I had a bad day at work yesterday and was exhausted, so I didn’t go to the boy’s to watch Project Runway. Since I don’t have Bravo at home, I don’t have a recap today. I promise it will be up tomorrow or later tonight, because the second I can, I am rushing to his house to watch it on DVR!
Also, regarding my last post: If Rihanna and Prince Valiant had a baby that watched way too much Dora the Explorer, it would be Saleisha. That is basically what I concluded from all the comments!
On to the good stuff now. I’m totally copying Michelle with this next thing.
This is my bag. Not the best picture but still. Lovely, isn’t he? Yes, he is a boy and his name is Marc, because he is my first Marc Jacobs bag.

Here are Marc’s guts:

from left to right:
- my life (my planner)
- mirror
- keys
- 2 pens
- Little Fatboye (my iPod)
- my little pink notebook to write thoughts, notes and lists
Next row:
- a ton of change that fell out of my wallet yesterday
- ticket stubs from American Gangster, Enchanted, We Own the Night, the Chicago Film Festival where the boy and I saw Lars and the Real Girl
- gum
- bandaids (sometimes cute shoes hurt!)
- cream of chicken Cup a Soup (only 60 calories!)

also from left to right, everything in my makeup pouch -
- Stussy wallet, which I will use until I get my matching Turnlock wallet (not in my makeup bag, of course)
- CO Bigelow Mentha Lipshine
-CO Bigelow Lip Buffer
-Bare Minerals (which I hate and only use for concealer)
- Carmex
- eye drops
- Philosophy Supernatural Airbrush Canvas foundation
next row:
- Bluefly 10% off coupon that expires tomorrow!
- fold up brush
- Rosebud salve
- Bare Minerals mini kabuki brush
- Motrin
- hair thingys
- Bare Minerals concealer brush
- Full and Soft Mascara
Not pictured: my camera (which I was using to take pictures), my Blackberry Pearl (charging) and all my girly products no one probably wants to see!
What’s in your bag, ladies?

Your day planner is so adorable, I just want to pinch its cheeks. And Marc is just a hunk. I wish he had a cousin for you to set me up in! :p

LOVE that purse!
This is a cute idea…my purse is such a mess right now it would probably take me all day to talk about everything in it. I need to downsize…when I have a big purse, I put pretty much everything in it.

Oooh Marc is so handsome! I love it. My own purse is pretty pathetic right now. I recently switched and somehow left out a billion things, so now I’m constantly wondering where my stuff is. My purse needs a makeover.

Heh…my iPod shuffle is called Big Poppa. I like Little Fatboye better, I’m jealous.
Can we discuss the glorious wonder that is CO Bigelow’s Mentha Lipshine? I just discovered it and I am in lurve.
I am afraid to clean out my purse and find what lurks within. You’re a brave girl.

Yay for purse spillage. You really went one more step by showing us the contents of your makeup bag as well!

Dude. LURVE the bag. It’s awesome! And I love that you’ve named it. I also love that you’ve named your iPod. And I love Orbit gum.
Where’s the Dior mascara?

i love love love rosebud salve. it has saved my lips and cuticles in chicago winters past. oh and i don’t know if you know this, but if your lips turn red from drinking too much red wine, rub a bit of it on them, wipe off with a tissue and you are good to go. fantastic isn’t it?

Clearly I need a new bag- because I’ve taken my big black oh so functional and did I mention big bag everywhere for like the past year. And then I saw this thing on Rachael Ray’s talk show where a lab technician swabbed the bottoms of women’s purses and there was SO MUCH disgusting bacteria on them (like E.coli), because of how women never think and just put their purses everywhere (I totally do this). Sick.
What? This isn’t what your post was about? Sorry, haha. I love the post idea though (loved Michelle’s too) and will probably do it soon. This will be like an “almost meme” as we all start to do it.

I think that your hatred of BE makes you nuts! I am stunned. Though I’d like to try Supernatural.
I did my post a few months ago–check it out!

Your Cup a Soup made me laugh out loud.
I have a purse with pretty standard contents. The new addition is a reusable water bottle, since I’m trying to drink more H2O.

I clicked submit too fast. Where did you get your planner? I need a planner. I keep attempting the whole planner/organization thing, and failing miserably. Maybe this is the year to try it again!
