What's inside your bag?

During a discussion about searches and seizures, our law professor said that a woman's bag has full of secrets. In such a tiny purse, a woman can fit in a lot of things and you'll even be surprised of what's inside.
That's true. I am not a fan of big bags, except the ones I used for school so that everything can fit inside. But on regular days, I use a medium-sized bag with all the essentials in there - my wallet, mobile phone, IPad, planner, makeup kit, pens, camera and tissue.
I'm pretty sure men are also curious about this. How about you? What's inside your bag?
Looking forward to your responses! :)

Hi ayeeesha! I admire us women on how can we maximize the space of our bag with all the things we bring especially for the beauty kit. I normally use a medium size bag but I can also make a small bag function like medium bag. So whenever I travel I have a small pouch for a ballpen, blotting paper with powder, loose powder on a very small container with tiny sponge, very thin face powder, thin hair brush, magic lipstick that I use as blush on too. I carry a tiny oil perfume in balm form. I bring folding thin fan, tiny folding umbrella, tissue paper, thin wallet and bottled water.
When I use a small bag I remove the loose powder and face powder. Instead I only use the blotting paper with powder (Rice paper). I don't bring umbrella but I bring a big scarf. Then I just carry the bottled water with my hand.

Yes! I have a bag organizer that I made on my own. I just used an old cloth and stitched it with hard paper inside it. I don't want my things cluttered because I'm always on the go. Hehe. I think I don't have much inside my bag compared to other women.

i love big bags and they are full of things. i don't change bags often and i tend to accumulate things inside. i have pens, lighters, tissue, phone, wallet, documents, old receipts, umbrella, and reading glasses. my husband says that searching for something inside my bag is like searching for a needle in a haystack!
i just checked and i even have pieces of candy wrappers inside! if i can't find a trash bin, i put the wrapper inside my bag instead of throwing it on the street.

i will prefer a large bag when i go to school. like you, i want all my things to put inside in it and intact it all in one container. but if i just simply hanging with my friends or just wandering around, i prefer a sling bag that is not too big. things that i put inside of it are just cellphones, makeup kit, powder, and of course my wallet. i guess, there is a bag that is appropriate for every occasion :)

I have purses in different sizes, but I prefer the big ones more. Just because I carry a lot of stuff with me for everyday work. When I am just going around the corner to do some errands, I usually just carry my wallet or a small one. But I find the following stuff in my bag that I carry the most:
wallet, cellphone, organizer, GPS, chargers, coin purse, keys, pens, make up kit, hair brush, sunglasses, gloves, wet ones, kleenex, gum, umbrella, receipts, ipod touch, iPad and my on the go bible.

My bag has 3 sections:
1. Toiletries (tissue, brush, powder, toothbrush, etc.)
2. Personal stuffs (wallet, phone, flash drive, notepad, extras, etc.)
3. School materials (only when schooldays)

I have different kinds of bags, some of them are small, some of them are medium sized and some of them are large. At the moment carry a large bag when I leave the house. My husband usually jokes about it and he says that I carry too many things when I use a large bag. I think that he has a point because I do carry quite a lot of stuff In my bag there are my wallet, my cell phone, my keys, my day planner, my notebook, many different pens, some candy, some pain killers, some sanitary pads, some tissues, a small mirror, some make-up, the novel that I am reading at the moment, some cds that I listen to in the car etc.

Wow. You sure do need a big bag for that :) That's actually the good thing about having a big bag, you can put a lot of things in it :) I like using big bags but in school only. But on ordinary days, I just use a medium-sized one since it's easier to look for my stuff :)
Thanks for sharing! :)
