What I Keep in my Everyday Bag…

I treat my everyday tote as my one-stop shop for anything I might need during the day. Most days I leave my apartment early in the morning and don’t get to return until dinner time, or later. I can’t afford to run back home if I forget something, so I keep all the essentials in my bag, that way I never forget anything!

The Staples:

Blank Journal & Weekly Planner

  • I keep my weekly planner in my bag so that if anything pops up I can check what I have planned for the day and keep track of my meetings or events!

  • A blank journal has become a staple for me. Anytime I need to jot a few notes down or think of something, I can reach for my notebook to write it down. I often find writing things out allows me to let go of them instead of holding them in my mind all day, which adds greatly to my anxiety.

Laptop & Phone

  • No explanation necessary…. (pro tip: carry chargers with you if you know it’s gonna be a long day)

Mini Pouch:

  • I have a mini pouch in my tote that has tampons (don’t say ew), a checkbook (I’ve never written a check before), hair ties & a hair clip, a mini mascara & perfume, and some mints!

Pencil Bag:

  • Pencil bags are not just for kids….I always bring a mini pencil bag with a few pens and highlighters, along with a sticky notepad

Keys, Wallet, and Lip Balm!

  • The essentials!
