Thanks to everyone who commented, and may you always have a book in your bag!
I always have a tube of Burt’s Bees pomegranate lip balm and my portable charger- don’t want chapped lips or a dead phone!
Besides the usual suspects (phone and wallet), I always have a couple of pens and some lip products (balm, lipstick, stain – whatever I’m using that day).
Purse porter! To hang the purse from the table and keep it off the floor.
Burt’s Bees lip balm, kleenex and my Kindle are always in my purse.
My Rx Sunglasses
Apparently I never leave home without my stash invisible but very heavy rocks. I can’t see them, but it’s the only explaination as to why that bag is so heavy.
Also, pens and lip balm and hand lotion and a book or my kindle (ok, maybe this is why it’s so heavy)
Besides the essentials: headphones 🙂
Earbuds and tissues. Always.
sunglasses and my kindle!!
My phone, wallet, gum, and medications. Boring I know!
I’m an author so I always make sure to carry my journal to note down fancy new ideas with me 🙂
My kindle, of course. I cannot leave the house without it. I have a minor panic attack if I don’t have it with me. The thought of not having anything to read is horrifying.
#1 Wallet, #2 Cellphone, although there have been times after switching things to a different bag for a special occasion that one or the other of those items has been missing and boy do I go into a panic!
Honestly, a small deoderant because summer days can get stinky.
A book, a snack, and lipstick!
Lip balm and Advil (as I have chronic back problems).
My phone, wallet, and medications! Boring, I know! Lol
Chapstick!
A pen and granola bar. They always come in handy. 🙂
I always have a ChapStick, phone and anti-anxiety meds. Just in case!
(Aside from wallet and phone. Oh and keys.)
Tissues, epipen, and reading material!
Thanks for the contest!
My kindle and snacks!
The three items I always have on me are my phone, keys, and lipstick.
I try to always include a book, but if it requires downsizing to a small purse, then a pen. I always try to have a pen with me.
I never leave home without cash and something to read.
Chapstick and my mobile charger. You never know when you’re going to need a charge!
Pager! I’m a physician.
Aside from my wallet, I feel naked without my cellphone, Kindle, and lip balm.
Phone! because it has the Kindle app 🙂
My Kindle Paperwhite, of course!
Aside from the essentials (phone and wallet) – external battery, usb cable and wall charger.
My Kindle – you never know when you might get stuck in line somewhere and get to sneak in a few minutes to read.
I make sure that I have my phone, my kindle, chapstick my traveler journal.
My reading glasses
ID, Debit Card, Book (s), notepad to write any idea for a story, pens, hopefully a piece of choclolate.
Survival Necessities: Earbuds & phone, dry roasted almonds in case I need an emergency pick-me-up, a bandanna if I neee to get my hair outta my face, and witch hazel towelettes in the summer in case my face gets hot and I wanna feel fresh (which always makes me think of witchy things and, well, who doesn’t want to take a moment and think of faux witchy things?).
I need sunglasses, a book, lip goo, and patience!
That bag is so pretty!
I try to always have a cloth to clean my glasses. Other than that, just the usuals… wallet, phone, keys, chapstick, earbuds, poop bags… always be ready to walk the dog and catch up on podcasts, I say!
My Kindle, phone, earbuds and a paperback. Love the aqua color!
I always have a pen…or three. I’ve been weirdly obsessed lately with the Muji .3mm pens – and in the process of collecting all the colors!
