Now I NEED TO PUT BACK IN MEY BAG
In my bag there's almost nothing: a purse, my phone, hankies and some peppermints. Less is more Happy.
Recently made a Vinyl Record purse so I've been cramming it with stuff...like my wallet of course, lip balm, a compact mirror, P.O. box key, car keys, mini flashlight, rainbow band-aids, safety pins, a sharpie, two pens (one purple one black), a mechanical pencil, a highlighter, my DON'T PANIC hitchhiker's notebook, my mp3 player, my cell phone, loose change, sunglasses, mini Swiss Army knife, bug spray, gum, hair elastics and clips, earbuds, sometimes I'll have my camera, lighters, miscellaneous necklaces bracelets earrings and rings (don't worry they have their own case), Anti-itch cream, my Nintendo DS lite, extra Nintendo DS games, a comb, a map of my college campus, and delicious smelling body spray. And yes, it all fits.
WELL!!

I do not have a handbag soooo, I will tell you what I stuff in my pockets, my boyfriends pockets and what I carry in hand. YES. I am a mess to go anywhere with.

MY BACK RIGHT POCKET:
-I broke my wallet a year ago so now I just use the photo wallet that was inside of it to carry I.D. and cash cards.
-Loose cash.
-Receipts.
MY BACK LEFT POCKET:
-Cell phone
FRONT RIGHT POCKET:
-Extra clips for my hair (I have thick hair and live in bad humidity)
-Car keys (they bulge hideously unless I let them hang out, which I then sound like a janitor coming around every corner =D )
FRONT LEFT POCKET:
-Loose change..(which I always carry because I looove paying exact change.)
-Chapstick! Sometimes two! (humidity and sun damage remember??)
ELSEWHERE:
-In Louisiana you always need to be prepared with sunglasses, mine hang on the collar of my shirt. Which I have to switch with seeing glasses I normally have on my face lol
-Always extra hair ties on my wrists.
MY BOYFRIENDS POCKETS:
-My adorable, compact steady shot camera (unfortunately for my bf, it's pink)
-Tampons, when needed (at least I get the really small ones/he's a great bf)
-Pack of Eclipse peppermint gum (he carries his own big red, ick!)

Finally! That's about the general idea of my daily get-up. Don't even ask what I resort to when I'm dressed up and at a loss for pockets!!
I neeeeeed and want a cute handbag of my own, please save me! (and especially my good sport of a boyfriend)

^_^
Undo the broken zipper and inside my bag you'll find
a cluttered up assortment of things of course could only be mine.
The first you'll see is blue and flowered- my little notebook notebook- full.
The next is a bright orange umbrella with a blue handle and pull.
Five mechanical pencils; I've made sure they're full of lead.
A little clay Timucanpi- I'm surprised it isn't dead.
Two tubes of flavored chapsticker- one brushed metal, the other pink.
My very favorite pen- years old, still full of ink.
Blue camera and case, both only a few days old.
A random thing of strawberry jam (was I supposed to keep it cold?)
Reciept, an mp3 player, headphones, hairpins, a ring.
A book, Great Expectations- I still have to read that thing...
Two quarters, two dimes, a penny, nickel, and foundation.
Bert's Bee's lemongrass repellent- best stuff in the nation.
A Hufflepuff hat and a brand new wallet are all that's left inside.
Now you know what's in my purse, because what do I have to hide?


Sorry...that was totally overboard. But I'm feeling poetic~ ;)

A needle - I always carry a needle. Some complain about Health and Safety, but I think it would definitely be more dangerous to not have one on me in a crafting crisis.

Then there's my thought book, whenever I have a thought I just pop it in there. It's great to have, I think everyone should have one.

Also I am never without any reading material, be it the new issue of ELLE or the current book I am reading.

But I think most importantly I always carry a plush toy, mainly my octopus. They are there to guard all my stuff, so far it has worked Happy.

My biker Betty Boop bag that my family gave me for my Birthday one year holds my matching biker Betty Boop zipper bag which holds my driver's license, credit cards, bank card, checkbook, voter registration, social security cards, reciepts from the grocery or gas station. The main bag holds my medical cards for me and the kids, current book that will fit (not all do!!), notebook for sudden inspiration on my legal homework, pen (usually one that works) and keys. That is usually all but on occasion I can stuff in a lot more LOL.
In my bag I carry my mobile, wallet and change purse; a cute stripey 'baby sock' one that I love. I also have a pen, to note down any arty ideas I get during the day, a bottle of water, and my uniform for work so I don't forget it. Oh, also a packet of tissues. There's not really that much in it but my bag is nice and big so that I never have to use plastic bags if I buy something in town Happy

I got my Snow White purse from a lovely dwarf woman when I wandered into the Royal Wardrobe at Disneyland. After looking through all the clothes that were too small for me and feeling sad, I saw this wonderful pop art apple patterned patchy button thing. Contents: Wallet [ID Card, Hello Kitty Bank Card, $2], Green Apple iPod, iPod Speakers from the 99 Cent Store! Magic Mirror that makes a shimmery sound when you push the apple, Nintendo DS, Jesse's Girl Black Nail Polish, Violet USB Cord, My Keys, Green Hi-Lighter & Wooden Pencil, Tarot Cards, Makeup Bag, Medicine Pouch, Forest Green Lolita Shades, Camera [not pictured]

I never realised I carried all this around with me until I just layed it all out. I took this all to a festival with me, so this is a 'cleared out' version of my bag!

Purse - with the grand total of 50p in it.
Driving licence - because i look under 18 even tho I'm nearly 21!
Bank cards - no money but still :p
Job applications - because i got made redundant =
Book - Pillow talk by freya north
10 pack of mayfair menthol - I rarely smoke, but incase I have the need.
BP petrol reciept - because cars need to drink too!
Black nail varnish - chipped nails are the devils work :p
Impulse body spray - you never know!
Earrings - I feel naked without them!
Hair band - Kreepsville 666 stuff, for when my dread extentions drive me insane.
Tablets - anti panic attack, cause I'm special haha.
Extra chewing gum - no one likes smelly breath!
Lip balm - for soft lips!
Spare batterys - you never know when you'll need em!
Game perfume - it's lush!
Download festival wrist band - it always makes me smile =]

I usually have my camera and my mobile too =]



This is all kept in my Motley Crue tote I made out of a t-shirt I had Happy
