I always love when people make "What's in My Bag" posts because it's a fun and cool way to take a little peek into people's lives through what they carry in their purses/backpacks. I just always thought mine would be too boring, but I thought what the heck, I'll bore you anyways :)
I always have carried pretty big bags around because I'm kind of a hoarder. I would carry my whole house with me if I could! I like to be prepared and have everything I feel like I might need when I'm out. I guess that's why my shoulder constantly aches.
First thing is my wallet. Which just has regular wallet things inside of it; cash, credit cards, id, a million movie ticket stubs, things like that.
I always like to have my iPad Mini with me because that alone has tons of possibilities and is always a cure for boredom. When I'm nannying and the kids are napping, it's nice to be able to read or watch a TV show on it.
I also like having a notebook and pen with me at all times. This one I use for blog and my writing notes. I know iPads and phones have note-taking capabilities, but for some reason I love being able to physically write certain things down.
Car keys. Duh.
Hand sanitizer. It's cold and flu season, and being around kids a lot it's super necessary to have clean hands at all times. Plus Joe is constantly asking me for it!
Bobby pins, just in case. I usually have a ponytail holder on me too, just in case my hair isn't cooperating one day.
Sunglasses, which I actually don't wear that often. They always give me headaches and I have yet to find a pair that don't leave those little red marks on my nose.
Burt's Bees and EOS, I absolutely love both and can never pick which I like more, so I carry them both. Especially important now for winter dry lips.
That instant camera is exactly why I mentioned wanting a new one in this post. Mine is just so big and heavy and out dated looking. I love being able to have it on me, but it does add a lot of weight.
And finally my iPhone. This thing is my life, it's pretty pathetic. I always have it on me no matter what and feel naked without it. I hate to be one of those people who is always clinging on to their phone, but I just can't help it! It also works as a pretty good camera if you don't feel like lugging around a dSLR (I usually don't) so that's a plus!
So there you have it! That's pretty much everything I carry around on a daily basis. What about you? What are your necessities to have on you?
I love this! I need a new bag and figure out what to put in it and this has been helpful!

Your notebook is too cute! I'm also a total hoarder, don't worry. :] I think it's only exacerbated by giant purses...
ReplyDeleteI also lug around a laptop and a DSLR instead of my instal (I have the same one as you!) in addition to all that stuff, so....that looks light to me! haha. That notebook is adorable!
ReplyDeleteI actually need to fill up my purse, I cleaned it put and now I'm basically putting everything I need in there again.
ReplyDeleteHaha I do that sometimes too; completely clean out my bag wanting to only carry a couple things then adding everything back in one by one!
DeleteI also feel the need to carry everything with me at all times and have a little notebook, pens, hair ties, bobby pins, band aids AND a book. I guess that's about the same as your ipad. My shoulder often hurts as well.
ReplyDeletethats so funny i have the same hand sanitizer, lip balms pen and bobby pins (probably not the same bobby pins lol) that camera! <3 love it!
