My 5 (not so scary) Tips for Downsizing Your Bag!!! 

I love your tips. One of my tips is that you can always put a small bag inside your car for things like first aid items if you panic at the thought of not having them. I'm a mom of 3 and we have injuries and accidents, I used to fret about going smaller until a friend clued me into that tip. I usually just put all the extras in a insulated lunch style bag so it's there if I need anything. That way you have your items but don't have to lug them around....great video. I am a handbag junkie lol

💝💖💕❤️It is true about weight in bags that’s why I change my bag constantly. Thanks for sharing 😊👍🏼👍🏼

I got the PopWallet from PopSocket so I keep my credit cards, license, etc, on the back of my phone with one bill. And for rewards cards I downloaded an app to keep all of them on my phone. You just scan your phone and go!

Packable/collapsible bags (pouches or the bag itself) minimize bulk/weight tremendously. Also work great when traveling as an extra bag to bring home items you bought during your trip! Also, my favorite notebook/pads are Moleskine Cahier Journals (I use the 5x8.25” Ruled version) because they’re soft, super flexible, open completely flat, and most importantly, have a stitched binding! They’re a great alternative to hardcover planners, even spiral notebooks with plastic covers you don’t want to bend. The 5x8.25” is perfect for notes or planning and overall the Cahier style slips into coat/bag pockets really easily!

I just got the lug minuet wallet from a thrift shop and I think its great, got a slot for 8 cards and cash and a generous coin zip whilst still remaining flat ( which is a plus for me since I carry a lot of coins for pool tables) and still want it to not take up a lot of room I'm my bag

what you explained at the beginning is EXACTLY what happened to me, its a hard habit to break and I still need to get over the anxiety of both having everything I could possibly need for any given situation however my back is paying for it and I'm not even 30 yet.

Great tips love a lighter load. Thank you gor sharing. Love your energy.

This video is perfect timing! I have had lower back issues and I really need to downsize my purse! Thank you!

Ziplock bags make great pouches. They lock, they are transparent so you can see what is inside, and you can fold any of the plastic around the contents. Two or three of them can take up the same amount of space that a pouch takes up.

Great tips! Just wanted to add, not all sunscreen is photostable. When putting sunscreen in a new container it is best to use something that is opaque. Exposure to light could degrade some sunscreen and decrease efficacy. Stay safe!

I call my backpack the war bag. I am dealing with a rotator cuff issue and need to lightening up my bag but i take public transit. I will need a second bag for winter gear. I also REFUSE to leave the house without water. I was in an emergency room with covid and was denied water for over 6 hours. Sunglasses year found are a must. Im so confused what ro buy.

Yaaaasss Girl!!!!! I love this video! And 100% on board for the fabfitfun unboxing!!!!

I am so in love with those earrings oh my goodness where did you get them and girlfriend I love that wallet

Def get the Kindle! I’m still loving mine 😍😍

❤️

All my cards are stored digitally and my hand sanitiser and lip balm are both in keychain holders on the outside of my bag

I used to carry a big handbag on my walking frame until I went shopping and realised its a pain trying to balance shopping on a frame with a handbag. So I downsized to a little wristlet bag which I hang on the handle bar. I've done alot of customising on my walking frame to make it easier to use. However I got stopped in a shop for using my walking frame as a shopping trolley. So it's back to the drawing board to work out how to keep all my needs and balance a see through basket on the seat on the frame. So far I've not had a solution as the basket keeps falling off.

They have apps that you can place all of those store cards, credit cards and other cards, medical etc.

Yes if you like books, you NEED to buy a small simple Kindle! It’s great!

Hi Erica! I posted over on the last video this week about the mini cross body bags being back in stock...didn’t know if you saw it. I am living the downsizing and I find the mini is really a stretch for me but I weeded down a lot and am making it work. A couple things I do: the app CardStar holds all your store reward cards and frees up the keys. I love it. I use the kindle app on my phone to save from carrying books. I’m using light weight pouches. I got the PLG eclipse makeup bag but it’s a little too much with my checkbook wallet which I really love so I am using a Vera Bradley soft fabric pouch and it’s working great. Loved this video girl and would also enjoy the fit box unboxing. 👍😀

What color is the mini crossbody tote in the picture for this video?
