Ok first of all I have to brag about what my handbag IS since it's a briefcase-shaped leather Coach handbag which I am still SUPER smug about getting for $50 at a consignment store. Oh god y'all, if I had the money I would own so many designer purses. It's like the grossest most pointless consumer thing to be into yet I'm SO INTO IT. Luckily I'll never have the cash to spend hundreds of dollars on purses and thus will never have to shame my ancestors by doing so.
Anyway, this is the bag that I bring to work every day because even though it's designed to hold like, folders and briefcases and shit, it's huge and boxy and can stretch to fit anything, including my laptop. Right now it's got my glasses case, my homestuck hat with Terezi's symbol on it that I got in dragoncon (downside: the hat has anime cat ears, upside: it's so cute and warm that I wear it in public anyway), an umbrella, a letter from my old job that was stuck in there and never sent. Various paper detritus and bills that I need to call about. A Tide pen. Scattered lipsticks and sample perfume bottles. Tampons. Cuticle cream. An iPhone charger cord. A comb. A small notebook. Various bags of tea and emergen-c, from the days of being sick and taking tea to work with me. And my checkbook.
....wow, I always thought of myself as someone who traveled really light. /o\
