Guts! and the last day of NaBloPoMo.

Inspired by Jamie at Oh! How Lovely!, I decided to post my own version of Guts.

Is it just me, or is this super interesting? Maybe I'm easily amused. Anywho.

This is my bag. It's a Coach. I'm not sure what the actual title is, but it's effing big. And I love it. (Please pay no attention to the various Christmas decoration storage boxes behind the purse. Our extra bedroom is something of a catchall at this point.)


Here are Coach's guts.


Left to right:

- a pen. Duh. An obvious necessity.

- Lollia Shea Butter Handcreme. Love that stuff.

- Advil. Just cuz.

- a bunch of wet naps I stole from this BBQ place. Hey, you never know when you'll need one.

- my famous "to buy" Christmas list. Hubs makes me make one every year so we can be organized. He thinks it's cute how I make little check boxes next to the names. I call it "being efficient."

- a crapload of receipts from work and other randomness that need to go into my tax box. Again, efficient. Kinda.



- my huge Coach wallet. Gift from Jen Bun. Thanks Jen Bun!

- keys, complete with "Italia" lariat key chain. I figure, since I'm also Mexican, the colors can go both ways.

- household checkbook in Coach wallet.

- work checkbook in Fluff wallet. So cute!

- Jennifer Weiner's The Guy Not Taken. I love her. This book is kinda random cuz it's a collection of short stories. I'm almost done with it, I'll let you know how it is.

- random notebook for notes and lists and ideas and whatnot.

- Treo Smartphone aka my entire life. Must have.

- super cute earrings from Urban Outfitters. Just in case.

- a stack of my own business cards. I'm really bad about handing these out. I should do it more. I know you can't really see them (for security reasons? I dunno) but they're super cute pink and black and white striped.


Uh oh. The makeup pocket!!!

- mineral face powder. No brand, really, a makeup artist friend of mine sells it.

- M.A.C. "Skew" lipstick. Pink. Love it.

- M.A.C. "Pink Treat" cremestick lipliner.

- M.A.C. "Flowerosophy" lustreglass.

- best. black. eyeliner. ever. Once again, from makeup artist friend.

- "Garnet" lipliner from friend.

- M.A.C. "Elaborate" lipglass. Hmm...looks like I need more.

- "Earth Red" lipliner from friend.

- M.A.C. "Love Nectar" lustreglass.

- Estee Lauder "More than Mascara". It's ok. I think I like DiorShow better.

- "Micro Scarlet" lipstick from friend. GREAT red.

- hoard of bobby pins. Hey, you never know.

Not pictured: Girly products. Nuff said.

Ok ladies...what's in your bag?

o.O i'm reading that book! I love her style but I'm not a huge fan of short stories if only because it always leaves me wanting more, I'm a little over half way done...so i'll be curious to compare notes when you're done :)

You don't have enough room on your blog to list what's in my purse (it's almost as big as a tote bag). I bring everything but the kitchen sink with me. Ha ha

Ok I'm new to the blog and have been reading since like 11 am and it's 2 pm (shut up no I'm not a slow reader I'M AT WORK HELLO) And I'm pretty sure we maaaaaaay have been separated at birth. I'm Mexican (woo woo), have some tatts (more to come, duh), I'm a MAC makeup artist (yup yup shut it you love me and you know this) I TOO love the gays :), and I'm super ridiculously obsessed with purses. And shoes. Louboutins are basically my personal Holy Grail. K thx and PS having to type these funny little letters 'word verification' um...how come it takes me like 3 times to get the word right...
