Chic Peek: What's in My Bag?

Oct 1, 2012 at 4:00am by Lauren Conrad

A lady's purse is her sanctuary. It's a place where all of her knickknacks and daily deeds are stored away from the world. And if you ask me, the contents of one's bag can tell you a lot about its owner. Since I've had a lot of people request a What's in My Bag? blog I've decided to finally clear out the crumpled receipts, stow away the spare change, and show you guys what's actually in my bag:

fEQSLwP9QRyXg04WlDMiEY2C.jpeg:Amazon:photo

  1. Almonds. To prevent a case of the hangries.
  2. Concealer. I never leave home without my Cle' de Peau.
  3. Car keys. I live in LA, it's kind of a given...
  4. Lipstick. I like to keep a tube of red lipstick in my purse. Never know when you might need to add a little color to your pout during an impromptu outing.
  5. Lip gloss. I love Dior Addict Ultra Gloss. It leaves my lips with a subtle, non-sticky shine and the color is close to my natural shade, which I like.
  6. Lip balm. Is there anything worse than finding yourself with chapped lips and nothing to salvage the situation? I always have some form of lip conditioner with me at all times.
  7. Wallet. Another essential.
  8. Perfume. Chanel Chance is a year-round favorite for me when it comes to perfumes. I keep a bottle with me since I tend to reapply when the course of my day changes (such as post-work drinks or a surprise dinner date). For tips on picking the right perfume for you and making it last, click here.
  9. Sunglasses. The bigger the better.
  10. Pen. I feel like it's more hygienic to use your own pen, plus I like how this one writes. I'm not a germaphobe, I just think it's a good idea...
  11. Hair goodies. I always keep a bunch of bobby pins tied together with a hair tie. I cannot even begin tell you how many times this little bundle has saved me from serious hair hang-ups.
  12. SPF. You guys know how I strongly I feel about the importance of wearing sunscreen. It's the key to smooth skin and a (somewhat) wrinkle-free future.
  13. Compact mirror. Another must.
  14. Gum. I always like to keep a pack in my bag.

 

I suppose the contents of my purse would reveal that I am a beauty loving health nut :-) Literally.

Now it's your turn to show off the contents of your purse. Snap a photo and upload the image to your profile page and leave the image link in the comments below for a chance to be featured on the site.

What do the goodies inside your bag say about you?

XO Lauren

      Hi LC :)

      First let me say that my daughter Allie and I both love you. We are two of your biggest fans. Believe it or not, your sense of style has been my own for as long as I can remember. I am a dinosar... lol! I have given that gift to my daughter - although she obviously has her own style... she too has a lot of yours as well.

      Although I am older than most here, I would like to agree with Michelle B. I have the same contents but with Advil and a few of the Centrum Performance vitamins. Nice to know, I am still with the in-crowd.

      (LC - I am trying to located the "Peplum" and "Cocoon" coats you posted. I love them both just as they are on the models, and not too fond of the "shop the look" suggestions. Not to mention, I cannot seem to find them anywhere! HELP!

      Hope all is well for you LC in all you set out to accomplish!

      Ladies on the site - have a wonderful week.

      Kind regards,

      Tammy Lee

      I have always wanted a chanel bag! Hopefully one day lol! I like to keep a small umbrella, I mean hey you never know when it might rain. I also keep my car keys, gum, my wallet, and a few bobby pens myself. Besides those things I keep a leopard bag full of my favorite lip stick, lip gloss, and chapstick. Oh and mace! Gotta be safe, when you are out and about:)
