebook in my purse. Or a snack. But it's comprised almost entirely out of trash.

 

[Sweetley]

Hm, actually, not so much:

- Wallet
- House keys
- A pack (or two) of tissues
- A small hand mirror
- A hairbrush
- My DS (sometimes)

That's it. My phone and earphones are in the pockets of my jacket if I go out.

[Heisenberg]

I always feel a purse is so cumbersome even when they're little and I tend to forget things really easily. I found a fantastic phone case that doubles as a wallet so I usually just stick everything in my jean pockets. Phone/wallet in one, keys and some eyeliner in another.

 

[honeyblossom]

Honestly if I'm ever missing something the very first place I check is my big bag. It's almost always there, under a mound of receipts from 2015 and a ten different torn out notebook pages of grocery lists, and at least one (1) package of candy.

I have a little backpack I take around school, I have in that a book, whatever I'm reading at that point (rn it's 13 Reasons Why) 2 fidget cubes, a fidget spinner, a little hourglass toy and a tangle in a small pencil case. Tissues, you never know when you'll need them, tic tacs and a water bottle

 

[Chicha]

Most of the time I carry my phone, wallet, keys, chapstick, a pen, and mini tissues. Other times I'll also have a tiny notepad, hand sanitizer, a book, feminine products, my tablet, or 3DS. It really depends on where I'm going.

My wallet/coinbag, iphone charger, a lip product or two, eyelash glue (in case my falses are coming loose), pocket mirror, pill box, small bottle of perfume, and deodorant.. maybe a small bag of makeup, my contacts case & solution, and a pair of eyeglasses if it's likely i'll be staying somewhere else for the night. Oh and feminine sanitary products if it's that time...
