The Accidental Meme: Girlie Pouch Contents
It all began with Ee-Lyn helping me out the other day.
I was marveling at her girlie pouch preparedness and had decided that I would make it a point to assemble one myself. I passed by a travel shop, spent $9 on a pouch and started narrowing down what I'd need to take with me.
Here is what I now carry with me everywhere:
- Oil blotters -
- Female monthly essentials
- Pocket mirror (for spinach in teeth moments)
- 1GB USB thumb drive
- Double headphone jack
- Combination lock for gym use
- Inhaler
- Multi-tool (for any form of emergency)
- Nokia Bluetooth headset
- Eclat D'arpege mini perfume
- Becca cheek tint
- Lip Ice & Burt's Bees balms
- Lavendar & Orange badger balm (in case of blisters or chafing)
- Body Shop eyeshadow
- Benefit mini eyeliner
- Tweezer
- Painkillers & anti-inflammatories
I'm quite excited about being prepared for any situation now. And it's all thanks to Ee-Lyn too :)
The funny thing is I've told a few friends about this and apparently they ALL already have girlie pouches. So they decided to share their contents too! It's becoming a meme - Haha! Here are Mel's and Faz's.
Some of my other friends have also posted their's on Twitter - We're now at 5 or 6 and counting! Even the dudes are tempted to show us the contents of their manbags. Haha!
Very amused. Although I am getting a lot of grief for carrying a multi-tool around....
Gracie's comment cracked me up:
why in the world do you need a multi-tool in your pouch??? are your eyebrows THAT stubborn?
LOL!
So go on then, what's in your's? (Post it and share your link with me, please!)

i haven’t got one (girl pouch) and honestly i think i’m too lazy to assemble it! I just take note of what i might need for the next day and lop it into my handbag the night before. And when i need it, i do the digging thing, ploughing through the contents to find the elusive lip balm, or hair pin.

hey! are you wearing eyeliner now?!
I don’t have a pouch either! Only girly things i have in my bag are lip balm, hand cream and bodyshop sample perfume. Non-girly things that i transfer with bag changes are keys, ipod, phone and wallet. Don’t need to encourage the yellow fever. hehehe.
