What's In My Purse

 Happy Halloween!! What are your plans for this evening? Trick-or-Treating, a costume party, or are you like me and moving on to the next season?? {🎄❤️🎅} It's all of a sudden FREEZING here in Starkville- yesterday when I went to Kroger, they had the heat on. I kind of made fun of them for it, but by the afternoon I had turned the heat in my house on too 😂! 

With the changing weather and seasons, I like to switch up which purses I use. I typically carry a big tote bag on a daily basis and switch out to smaller handbags for grocery shopping, dinner, a trip, etc. I pretty much stick to lighter colored bags in the spring and summer and darker colored bags in the fall and winter, though I do have a few that I carry year round. 

Right now, this is the bag I am carrying. I love, love, love my Barrington bags! I think they're so fun and cute. This is the Savannah zippered tote, and it's my favorite out of the two totes of theirs I have. In my big, everyday purse I keep probably way too much- ha! I consider everything to be essential, though 😉.

On either side of the purse are my eyeglasses and sunglasses. My Kindle fits perfectly in that pocket on the side. In the main compartment I keep my wallet, a cosmetic bag for lip sticks, glosses, liners, etc, plus two small pouches from Barrington. Right now I don't have anything in the zipper pocket, but sometimes I'll throw a lotion or something in there. 

In this pouch I keep all "girly" products, lip balms, nail file and clippers, hair clips, medicines, etc. 

And in this one I keep pens, my air pods, lens cleaner, just random things. These pouches keep me super organized- I love them! I love giving them as gifts as well. 

I have been reaching for this crossbody a ton lately. Whether I'm running an errand or simply going somewhere that I don't need my big tote, I like a smaller crossbody. I also like that the long strap can easily be taken off and be carried by the short link strap. In this bag.....

I keep my wallet, car key, a lip gloss or balm, my phone, and a pair of sunglasses. I found my bag here for only $99! My color is not available, but the "chalk pink" is so pretty. (I also found it here on Amazon in several other colors. I'm not sure what color mine is, but I'm thinking either "pink ruby" or "deep hibiscus".)

Have a great Tuesday!

Let's Look: January 2026

 Happy Wednesday!! Let's Look is one of my very favorite blog link ups and after not doing it last year, I am ready for it in 2026! I am linking up with Shay and Erika for this monthly series! Today, we are LOOKING at..... THINGS WE OUTSOURCE WITHOUT REGRET. Ok, there are so many things you can outsource that I just would rather do myself. I love to grocery shop. I think I would be weirded out by someone else doing my laundry. A house keeper is just not something we currently need or really want. BUT, there are occasions when outsourcing is just what needs to be done. Grocery Delivery/Pickup We don't do this often, but when we do it's pretty nice. That being said, I am usually ready to get back in the grocery store myself! Food Delivery This is another one we do not do often, but a Wednesday free delivery from Wingstop has sucked me in a few times 😂. And of course, pizza delivery is always nice! Plus, we can get food delivered to the school I work out, so that's nice e...

Friday Favorites {4.2.26}

 Happy THURSDAY. My days are getting so mixed up with a Friday holiday haha! Posting Friday Faves a day early since tomorrow is Good Friday. Whoop whoop! We're getting a 7Brew!! I'm gonna let the new wear off before I go, but dang I am so excited for this! Have y'all tried it?? My sister gave me this MacKenzie Child's cookie jar for my bday and I love!! I made some white chocolate, peanut, and M&M clusters and they looked so cute in it! I will try just about anything once haha, but I finally jumped on the Tik Tok bandwagon and grabbed this facial brush for lymphatic drainage. My mind could very easily be playing tricks on me, but I'm gonna say I see a difference! Got mind from Amazon! And I cannot close out this post without mentioning Autism Awareness and Acceptance Month! Please, please, please educate yourself on what it means to have Autism, how to explain it to your children, how to advocate, how to include, how to help- all the things!! Please remember, if...

Some Christmas funnies for ya.... 😂😂😂 "Underground Spirit Week" We dress up or do something silly and the students have no idea, so it's constant confusion and laughter! So fun! Monday- PJ day.

My name is Maddie, and I am obsessed with good smelling laundry.... These both smell AMAZING. The Wicked one smells exactly like the perfume I have been wearing- Jo Malone English Pear and Sweet Pea.
