"Show us what's in your bag."

*  Since my friends Maldita and preciousrain are doing it, I decided I'm gonna blog this too.  ;)

I have tons of bags as I have shoes.  I change bags depending on my mood AND my outfit.  Guilty as charged!  I am one of `em mix & match type of girls.  And yes, I firmly believe that accessories can do wonders to your outfit. 

Lately, I have been using this black bag I bought from Bayo.  I fondly call it my "school bag" since I use this more often than the others bags I have. 

Bag of the Moment [v.1]

It's black and is made from faux leather.  It's cute with its gold zippers, VERY fasyon!  One of the reasons I bought it was because of it's size (BIG bags are love!) and its many compartments and pockets.  Perfect for my storing my loot, which include the ff:

• My faux black leather crocodile-skinned FINO wallet
• Current book I read when/if I'm bored:  Connected:  A Global Approach on Managing Complexity
• A fabulous teNeues Magneto blank book (read: diary) in Mod Pink Disco Girl design
• A purple sign pen
  
• My Php50 brown shades from Greenhills
  
• Unpaid statements (usually overdue CC bills)
• A pack of Marlboro lights ciggies and a double flame lighter (Burberry design)
• My company ID
• 2 Cellphones:  a dilapidated Siemens A65 (company use) and my 2 year old Nokia 7610 (personal phone)
• My house keys on a plastic starfish-seashell-seahorse keychain
• A metallic pink compact mirror from Beauty Bar
  
• And finally, my bare essentials:  
• Bath and Body Works anti-bacterial moisturizing hand lotion (Sweet Pea scent)
• Johnson's baby bedtime lotion (Lavender and Chamomile scent)
• The Body Shop Eau de Toilette (Moonflower scent)
• The Body Shop black beauty bag with:  All in one face base, brush-on bronze, shimmer smudger in Aqua Dewdrop, ultra smooth liquid concealer, eye & cheek palette, lip & cheek tint (all from The Body Shop!), gold shimmer shadow by Pout, DuWOp Venom Gloss, tweezers by Lacross.
  

I know, i know... you must be thinking I have so much stuff it's crazy!  Seriously, I often wonder how other girls manage to fit all of their stuff in those small bags.  But I know one thing's for sure, I can't and will not go out unprepared and with a teeny weeny little purse.  No, I'm not a girl scout, but I just don't like being caught offguard, ya dig?  GOOD.
