Holiday lines are long and once you've lugged your kids to the counter, the last thing you need is to fumble for your wallet.
Since I usually have my son on my hip and my daughter by my side, I traded my big, bulky wallet for a snap-closure coin purse. It's just the right size to fit the essentials — my ATM and credit cards, spare change, and cash. And, I can open it with one hand in a pinch.
Sometimes when I go out I don't want to carry around a bag, or even a clutch. 'Tis true. Especially if I'm just taking Annabelle for a stroll. I love this American Apparel lamé coin purse, $8, because it has a key ring to hold your house key plus a pouch to hold your I.D. and some money (and maybe even a lip gloss). And, it comes in these great metallic shades, that are totally hot for a night out. Okay, I'll be honest: I think it's totally appropriate for day, too. Just because it's that Fab.
I need a new gym bag. Mine are just not cutting it these days, they are either too big or too small so I need something in the middle. In my search I came across some cute Nike bags that I think are definitely worth sharing.
The Lima No-Flap Bag ($35.00) is a bit smaller (14" x 12" x 3") but will still get the job done. This bag has a zippered large main compartment, exterior side and end pockets for additional storage and a removable coin purse, which would be a perfect place for your gym membership card and bus pass. You can buy it from Dick's Sporting Goods.
