- Smooth leather with matching trim
- Capital Kate Jacquard lining, 14-karat light gold plated hardware
- Top handle bag with zip top closure

Also included is a $25 gift card to Amazon! You need to fill up your new bag, right?

Always a book – I have a fear of being trapped on my train with nothing to read,
My zoo pass!
What a fun shade for summer! Aside from the usual, I always have something to read with me.
I never leave without my DIY essential oil mix of rose otto and sweet orange oil mixed with almond oil. Putting on a touch during the day is so nice.
Unfortunately — My Migraine medicine.
Lip balm. I’ve left my phone home more times than I can remember, but any time I’ve left my house without lip balm, I end up driving to the nearest CVS or Walgreens to buy more even if I’m only minutes from home where I’ve left my lip balm.
Wipes, a tampon, and tweezers for that stray witchy hair on my chin that I only ever notice in the rear view mirror on my way to somewhere that I’ll probably already be self-conscious.
I always carry lip balm, ear buds, my phone and a credit card.
Kindle, wallet, keys. Sometimes I leave my phone behind by “accident” of course.
Lip gloss, hair tie, phone, wallet, and keys!
What I always actually have is about 8 chapsticks and a few wadded up Kleenex’s. What I mean to always have: Kindle, wallet, keys, and phone.
Chapstick and emergency glasses. what can I say? I am a bit of a disaster with contacts and glasses
I always bring a book!
I always, always, ALWAYS carry a book with me!
Earbuds so I can always listen to my podcasts on the go!
My ereader and my glasses cleaner, so I can always be reading!
Brush, tylenol, sunglasses.
My phone and another book reader of some kind. Don’t want to run out of books, especially with a childhood where I only had access to books in Braille or what I could get in the mail from the talking book library.
Chapstick, a travel-sized nail kit (I’m forever breaking nails), and my iPad mini (with Kindle app) for reading everywhere!
On public transit I carry a small toy. Good for any small fussy children who sit near me and just need a distraction. In a pinch, though, I just play peekaboo with my sunglasses.
I never leave with behind my purse umbrella and aleve.
Hairholders, pen and lip balm!
And the beautiful bag looks aquamarine to me!
Obviously, I never leave home without my Kindle or the Kindle app on my phone. Aside from that, All I really need is my drivers license and a credit card.
Besides my wallet and keys, I always carry my phone, and sunglasses.
I have to have my hand lotion with me always!
My secondary phone battery and my bullet journal!
Band aids and a book. I can’t be without either!
My usual bag is a Patagonia fanny pack (which should probably disqualify me from a Kate Spade giveaway, but sometimes I like to glam it up), and it perfectly fits my keys, cellphone, aromatherapy cloth, and any cards I need.
Besides my wallet and keys, my phone and sunglasses.
Always have my lipstick with me! And a $20 bill because you never know what might happen….
Keys,wallet,and my smartphone.
Shoutout to Google Maps.
Sunglasses and chapstick.
A book.
A book. I have a deep fear of being stuck on the train with nothing to read.
A backup battery so I can keep my iPad charged.
Keys, wallet, phone, lipstick, mints, a pen, and moist towelettes (not exciting, but often useful), and, judging from how heavy the damn thing is, some anvils I can’t see…
I always keep hand sanitizer in my purse. Especially if it smells good!
Truly, can’t leave home without them? They’re stuffed in my pockets & bra if I don’t have a purse? Kindle, puffs plus, phone, cash & 1 credit card (preferably Visa. You actually *can* leave home without American Express). Probably lip gloss: I’m a mouth-breather. Obviously, without a purse, I need a really big bra. And therapy.
My yearly calendar definitely
My wallet, phone, keys and tissues.
