"The Shit Queen"

Excuse my language in the title, but it goes well with this post. That's what Adam calls me sometimes. He's so sweet, no? ;) He always gives me a hard time, because wherever I go, I always bring so much stuff with me. I've been like that since I was a kid. I love having my stuff with me...books, computer, journal, etc. I mean what if I never make it back home? I need to have all of that stuff with me at all times, right? Just kidding. Kind of.

Anyway, I've seen about 2 million posts like this so I figured it was about time that I do one, too. Because I know y'all are so curious about what I keep in my purse...


I recently downsized to a cross body bag. Mostly because I would spend a ridiculous amount of time digging through my giant boho-chic bags looking for this or that. I would always get frustrated and dump the contents of my purse out at the checkout counter or wherever. It just wasn't a good situation. Smaller bag = problem solved.

The Details:
- 5 lip glosses (don't judge, I like options)
- Glasses, contacts case, tweezers, eye drops, nail clippers, nail file
- Teeth whitener, hairspray, perfume, comb, bag of hair ties & bobby pins
- Phone charger
- Wallet
- Advil
- Pen
- Gum
- Hand sanitizer, oil removal wipes
and most importantly...
- Monogrammed coozie

What kind of stuff do you keep in your bag?

  2. I'm the same way with lippy! I have like 3 chapsticks and 5 lipsticks in my purse at all times. I just can't let them go!

  5. Mine looks organized but when you open that lip gloss/misc. zipper bag inside a drug store explodes! Lots of lip gloss in the SAME shade.

    I keep my wallet, my planner, my drug store zip bag, and keys in my wallet. Maybe a thing of Advil and gum - and odds n' ends (ear phones for my phone etc).

    I'm a hot mess but I try to clean it out once a week if possible!

  6. No lie, I have my monogrammed koozie in my bag AT ALL TIMES! Whenever I switch to a little bag if we are going out and I don't want to lug my big one around, I ALWAYS put my koozie in and I ALWAYS use it! Actually, your bag contents is almost identical to mine..

    I LOVE LOVE LOVE your bag!!!! so adorable!! and your wallet is so cute too!!! I'm on the hunt for a new purse myself... a big one preferably so I can carry all my crap and more! Even though I've downgraded to a small one, I still find a way to carry an even BIGGER bag in my car with all the goods that don't fit in the small one LOL

  8. LOVE the bag, and I am inspired to go clean mine out now. ;) I recently downsized for the EXACT same reason haha. Now I just carry my purse, and a big lap top bag with my computer, journals, kindle, and accounting text book in my car so it LOOKS like I am not being crazy carrying my life around in my purse, but really, i just moved it to another bag ;)

  9. Love this! I'm the same way. I carry massive amounts of crap everywhere I go. It's a little ridiculous to be honest.

  11. I thought I was the only one who carries so much crap!! Yeah, I'm not the only one! I think my bag is seriously over 10 pounds. Like a girl scout always prepared! :)

  12. So I just became new to the blog world, and I stumbled across your blog, which I have been secretly stalking for about a week or so. So I love the idea of this post and have also seen it in other blogs. I think the idea is so fun since I too have a love for organizing. I think I need to downsize my purse as well! The bigger the bag the more junk I seem to think I need to jam inside. Cute purse by the way!

  17. Love this post! I can't go anywhere without hand sanitizer. I won't eat anything without using it first and this girl likes to eat. I wouldn't want to be caught somewhere that served french fries without some hand sanitizer nearby.

  20. Hahaha! I loved the din't judge comment on the many lipgloss options. Its cool to have all your important stuff with you. Isn't it cool when someone asks you if you have a bandaid and you can actually say yes??
