A few months ago, I shared a peek into the essentials I carry in my purse. I let you in on the everyday must-haves that keep me grounded and prepared. 

Today, I thought I’d open up my workbag and show you the daily work bag essentials I can’t leave home without. 

After all, being organized isn’t just about our homes. It extends to every part of our lives, and having an organized workbag is no exception. 

Keeping a tidy bag is more than just a habit; it’s an extension of managing our daily routines efficiently. 

I’m sure we can all agree that in a world where every minute counts, having everything in its place in the morning can make all the difference.

Organization on the go is a silent life-saver.

Let’s face it, with our busy lives, especially when juggling between home chores, career meetings, and perhaps a kid’s recital or two, we rarely pause to think about the condition of our work purse. 

But I promise you, just a little bit of attention here can ensure you’re always on top of your game. 

And the best part? You get ready faster and, more importantly, with a clearer mind.

Here are the staples that make it into my bag every single day:

Planner: I’ve always been the kind of person who thrives on writing things down.

My planner isn’t just about appointments; it’s my little world of tasks, inspirations, and reminders. It’s my visual roadmap.

Compact Card Wallet: This compact gem is so versatile. 

These days we don’t really need a big chunky wallet since everything we really need is on our phones. For this reason, I carry a compact card wallet instead. 

The separate zipper compartment is perfect for those quick access items such as coins and receipts and the slim compact size allows you to only bring what’s necessary. Minimal and effective, without a bunch of irrelevant membership cards and credit cards.

Power Bank: We’ve all faced that moment when our phone’s battery runs low during crucial times. 

With my power bank always close to me, I make sure that I can stay connected and never miss out, whether it’s an important call or a timely update.

LeSportsac Cosmetic Bag: Beyond just cosmetics, this bag serves as a practical toolkit for my day. 

It houses essentials like medication for unforeseen headaches, a hair tie for those windy days, and band-aids for minor mishaps. Plus, having another C-plug in there has proven invaluable on numerous occasions.

Lip Balm: Dry lips are a no-go for me. Keeping a lip balm ensures I’m always comfortable, my lips stay moisturized and I remain at my best.

Reusable Water Bottle: Stay hydrated, stay fresh. And, of course, it’s a small step towards being more environmentally conscious.

Sunglasses: Whether it’s shielding my eyes from the sun or adding a touch of style to my outfit, my favorite pair of sunglasses never leaves my side.

You might think there’s ample space left in my bag. 

And you’re right! But remember, I need that space… for when I decide to tote my puppies around (just kidding, or am I?).

So, what about you?

Our bags tell a story about us. They carry our daily tools, our secrets, and sometimes, even our aspirations. 

So, what are your purse essentials? What are the things that you simply can’t do without in your daily work bag or work purse?

Share your list and let’s inspire each other to be ever ready!

And share the Love!
