- iPod and noise isolating headphones - it's the best way to deter sales people, chatty people and annoying people.
- Glasses - I'm not really blind, but I have to use them occasionally when driving or if I'm just trying to look smart.
- Lipbalm - My dog usually eats all my lip balm, so I end up using whatever I get free or is a gift. This lip butter is from a Korres skincare set.
- Wallet - I received this Gucci wallet for a birthday many years ago. It's still holding up pretty well so I don't think I'll be changing it for a long while.
- Field Notes - Like they say, "I'm not writing it down to remember it later, I'm writing it down to remember it now!"
Tagged - The Five Essentials
1.20.2011
This should be fun. Jennifer of Grey Garden tagged me to post my five daily essentials. I think it's a more streamline take on the 'What's In Your Bag' viral tags so I shall happily oblige. As I mentioned before, I hate carrying bags and find myself usually stashing things into my jeans, coat or shirt pockets. I guess if there's any aspect of my life that is truly minimalistic, I would say the answer lies in my purse! Anyway, these are the five items I try to bring with me everywhere I go - either in my Kanken when I go to school, in my JW Hulme Mini Legacy for everyday use or in my PS1 when I'm feeling a little dressy. I won't tag anyone at the end of the post because everyone I know has done one of these, but if you haven't yet, feel free to do it and then post a link in the comments section.

About
This blog is filled with confessions and tribulations; it's where I document musings on life as a working mother to a feisty 16-month old with food allergies and a rascally 12-year old dachshund. It's where I'm simultaneously allowed to be vulnerable and pretentious, frivolous and conscientious. I'm constantly outraged and continuously pessimistic.

How do you like your JW Hulme Mini Legacy? I love the shape of those bags and have always wondered how well they wear.
ReplyDeleteOh, it's perfect. I can see it lasting a long time, sort of like the really old Coach bags. It's not so expensive that I get heartbroken if it's scratched, it's really rugged and can take lots of beating and yet look distinctly classy in some old-fashion way. I should post a picture.
ReplyDeleteI love that Korres lip butter. its one of my favorites
ReplyDeleteOh, I love posts like this, and I'm actually working a "what's in my bag"-post myself right now. But, just like you, I find it often much easier using my jeans/pockets too.
ReplyDeleteAne: We should do a "what's in my pockets" post. Probably a lipgloss, wad of cash and an ID with lint for me. =)
ReplyDeleteHaha, I know! That's exactly what I keep in my pockets too. PS, I'm adding you to my blogroll :)
ReplyDeleteAne: Thank you! Link reciprocated.
