This week’s What’s in Your Purse Series purse is from Kacey. Thanks!
If you want to submit your purse to the series take two photos of your purse {nice, clean non-blurry ones} one of the outside, one of the inside, along with a listing of the contents to allisonATpetitelefantDOTcom


This purse is a $25-30 JCPenney special that my husband actually spotted while we were out shopping. He picked it up and said, “This looks like something you would like. Do you want it? Let’s get it.” Can’t say no to that! Plus it’s cute, gray, the perfect size, and comfortable to carry. It also happens to have 9 separate compartments/pockets…good thing I just shove everything into the large middle one. How’s that for organization?
Here’s what I’ve been carrying around…
- Giant wad of receipts and old grocery lists. This one is actually quite tame compared to the norm. I run an etsy shop, so I’m always shipping packages. The post office receipts are like a foot long and just end up tangled around the other contents of my purse.
- Silver wallet from Target.
- Movie stub from seeing “I Am Number Four” this weekend…loved it! (Confession: I also found a piece of popcorn from the movie in my purse, but I threw it away. Embarrassing!)
- 2 Chocolates in case I need nutrients while out shopping. Haha.
- A zippered pouch that I won in a blog giveaway. I keep my coupons and other little items in it.
- A Hobby Lobby birthday gift card I got from the hubs last week. (Don’t worry–I already spent 2/3 of it. In fact, I bet the receipt is in that pile…)
- House/mail/car keys.
- Cell phone.
- Mini calculator from the Dollar Store so I don’t have to do math in my head.
- Lip balm. This one happens to be Raspberry Lemonade.
- Peanut granola bar.
- Random assortment of pens…and no pad of paper. Or sometimes I have 3 pads of paper and no pens. Because that’s how I roll.
