Keep the Change..in a Coin Purse

Written by Maura

So normally I am a “big bag” person. I mean I practically carry a suitcase around with me. As a result, my back normally kills when I get home because I carry a full apartment worth of shit in one monster bag all day long. Granted, normally I am willing to grin and bare it because I like having everything I need at my fingertips, but sometimes I just need to give my poor little shoulders a break. Sometimes, I’m just running up to the corner to get something from the store. Sometimes, I just can’t deny that I don’t need my beastly bag. So I’m going to take a note from Rie, our Japanese pocket size friend here at TheLuxurySpot, and start using smaller bags(although I don’t know if I will ever go as far as having a little coin purse for my USB like she does). I’ve compiled a few options to replace my big bag for those times when you just need a little something. Nordstrom carries a really great bunch of options for us like these two great ones from MARC by Marc Jacobs.
