Hello Mylotters! This is some kind of a girlie talk:) You know before i leave home in an ordinary working day, I check my bag, if these things are all in: celphone, wallet, keys, compact face powder with SPF, lip gloss/Chapstick, hand sanitizer, ballpens, tissue paper, body splash/spray, hair brush, small bottle of refreshing mint candy. When all of these are complete, i will be ready then to face the day ahead. What about you girl, what's in your bag???

I can't leave home without these things in my bag: cellphone, wallet, keys, handkerchief/tissues, a mirror, comb. That's probably it. Though I still have more, they're not something I wouldn't survive without. Like a pen, pressed powder, lip balm, sometimes body splash. Don't you notice it's almost the same for everyone?

Don't you wonder how they all seem to fit inside our bags? Sometimes mine is too full.

@whitewingspeak, here is another reason why I have only the most basic things in my bag. I have different bags for different occasion. My bag for going to work is bigger than the others and I used different bag on different day. So every time I just take the stuff out from one bag to another bag.

Yah, I can imagine your bag must be a little bigger than the usual sizes hehe. Lots of stuffs in there! But anyway, they are all important stuffs in your day to day activity. How frequent do you change bags? Do you do it every weekend? I hate to change bags, i want to use a bag for months, and change it when i got bored with it. But i do not change it often. Have a nice day!

Hi whitesingspeak, I'm a girl. I think among all the comments I read, there are things that I never have in my bag, but seems a MUST thing in a girl's bag. A comb, a body splash and compact face powder. Haha, I never bring all these out. I only have the most basic: cellphone, wallet, keys, panty liner, vicks and lip gloss. I don't thing comb is necessary, I don't touch up my face with powder when I'm out because I live in a hot country. With all the sweat and dirt being at outside, I don't think I can applied another layer of powder on the dirt of my face.

Thanks for the suggestion whitewingspeak, I know I should protect my skin from the sunlight. But I just don't like applying powder and get all sticky with the sweat. I live in a hot country, and that means I really have to apply SPF protection, but I just don't like powder. I just use OXY powder lotion with SPF 15 before I go out. You never know when you will exposed to certain unpleasant smell. When you walk nearby the garbage bin, or maybe when you need to stand near to someone with unpleasant odor. As I said before I live in a hot country, it just inevitable at certain time of the day where some people might got this certain odor on them. So I think it is more polite for me to rub the vicks on my nose instead of covering my nose. And of course I get sick and dizzy easily from this hot weather. So, I really need the vicks. Water is a must for me. I can drink water like a camel. What to do, it's a hot country. The size of my bottle is depends on my duration I spent outside. I always bring 2000ml to work. If I just went out for an hour or two, I will just bring a 500ml. Now everyone knows I live in a hot country. The weather is the factor of stuffs in my bag =)

Hi de_angel! I think you have to put on some powder but make sure it is with SPF. My powder has SPF 30 so i don't worry if i will be exposed to the sun for a little while. You don't need a comb if u have a silky shiny hair or a short hair. Why do u bring a Vicks? hahah U got sick riding in a bus or jeepney? Do you commute? What about water, i think u must bring a bottle of water, too. @swirlz- I bring pantiliners, too, sometimes...hehehe

What's in my bag? Things that i couldn't leave home without. First my two cellphones, i have a private one and a business one. My ipad, need to know what's going on in mylot when i'm stranded somewhere with wifi ! Lip gloss with spf, they are very important as it touches my lips more than anybody else and it has certain properties that can bring back the natural color of my lips and it lightens it too. Wet wipes or tissue. Hand gel, i have a lot of hand gels from Bath and Body works that has a handle you can hang in your bag, so each bag has their own hand gel attached to it. I can do away with the compact powder since i don't stay out that long. I seldom bring colognes for the very same reason and my colognes last for the whole day. Hair brush, i don't need them at all when i permed my hair, i only have to use my hands to brush my hair and they don't get mess up anyway.

I'm allergic to perfumes since perfumes have oil and it has stronger scents than colognes. I like Victoria's SEcret Garden or Victoria's SEcret beauty rush. They do last the whole day even in a very humid climate like ours.

I can picture your personality just by knowing what stuffs you carry in your bag. I think you are very particular of your health and you are very hygeinic, and you are taking care of your lips, hummmm to make it more kissable? You sound like an active, sweet, lovely and tidy girl! What cologne are you using that will last the whole day? Maybe it is not cologne, maybe it a signature perfume???

Oh you have very good selection of scents! So sweet. I tried the Victoria Secret Garden lotion before and the scent just stays with you for long and i don't need a perfume then. :)

My bag for the office would usually consist the same things as yours. A small kit, with lipstick, press powder, eye shadow , eyeliner , brow maker, mascara, a small baby oil and some cotton buds. Then , in my bag will also be my wallet, small notebook, ballpen , cellphone, charger , keys , usb and eye glasses. Would you believe that they fit my medium sized bag?

Oh yeah, i think a cell phone charger is important, too. I just don't bring it to my workplace. Your eyeglass is a reading glass? It must be place in the bag too, that is important stuff, you know. Your bag must be having some small pockets or compartment that all these stuffs are fitted in there. Hahaha. Thanks for the respond!

My bag have a lot of things. Usually, I carry some books, pens, hair brush, cell phone, wallet and candies. My bag usually is very disorganized and, at the end of the day, it take a long time until I find what I'm looking for. Do you have any tips to let the things organized?

Hi, I think maybe you need a bag organiser. It's like a pouch with many small compartment.

Or maybe moneywinner, you can buy a bag with lots of compartments, or pockets. That way you will organize and arrange your things according to sizes and its needs. You segregate the food, the toiletries, and office/school supplies, etc. Happy organizing moneywinner! Thanks for the reply!

Bag - Ladies bring along so many items inside.
I think most girls have common items in their bag. Just as you enumerated I also do bring along my cellphone, wallet,coin purse bunch of keys, baby face powder, lip balm, hand sanitizer, pen, mini notepad, face tower tissue paper, cologne and also my digital camera. I also have to bring a mini Bible especially if I'd travel for an hour or more.

I have my trusted cellphone, cash,cologne, tissues, make up kit, house keys, wallet and atm. I also have my planner and a set of index cards where I can write almost anything including anything connected with my office work or messages for my brother and daughter before I go to the office. I double check on them too since It feels like I am missing something if I don't have any of these things.

My girlfriend usually picks her cellular phone, wallet - which contains her money, identification card, her bank card and a photography of us two :D - house keys of course, all those hygiene and beauty products - dental floss, tissues and hairbrush, hand sanitizer, lipstick and she usually carries a sanitary napkin aswell. Apart from those, she never forgets about the medication, which stands for pills she keeps in a little container if any headaches and so show up. Uhm, a little notebook, a pen and a pack of mint gum.
