What's In My Bag

♥

I've been asked so many times for What's In Your Bag posts and I've done a half-hearted one in with a bag review and maybe one more a long time ago with just one quick photo but never a real honest-to-goodness one showing everything in my bag. And I probably wouldn't have if a few blogger friends of mine hadn't suggested several of us doing one. So...for what it's worth for anyone who cares what's in there, here ya go!


First, this is the bag I'm carrying today. It's my all-time favorite bag - Hermès Evelyne PM (or MM now I can't even remember) Chartreuse Clemence with PWH.  But what's in my bag rarely changes because I just transfer all my SLGs (Small Leather Goods) from one bag to another as the mood or occasion dictates. Some days they're all in Hermès and some days they're in a canvas bag I hand-painted myself.

And you've gotten me on a good day - there are no broken Milkbones floating around in there - or doggie clean up bags. <grin>

And the contents...

Karo GM Quetsche Chevre - by Hermès

Moleskine notepad, Hermès Post-It-Note holder,
hand lotion, nail file and mirror

Karo PM in Vert Anis Chevre - by Hermès

Yes, that's a lil sonic screwdriver! Keys, keys and more keys

----------------------------------------------------

Rose Shocking Chevre Piccolo by Hermès

Pens, spare lip stick and liner (which I need to toss
because I don't use a liner anymore)

-----------------------------------

Envelope pouch by Tusk...

Receipts, passport, spare check and mad money

-------------------------------------------

Silicone pouch - cheapie from Walmart...

Colgate Wisp, my old-age reading glasses, lipstick, mints
Excedrin/Advil and Glasses Wipes

--------------------------------------------

Wallet in Ultra Violet by Coach...

-------------------------------------------------

Business cards case by Baekgaard...

---------------------------------------------

Sunglasses in a hand-painted pouch I did...

-------------------------------------------

Of course my phone!

------------------------------------------------

Here's what's on my bag...a lovely birthday gift from one of the sweetest ladies ever: Hermes Barenia Horse Hair Tassel

----------------------------------

And she's stuffed!

Rabeanco Bonham II Handbag - Photos and Review

Press Sample 

Product Provided for my Honest Review

This is Not a "Paid Endorsement"

♥

I know Mondays have a bad connotation for a lot of people, I've been one of those people in the past, but now I really enjoy Mondays and getting back to my routine. We usually take the boat out on Mondays if the weather permits and today it finally cooperated! I've been wanting to show you my new Rabeanco Bonham II handbag for a while, but here in usually sunny, usually drought-stricken South Texas, it's been rainy! I'm not complaining, mind you. I wish it would rain every day. But I was finally able to get some photos of this bag for you.

Rabeanco Bonham II

Rabeanco Bonham II

Rabeanco Bonham II

First, this is my FAVORITE color. It's a very saturated violet (called magenta on the Rabeanco site) that really goes with so much of my wardrobe. You can dress it up or down and it holds a TON.

Here's what Rabeanco had to say about the Bonham II:

This satchel's bold architectural lines are eloquently balanced by the softness the smooth leather conveys. Antique brass hardware, hand painted edges and elongated zipper tabs accentuate the visual appearance that makes this bag distinctive. Even the front zipper pocket, ideal for essentials, was hidden to ensure functionality did not disrupt the Bonham's aesthetic look. The detachable shoulder strap adds the versatility to use this satchel as a cross-body bag.

Dimensions: 14.75" (L) x 1" (W) x 14.5" (H)
