I once belonged to a purse addicts board where we shared and photographed the contents in our bag (bag included in the picture, of course). The rule was that we couldn't "stage" the picture; whatever was inside your bag at the moment, you left it there and photographed it. Many ladies also included a list of the contents. Needless to say, it was a LOT of fun and gave everyone a little peek at who we are. You can do this as many times as you want. Perhaps we can make this a daily/weekly/monthly routine!

I'll post my picture later since it is still early here. Your bag does not have to be an Hermes, of course! Since I post here frequently, I thought I'd start the thread here.

Okay, spill it! :D

My pic will come tomorrow! Have you seen the book by Kate Spade which I believe is called "Contents"? It has women who dump their purse and list everything, and in the back is the pic of the purse separate - it's pretty neat - I think there are 2 Hermes bags included;

brownpaperbag - i just discovered it! it's so nice for the frizzies on the ends of my hair or smoothing out ponytail kinks and reviving curls. :love:

hehe. usually, on top of all that stuff i have a paperback and a liter of water floating around. but i just finished my novel a couple days ago and haven't started a new one and the liter of water is sitting next to me at the computer. :) and if i have to work more than 6 hours, there's another make up bag with my actual makeup (blush, powder, eyeshadow, etc.)

it's quite sad really. :) but this is why i love speedy so so much. i always broke other purses and could never zip them b/c there's so much stuff in there. :)

That reminds me of the scene in The Breakfast Club where Ally Sheedy's character dumps all this stuff out of her bag and it seems never-ending.The guys says "why do you have so much sh*t in your purse?" and she says something like "you never know when you'll have to run away".
