Today, we will organize your purse, the simple way.  I received this classy handbag for Christmas and just love it! (I took off the gold Guess icon on the strap…a little too ostentatious for me.) It is big enough to hold folders as well as my purse essentials.

This bag was FREE to me but most of my other purses have come from garage sales and the thrift store.  I was just speaking to a friend who found a gorgeous leather Coach bag at her thrift store!!!  I always look at leather items at my local thrift store and have found some wonderful belts, bags, coats, and purses over the years literally saving thousands.

 

What does a lady include in her purse?

 

It is her must-haves and will vary according to your preferences. As you can see, I keep it simple.

 

My must-haves…

sunglasses

blog business cards

wallet

makeup/medicine bag

notebook

pen

 

 

Organize Your Purse The Simple Way

 

Purge     Take everything out of your purse and take a hard look at what you have in there.  This will determine what you need to include as the must-haves.  Throw out all the garbage, gum wrappers, and receipts.

Fill     Load up your makeup/medicine bag up with the things you need.  I carry, lipstick and mascara, essential oils (Here are my “can’t go anywhere without” oils), OnGuard to stay healthy, Peppermint Beadlettes for fresh breath, DigestZen for digestive issues, Jasmine for perfume, and Adaptiv for anxiety!  Also included is a sewing kit, band-aids, a small mirror, comb and bobby pins, and at least one ponytail holder.

Replace      Place your essentials back in your purse and you are all set, well at least until the purse fills up again!

 

 

YOUR TURN…

What are your purse must-haves?
