FAVORITE THINGS FEBRUARY: EVERYDAY vs DATE NIGHT BAGS

On Valentine's Day, for the first time in about six years, the husband and I went out on a date, just the two of us (thank you most wonderful in-laws!). It was snowing and cold, but dinner was fantastic and the company divine.

 

I switched bags for our night out and realized that there is a slight difference in my everyday vs date night life. Observe my favorite things from both:

 



 

 

Clockwise, from left: Bag: Tory Burch York Buckle Tote  A bit pricey, but I only buy one purse about every 7 years. I splurge on quality and use it everyday.//Lotion: Bath and Body Works Shea Cashmere Hand Cream The scent is amazing, and it truly helps my dry skin, hand sanitizer because, it's a must with kids, Burt's Bees Lip Balm with Mango Butter Also smells amazing and really helps with dryness. (I have dry skin. And so do the kids. So moisturizing products are high on my list.), random little girl hair clip because her hair is always always in her eyes, tissues, Rapunzel Mini Tin This is an amazing toy. It's a slim metal box box (the size of a note pad) with an image of Rapunzel on it and magnetic dress up clothes. Ava plays with it when ever she gets stuck some where with me (the vet, Dylan's guitar lesson). It's a perfect size and nothing gets lost because it's all STUCK on, Priority Mail envelopes for shipping items from the shop, notepad and pen, Sunglasses (prescription),  Altoids (wintergreen), Phone with Rifle Paper Company cover (mine seems to be no longer available, but this one is similar), small mirror, water (usually reusable bottle but I grabbed this on the go), wallet (gift from the kids), coupon holder (Target, I use it for receipts), keys.

And Date Night:
