FMM: What’s in Your Bag?

Happy Monday, Everyone! I haven’t participated in a FMM in weeks, and I’m excited for this one. My weekend was so fun – I hosted a Father’s Day BBQ at my house, and we surprised my dad with an iPad! He was shocked and thrilled, and couldn’t wait to plug it in and play with it.🙂

FMM: What’s in Your Bag?

This week’s topic asks us to snap a photo of our bag and tell what’s inside of it. How fun is that?! I love seeing what other people carry around in their bags.

I love this B. Makowsky bag because it has so many different compartments for all my little items. It keeps me organized, even with a lot of stuff.

The breakdown:

Bath & Body Works Shea Cashmere & Silk Hand Cream – love this lotion, especially because I have really dry skin.

Twirl by Kate Spade – I enjoy this ultra-feminine scent, especially when I go out at night. I have the large size on my vanity, too.  I also have Daisy by Marc Jacobs, as Kenlie mentioned in her post, and I love that one because it’s a nice, light daytime scent.

Extra gum – I must have fresh breath!

Ralph Lauren sunglasses –  I love their big, rounded cat’s eye/Jackie O shape and the way they protect my eyes, which are so sensitive to the sunlight. I bought these sunglasses about 4 years ago at Macy’s, which is a record for me – I usually lose my sunglasses each year.  I think I love these so much that I couldn’t bear to lose them.

Kindle – I love having my books available, especially if I have to wait at the doctor’s office, like I do later today.

Sephora  compact – for touching up my lipstick

Lipstick/glosses – Ok, I know that no one needs that many in their bag at once, but I like having options.  I don’t use a makeup bag because the B. Makowsky bag has a large compartment that it all fits in.  In case you’re wondering, those are lipsticks from MakeUp Geek ( in Delightful, Lovely, Innocent), two Buxom glosses (in Leslie and Dolly) – I love their “tingly” feel and the way they look over the lipsticks, two Sephora glosses (in Sangria and Bronze Beauty) – I can’t recommend these highly enough; they’re the best lip glosses!, Buxom Big & Healthy Lip Stick (in San Francisco) – I like this product because it’s got the wearability of a lipstick, but it has a bit of a shine to it, like a gloss.

Hair tie and clippy – because I need to be ready to pull my curls back if I want to put the convertible top down on the Beetle.

Checkbook & pen – I usually don’t use this antiquated method of payment, but last week I had lost my debit card, so I was rocking it old school.  This little post reminded me to take the checkbook out of the purse.

Keys – I have so many keys – car, house (mine, parents’, sister’s), pool, locker room lock. I have my house/locker key on a little separate stretchy bracelet so that when I’m working out or walking Sofi, I just have the minimum needed hanging from my wrist.

Isaac Mizrahi wristlet – I love this little bag because I can have all of my cards and money in it and stow it in my larger handbag, or I can just slip it over my wrist if I want to go bag-free.  The wristlet came as part of a larger 3-piece set with a huge tote handbag, medium crossbody bag (I can’t wait for this bag to look good on me when I use it, once I lose weight), and this wallet bag (QVC). I love Isaac!
