This week’s video, by request, shows you what is in my handbag. You won’t find anything revolutionary in there, just the daily essentials to go through the day prepared. I love knowing what other people carry in their bags so let me know what you have in your handbag in the comment section below!
The bag I am carrying is a simple leather tote by London Sole (French Sole if you are in the UK).
Here’s what’s in my bag:
Wallet: Louis Vuitton Zippy wallet
Sunglasses: Oliver Peoples

Lip gloss: Urban Decay “naked” and Clinique Black Honey
Sunblock stick
iPhone with Bonjour! case from Anthropologie

Madame Chic Inspiring Thought
If it's been a while, clean out your handbags this week. Throw out all of the crumbs and file away those receipts. Create a serene space in your purse to carry with you throughout the day.
Comment of the week
Virginia Ruth from Well of Encouragement blog writes on Refuse to be Dumbed Down:
One of my favorite quotes that I have tacked on my board by my desk:
"One ought,
Every day at least,
To hear a little song,
Read a good poem,
See a fine picture,
And, if it were possible,
To speak a few reasonable words." ~Goethe
Thank you Jennifer for your words of inspiration and encouragement. I do feel that as a society will settle with the lowest denominator if not challenged. Our brains were made for so much more- to explore, to create, to learn more about the world and the people around us.
Thank you Virginia Ruth... I love that quote!
Artistic Recommendation
Daily Connoisseur reader, Amy, has a film recommendation for us. She writes:
I just watched "Ida" - the wonderful Polish movie that won an Academy Award last week - I think it is brilliant. It's streaming on Netflix.
Thank you Amy! I look forward to checking it out! If you have a recommendation to share with us, always let me know!
See you next time on The Daily Connoisseur... let me know what's in your handbag!
