I've always been one to snoop in my friend's/female relatives bags- with their permission of course,lol. I just watched Makeupbyrenren on youtube and it inspired me to carry the topic onto here =)

Im a big-purse girl, i love big bags and I keep everything in there. My friends say i'm like a pharmacy ...and call my bags "suitcases/overnight bags"lol.

So everyday I carry around:
Wallet
Mobile..or cell phone you who are American =)
Keys
Make up bag (which is big and heavy by itself already!)
Camera
Spare camera batteries & charger
Diary
Notebook & pen
Tissues
Tube of moisturiser
Allergy tablets
Head-ache tablets

Now i've written it down it doesn't seem that much to me

I like this topic! I carry big bags as well. I couldn't survive in a small bag. If I have to go to an event, I will put my big bag in the trunk of my car and carry my evening bag with just l/s and powder. That way I'll always have my stuff close by!!!!

Here are the contents of my purse:
Wallet
Cosmetic Bag
About 5 packs of Kleenex (the small travel packs). I have terrible allergies.
Advil
Aleve
Rosebud Salve
Cherry Chapstick
Pens
Calendar
Notebook
Camera
Extra film for camera (I like to actually get my pics developed!)
Keys
Blotting papers
Hand mirror
Jewelery shining cloth
Reading glasses (I'm getting so old!)
Cloth to clean glasses
Bottle of water
Mini hairbrush
Comb
Cell Phone
Hand Creme
Mints
Small pocket thingy to hold all my receipts
Husband's business cards

I think that is all....

Yeah i forgot to add:
iPod
Gum
Wet wipes
Gloves
Umbrella (English weather is so unpredictable!)

And if i ever go to a club I keep a pair of ballet slippers or flip flops depending on the season =0)

Urbanlilfairy: I love your camera! I need an urgent upgrade. i've had the same camera for 5 years..it zooms out but not in, it says im shooting in video mode when im actually taking photos, it makes a weird 'chug chugging' sound when I turn it off...lol and i swear the zoom focus is not up to scratch anymore!

KEEP EM COMIN'!!

I usually rotate between 5 or 6 purses. When I carry my biggest and favorite purse [Betsy Johnson Lucky Charms] I keep a tiny purse tucked inside so I don't have to haul the entire thing in with me when I need to make a quick dash into the store.

cell phone
pen and notepad
tampons
tylenol
dental toothpicks
gum, mints
Makeup bag - contains Dr. Hauschka pressed translucent powder, blotting papers, Dr. H mascara, MAC sheertone blush, MAC bisque, MAC royal assets palette [switch between warm, cool and smokey]
3 lipsticks
chapstick
wallet
cigs, lighter
keys of course!
2 tubes of sunscreen - one for face, another for body
manicure kit - contains glass nail file, buffer, clippers and cuticle oil
camellia oil
hand cream
Vitamins, tube of airborne
hand sanitizer
sunglass case and eyeglass cleanser

If I'm just carrying an evening bag, I pare this down to lipstick, changepurse, compact and keys only.
