Having a trendy and sturdy bag/purse can do wonders for jet-setters and empowered women (I should know).
But what's IN the bag? List your bare essentials here:
1. Mobile Phone
2. Wallet
3. Cards
4. Coin Purse/Coin Bag
5. Keys.
6. Hygiene and Makeup Kit

That's about it :biggrin:

1. Phone
2. Wallet (I alternate between using a card holder and a compact wallet)
3. Keys (in 6 ring key holder)

If I know I'll be out for a long time I'll add
4. Tissues/wet wipes
5. little mini pochette with lip products, perfume, headphones, panadol (random things I may need on a longer outing :P)

This definitely makes sense. I don't change bags too often and stick to the same one for a couple of weeks. I hate changing bags so I keep the same things in one bag whether I may need them or not. This makes my bag heavier than it's supposed to be. Lol

I forgot to add that I also throw in an umbrella in the bag 'coz I might need it. Lol
Plus: cash bag for deposits (yes, it fits in my bag lol)

When going out for casual events and to run errands, I just bring along a small bag with my wallet, cards, and phone.
Does anyone bring a taser and pepper spray with them?

I guess I'm lucky that the weather where I am is almost always dry, we get rain probably 10-20 days in a year, so I rarely have to carry an umbrella. I change my bag 1-2 times a week :P

My regular everyday contents are a wallet (one big or two little), phone, small make up pouch (lip balm/stick, travelo atomiser, toothpicks, chewing gum or mints), powder compact and brush, earphones, purse hook and a larger pouch (portable charger, tissues, dog poop bags, miscellaneous keys, pencil, hair clips, dog treats.

When I switch to a mini bag/clutch I usually take the two small wallets (flat cardholder and a coin purse), the small make up pouch and my phone.

I keep my house keys on a lanyard separate from my car fob and this I leave in the car all the time so I only ever have to carry the small fob.
