Purge Your Purse

Don't become a bag hag; be practical and fashionable by periodically editing your portable rescue-kit down to a few items that will ensure your survival in the urban wilderness. 

You probably have two or three bags that you use on a regular basis - mix it up every once in a while. Using a new purse means transferring the contents of your bag, which will force you to account for each item. If you haven't used something in three days, chances are you don't need to tote it around: purge it.

Purge your purse
Challenge yourself and look stylish by carrying a compact clutch - you will have to edit down to must-have items only. Trust me, you'll survive.
 
Invest in a handheld PDA (Personal Digital Assistant). It's the closest most of us will ever come to having a personal assistant.  These powerful multi-tasking devices will replace your day-timer, phone book, notepad, and to-do lists; some models also function as cell phones, cameras, mp3 players and mini-computers with wireless internet access! All this, literally in the palm of your hand.
 

Consolidate your make-up. You don't need to carry a cosmetics counter in your handbag to be beautiful. Purchase long-wearing, lightweight products that can multi-task when you're on the go. You shouldn't need much more than these basics on most days:
 
•  Compact Foundation: Cream-to-powder finish foundation & concealer combinations are a godsend. As an added bonus, many come with supplemental sunscreen built-in. DiorSkin Eclat Doux - Compact Foundation SPF 20  ($38.50)
 
•  Luscious Lips: You can wear one lipstick with everything and everywhere if it matches your coloring and is neutral enough. Try carrying only one tube of lipstick, either your basic stand-by or a more intense shade for a special look. There are also plenty of 2-in-1 lipstick-blush combinations to choose from such as The Multiple from NARS ($30) and Multiple Rush from LORAC ($20).
 
•  Glow, don't shine! Slip in a tiny pack of oil-absorbing face-blotting tissues for touch-ups throughout the day. Face Blotting Tissues from Bloom ($8)
 
•  Nothing freshens your face and opens your eye like a bit of mascara. For eye touch-ups, try a two-in-one mascara liquid liner combination such as Convertible Lash & Line by Stila ($20)
