Thanks to everyone who commented, and may you always have a book in your bag!
Mini-box of crayons and wipes for the kids. A pen and notebook for me. Loving the colour of this bag!
Lip balm and sunscreen. There may also be a roll of poop bags.
Sunscreen and sunglasses–California essentials!
Other than wallet, keys and my phone, it’s all baby stuff – diapers, wipes, snacks, spare clothes, more wipes and sunblock. The little guy has a sun hat in that same aqua color!
Cell phone, wallet and dark chocolate.
Wallet, phone, chapstick, and swiss army knife
My wallet! Gotta pay to play!
–Thank you! Looooooove this bag.
The morning mantra: “glasses, keys, wallet, phone, beeper, nook.” And I keep my Burt’s Bees lip gloss in my pocket.
My cell phone and a book
My phone and a physical book in case my phone battery runs out.
My phone
Wallet, pen, and smartphone. There is no such thing as boredom when my kindle, games, twitter, and internet are all at my finger tips (literally).
My Kindle Paperwhite.. Every girl needs one ❤️.
Sketchbook and pen 🙂
A book: paper or e-book on my Kindle/iPad and a few chocolates – just in case 🙂
As summer is around the corner I now carry sunscreen with me at all times.
Phone, lip gloss and Swedish fish candy to snack on and with which to bribe my kids to be well behaved in the car.
Wet wipes are an absolute must.
Definitely my Kindle! I never know when I’d want to read my book somewhere 🙂
Since I moved to Rome and started riding the public bus on a regular basis? Hand sanitizer. Also good for petting stray cats!
Besides the wallet and phone, I try to always have nail clippers or a file. I can’t handle pointy edges or rough spots on my nails. I pick at them endlessly if I can’t clip them or file them down.
Because I’m quite the hoarder and I also like carrying the world around with me (I have needs ok), my bags usually have – lipbalm, comb, 3-4 lipsticks, eyeliner, a tiny roller perfume, some wet tissues, paper towels, hand sanitiser, hand cream, biscuits, small water bottle, my kindle for the journey, headphones, phone, wallet, 10+ pens (I love my coloured pens!) and at least two notebooks.
My moleskin notebook. No matter where I go it’s in my purse for list making, idea remembering, thought writing or anything else that needs to be documented.
I never leave without my lip balm and tissues. Lately, also a snack for the toddler. Thanks for hosting the giveaway!
Besides walker, keys, and phone: Snacks – because my hanger is no joke 😀
And a pen, just in case. No idea what that might be since I take notes on my phone, but still.
Besides wallet/keys/phone, I always make sure to have a backup battery for my phone and something to read, either paperback or my Kobo.
Sunglasses and and headphones for my audio books en route!
Lip gloss/balm & Mentos spearmint gum!
(Apologies if this is a double up)
My handbag essentials are keys, purse, phone and KINDLE. Every bag has to be able to fit those.
Chapstick and lipstick. Both always needed so many reasons!
I never thought of myself as high maintenance, but all these Chapstick comments make me feel like maybe I am. I never leave the house without at least one neutral lip gloss and one lipstick in my purse. I just never know what I am feeling before I get in the car. Gloss only? Lipstick only? Or do I go crazy and combine them?
Beyond the basics, I always have sunglasses, a small notebook, and a pen. I am always on the look out for sunshine and inspiration.
I never leave without a notebook and a pen… plus wallet and phone. Must be able to write things down!

My phone-have to have it!
Drivers License….cause that ticket cost me!!!!!!
Phone and a snack! And a hot wheels car for the kiddo…
Keyso. Always. I’ve been locked out too many times to count. And headphones to listen to my audiobooks en route to and from everywhere
Phone and tablet to read with
Sunglasses, lip gloss, and my Kindle. A girl can never live without 🙂
