sight's post and thought it interesting (and she said she wanted to see others do this too), so I thought of giving this a go.
I usually carry big bags and have a ton of stuff inside. Since I got this new bag, I've been trying to downsize, but I'm still amazed at the amount of stuff that I don't actually use, ever, that's in my bag... so...
1. This is my new bag. It's a lot smaller than the bags I usually carry. I've been trying to downsize as my shoulder is starting to bother me, and I think it's because of the heavy bags I've been carrying for years... I admit this is just a fraction of what I'd normally have in a larger bag, but even so my bag now is heavy. So with a bigger bag? Heavier.
2. Home keys! I use them every day.
3. Coin bag. As you can see, there is no wallet in this picture. That's because, I have such a large wallet, it doesn't fit in this bag... and I still need coins. AND I firmly believe in always having something childish/ridiculous/funny/interesting on you. Thus that racoon/bear/whatever animal coin purse.
4. Pill box with supplements (that I hardly remember to take)
5. Business card holder. Which doubles to hold my cash notes, my bank card, credit card, and ID card, since I can't carry my wallet in this bag. It doesn't show in the photo, but it's the little Dino from Agnes b sport line. I love that Dino.
6. Tissue
7. The iPhone 4s has my personal number on it. I use it to check my messages as now I mainly work from my work phone, an iPhone 5s (which was used to take this photo). My work phone hardly leaves my hands, not because I'm compulsive checking, but, I have a habit of putting my phones on mute since the day I hold on to them, and my boss hates it when I don't answer calls. That said, I hardly use the iPhone 4s.
8. Minty mints! (which I hardly eat)
9. Kindle 3! (or now known as Kindle Keyboard) which... lately I hardly read... but I'm still carrying it.
10. Make-up pouch, which holds most of the other stuff in here....
11. Hand cream which I hardly use
12. Eye shadow pallette which I hardly use
13. Mirror case which I hardly use
14. - 23. Medicated lip balm that I hardly use, regular lip balm, eyeshadow brush, rouge lipstick, eyeliner, mascara, BB cream, sample-sized perfum bottle, 2 travel-pack-size facewash/make up remover.... all of which I hardly use.....
24. Pantyliner, very much needed for a just in case
25. Pad, similarly very much needed for a just in case. I'm pretty punctual and accurate with my periods but you never know.
I just might do one again when I've switched to my regular bag again so I can see what other more crap I carry around. Did you notice over 90% of the stuff in my bag are things I hardly use?
