What I Carry Inside My Purse

I wanted to share all the things I keep in my purse on a daily basis.

I have several small crossbody bags and another tote, but this is the one I use the most because it is the biggest and fits my computer. I found this at Nordstrom Rack last year but I linked several similar ones below.

What I keep Inside My Tote

Here is everything I keep in my tote, in no particular order!

1. My computer

This is an obvious one, as I said before I love having a tote that holds my computer. Shop my computer case here.

2. Invisibobble Hairtie

I feel like this is an obvious one as well, but I always need hair ties! I love the slim invisibobble ones because my hair never slips from them.

3. Deodorant Ball

I can’t stand that feeling I get when I leave the house and later realize I forgot to put on deodorant. I like the deodorant ball because it is compact and kind of looks like a giant eco lip balm so no one can tell it’s deodorant.

4. It’s a 10 Miracle Leave-in Plus Keratin

This is the spray I use every time I get out of the shower to detangle my hair. I love this tiny version on the go so my hair stays shiny and friz-free!

5. NARS mini concealer

I started carrying this mini concealer for touch-ups.

6. Rollerball Perfume

As you can see I use this a lot – mine is almost empty and I haven’t been able to find a replacement. I forget to put on perfume half the time so this is perfect.

7. Mini Hairbrush

There are plenty more affordable brushes but this one from Sephora makes my hair soft and I don’t lose many hairs.

8. Tide To-go Pen

I have used this countless times to remove stains on the go.

9. Keyring

I would forget my keys or my ID if I didn’t keep them together. This keyring is perfect so I never leave the house without my ID, insurance cards and debit card.

10. Wallet

I actually only paid $25 for this Kate Spade wallet I got at an outlet near me. I have a bigger one that I keep my entire card collection in, but this one is great for traveling because it is more compact so I only carry when I need on a daily basis.

11. Hand Sanitizer

I have been carrying the bath and body works hand sanitizers ever since I could remember!

12. Moroccan Magic Lip Balm

To be honest, I hadn’t heard of Moroccan Magic until they reached out to me a couple months ago to send me some of their lip balms. I have to say I am very impressed! I’m not even usually a lip balm person but I think their lip balms make my lips so soft.

13. Sunglasses + Sunglass Case

I always keep a pair of sunglasses in my bag, but only carry them in their cases. I have broken too many pairs to leave them naked!

14. Hand Lotion

I love this one from Aerin.

15. Calendar

I have been using the Lilly Pulitzer planners for years and love them!
