What's in my Purse?!


I've always wanted to do one of these blog posts! I don't carry much though so my bag is much smaller than most bloggers and I have less items. Anyways, I carry a small black leather coach purse that my boyfriend got for my on our trip to Niagara falls in the summer. The outlet mall had reduced prices and was having a one day sale of 30% off! 
 I like this bag because it's nice and small which is just perfect for what I carry. All my other purses in the past were way huge and had too much empty space.

 What I carry on a daily basis (top to bottom):
1. Voss glass water bottle
2. Avon hand lotion
2. Small notebook (paul frank happy meal toy)
3. Tampon
4. My wallet
5. The Body Shop Vitamin E face mist (only in the winter)
6. Jack Black lip balm
7. Two sided mirror with the phrase "Honey you couldn't handle half of me"
8. Hair twist pins
9. My samsung s3 
10. Oil blotting sheets (For the bf, my face isn't that oily)

Sometimes i'll carry an umbrella but that's pretty much it :)

New Years Resolutions

1. No Online Shopping for 100days
I'm not big on instore shopping since i don't like line-up or trying things on so this one's a toughie. I almost broke this already today at work when i was bidding on ebay but I didn't win the bid, therefore i haven't broken the resolution :P...yet

2. Use up all my beauty products before buying new ones. This includes samples
I have waay too many half empty bottles of shampoo, shower gel, and sachet packets from samples. This should save me a lot of money.

3. Plan 1 small date and 1 big date or 3 small dates for dan every month/get him small gifts every month. This is just so i'm a better gf :P

GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE AND THEIR RESOLUTIONS! Also have a safe and happy new year.

TNA Ronne Bomber

My boyfriend bought TNA's Ronne bomber back in 2010 as my christmas present.It's filled with duck down and is relatively warm. I've worn it pretty much daily for the past two winters..I guess three if you include this year and it's still in good shape. I bought my nobis since I wanted a long jacket and didn't want to be cold if I decide to wear a dress out. Anyhoos, here are the pictures!

Front & Back 


The logo is also on the left sleeve as well as an extra pocket and a pen holder? I sometimes keep some spare cash or coins in here. It's a little awkward though reaching across you body to grab stuff in a pocket on your other arm sleeve. I'm sure it's handy for some people, I just haven't discovered an ideal use for it yet. Definatly not a great spot for your cellphone.
 The front upper pockets are also fleece lined like the Nobis. The difference is they're a bit higher on the chest (i think) and it's magnetic closure instead of snaps. I find this so much more convenient!! Why couldn't nobis do that :( snaps are such a hassle to open and close! I don't know what to say about the zipper. It's a basic one way zipper but if you comare the pictures, the Nobis zipper is sturdier.

 The front pocket is also magetic closure <3 a="a" along="along" and="and" because="because" bomber="bomber" but="but" case="case" cellphone="cellphone" fine="fine" fits="fits" i="i" if="if" in="in" is="is" it="it" just="just" keys="keys" lipbalm="lipbalm" my="my" nbsp="nbsp" nobis="nobis" not="not" one="one" p="p" pictured="pictured" pocket.="pocket." probably="probably" s="s" same="same" smaller="smaller" still="still" than="than" the="the" this="this" wanted="wanted" with="with">
  Lastly, the inside pocket can be used to store a music player of your choice with a pouch for the player and the hole fo headphones. I don't care so much for the headphone hole but i would have liked it if the Nobis had that extra mini pouch since sometimes when i'm too lazy to bring a wallet I just keep my drivers license and a credit card in the smaller pocket.

Overall it's a nice jacket. One of my complaints is that while you're walking the back rides up along with whatever you're wearing underneath. Sometimes your back does get exposed and it's chilly. That's another reason why I wanted a long coat. I'm not sure if the CG chilliwack bomber does it too and if I had known I might not have chosen this jacket but it's okay. I've learned to deal with it.

Hope this wasn't too long and that you found it useful :) See you soon!
