I big bags just so I don't have to choose! I carry tons around with me everyday LOL! I "need" my cell phone, a mirror, lotion, wallet, house & car keys, sunnies, a pencil case, a lot of documents, agenda, iPod, coin purse (even though I hate paying with change, strange!), a book for if I'm bored, a scarf cuz I'm usually cold, and... did I forget anything? No wonder I've made the migration from Marc Jacobs to LV bags, my MJ bags (even though I them) are just sooo heavy!

[elmel]

wallet, cell phone, agenda, and a little makeup bag into which i squeeze: tide to go, tissues, hand cream, hand sanitizer, tampons, advil, bandages, eye glass wipes, a hair tie and a bobby pin, a mini flashlight, mints, face blotting tissue, and chapstick. this helps my bags look more organized nd fit more, also makes it easier to switch between bags!

Wallet, cell phone, concealer, lip gloss, pill case, mints, pad/tampon.

Of course, if there's extra room, I will add: hair pomade, mini perfume, etc.
