Over the last six months or so I've transitioned pretty much totally from biggish bags to clutch size ones. If I need to carry more, I toss my clutch into a tote rather than carry a bigger bag. This has meant that I've had to rethink what I really need to carry around. The following items fit into my smallest clutches. The other day I took out a larger clutch--which used to feel small to me--and was amazed at how much room I had!
So here are my necessities:
- makeup bag with powder compact and a lipstick or two
- a minimal wallet, specifically bought to fit into small spaces
- tissues
- a flat little notebook and pen
- sunnies in a little bag, because the case is too big
- and of course my phone
What was I carrying around before? Hard to say but I think I remember an umbrella, sunscreen, a bottle of water, my kindle--oh, lots of stuff. Oh, and an entire pharmacy (I love the feeling of being there for my colleagues) which I now keep in a desk drawer, or in a tote if I'm travelling.
What have you stopped carrying around? What is in your clutch? Pictures enjoyed but not required!
