What’s in My Bag? I love love love love the feeling of cleaning out my old purse and switching over to a new bag. This past week I got this super cute purse, courtesy of Ruche. Here’s what’s in my bag…. the current issue of Marie Claire, faux glasses, keys, owl coin purse, nail polish, lip balm, pen, gum, my sketchbook, passport (misplaced my id recently and have been carrying that until i have time to get a new one), vintage bangles, iPhone, headphones and flip cam (courtesy of Shape What’s To Come).
I’m building new displays in the shop today and Emma’s working on wedding stuff. So happy to have a second half in life… especially during these crazy times. XXO, Elsie

Cute! I carry tons of random stuff just like you do 😉 And I have three different packs of gum at the moment! hehe
Love and Turtledoves,

Love that lil owl purse 😀
I love it! Such a perfect snapshot of who you are, where you’ve been, and where you are headed! Beautifully captured!
In the middle of wedding plans myself (which we call “wedding bells”), so I understand completely the busy-ness of life. But you know what they say, “if you want something done, give it to a busy person”.
All the best, dear girl. xo
I’ve been toting around my passport for two weeks now for the same reason. haha
Hi Elsie! Great bag!
I just dropped in to let you know I posted about your lovely flower crown on my blog!

Such a cute purse! I love the feeling too, especially when you can get your wallet out of your purse without having to mumble apologies as the people in line behind you groan and moan. :]

That bag is adorable! I love What’s In My Bag posts.
I love that purse. I want one! I love the owl change purse too…where did you get that?
I love it! What a fun peek into what you carry!
I loved that purse the second I saw it on Ruche!
Ooooh – love your bag!! 🙂
Love the new purse! SO cute!
Love the bag! My bag consists of snacks for the little one, wipes and of course my phone and wallet…nothing too interesting! Hope you’re enjoying your day!

This is so cute! I carry a lot of similar stuff in my bag too. Plus the bag is gorgeous as well.

Just discovered your blog today. I’m reading for the past 3 hours! hehe
Love “Whats in the bag” posts! 😀
…that owl coin purse is so cute!!!
Gorgeous bag, I want one! Although I’ve just about got out of the habit of carrying one (mostly I’m lugging a giant camera roller case around instead!) – but I might have to go back to it for this!
Love love love!
Love the eclectic array of items in your purse! So fun to actually see everything that we have in our purses. Mine has a bunch of junk. Not worthy of blogging about

I know you can’t really see it in these pictures, but where did you get your iPhone cover? I’ve been looking online for something cute but I can’t find anything anywhereee. Thanks!
love getting sneak peaks into your life.
Thanks for sharing.

I love these posts! I don’t usually carry a purse or a bag unless I’m traveling. I love your new purse too. Beautiful!

I agree with above, why do we love these kinds of posts so much? Us crazy women. And I have a bag, not from Ruche though, that looks almost exactly the same!
And I have to say, your purse is quite clean. Mine tends to get cluttered with all manner of strange, unidentifiable bits and bobs. Though it does help when I switch purses.
Honestly, a purse is one’s *life*. 😉
I love mushy leather bags like that one! Haha. They always seem to hold everything you need, and look even better when they are full!
I love the things in your purse and the purse amazingly cute.

Oh my goodness, I absolutely adore your bag. Distressed brown leather is probably my favorite kind of purse. Gorgeous! (as usual 😛 )
Love bag and belongings 🙂

I totally carry my passport because I also misplaced my State i.d. Haha. I kind of like carrying my passport instead now, I feel more chic. 😉

Lovely bag and lovely contents inside it!
This is an amzing place 😀 can’t believe haven’t found this earlier
That owl coin purse is pretty fantastic.
I’m considering getting this bag as well – is it large enough to slide a 13” Mac into by any chance?
that bag and all your goodies are sooo soo pretty!
I enjoy reading your posts.:)And that bag is so adorable. You have such great taste.
i love seeing what’s in your bag! i don’t think the contents of mine are nearly as cool. 🙂
I also love the feeling of cleaning out a bag and placing the contents in a new one!

One I first glanced at this photo and saw the past passport I immediately wondered where you were going. Ha! Lovely satchel.
I love this idea! I fell in love with that bag the second I saw your post and swooped one up for myself. Thanks for the inspiration.
I love, love, love what’s in my bag posts! So cool to see what everyone’s got going on in there…I recently did one myself, inspired by the Janis Joplin article online – you should check it out!

Elsie, I LOVE your photographs! Your blog has become one of my absolute faves to read. As a fellow thrifter, you might like the little red typewriter I blogged today. Will give you an idea of some of the thrifting in South Africa if you’re ever interested x
Thanks for all the kind comments!! Truly makes my day.
Connie, I think the laptop would fit, but you’d better double check the measurements to be sure!
XO, elsie
Where are you going with that passport
Love your new bag – they’re all sold out now!

I noticed that a day never goes by that you don’t bring your eyeglasses and nail polish with you. =) Well, my day’s never complete without my phone and my journal. I always need my phone for my small business, and I need my journal so I can write my ideas wherever I go.
