Okay, so I have a lot in my bag. Nothing wrong with that. However, that being said, if I have a lot in my bag I should at least make sure everything in there is needed and not just affording me to carry around extra weight all day on my shoulder. What do you carry in your bag? My must have, always need list is below. xo RCN
1. Balenciaga wallet - my version is five years old, but you can shop now with an updated version with "giant" hardware
2. Make Lemonade sunglass pouch from Charming Charlie. All of their pouches are adorable, check out the current collection. Not pictured are the sunglasses I am most often wearing at the moment, Prada tortoise cateye sunglasses
3. Hair ties - I am always afraid I will not have one on me and I often put my hair up after a while when I am out and about. These Nike ones I use a lot, especially when headed to the gym.
4. Sun Bum SPF 30 coconut lip balm - All Sun Bum products are great. I also use the sunscreen and body lotion (found in my beach bag). You can shop the product at F1rst Surf Supply in Sobe, Target and Urban Outfitters
5. Neutrogena sport face SPF 70+ - I use many sun screens for different parts of my body and different occasions, but it is imperative I carry sunscreen for my face everywhere I go. This lotion not only bodes well in the market, but it fits perfectly in my bag and makes me feel confident it is doing the job in protecting my poor little red freckled nose.
6. Chanel lipstick - I wear lipstick pretty much whenever I am not going all natural. Chanel is my go to, shop all colors at Nordstrom. The Rouge Allure Velvet 44 La Diva is pictured here.
7. Trident gum - I know...gum isn't great for the teeth, but I do chew it so when I do I make sure to chew sugarless! I keep it in my purse just in case, it's a habit of mine.
8. Keys - on a super cute gold metal keychain from J. Crew. Kate Spade is winning the keychain game this season in my opinion. How cute is this passion fruit drink keychain? It's on sale too!
9. Yurbud earphones - I often listen to music from my iphone which requires earbuds when I am in public. These little guys never fall out of my ears. When I am running on a treadmill and my whole body is moving around and I am sweating A LOT, they stay fit. You can even pick out a fun color and the gel caps come with two sizes so you can fit your ear perfectly.
10. Rifle Paper Co. notepad and pen - It is a necessity to have paper and pen on hand to jot down any instantaneous thoughts and ideas. I use apple notes for my grocery list, but there is something about a pen and paper that allows me to be more free, scribble, and sketch when something comes to mind.
