I am really on the hunt for a ‘Mom’ bag.  my diaper bag is overflowing these days – even more so now than when I carried a zillion diapers and changes of clothing for fear of a baby blow out.  snacks, books, {panties}, sippy cups, mini forks and spoons {I always have a set of these for some reason..}, books, toys.. the bag hardly fits over my shoulder – and when a tiny hand(s) reaches up to hold your own, and the mega-bag comes tumbling down, you think twice about that lean.  MK has amazing and spacious totes, but the hubby pretty much vetoes me out of every one due to the price tag.  doesn’t stop this wifey from adding it to her list.  any of you ladies have a ‘mom’ bag recommendation??  

throw and go.  I have a bag for I use everyday for work, my purse, and then there is the diaper bag.  so I usually have some kind of small clutch or my wallet to just throw in there and and go.. I need an upgrade.  my phone doesn’t usually fit into the clutch very well because my wallet isn’t exactly tiny, and then you add in a couple tubs of lip gloss –  at least 3 times while we are out and about I’m requesting for Jordan to call my cell phone because I’ve lost it in the mega bag.  I need an all-in-one.

I wear socks all year round.  I have a weird thing about my feet – they are my least favorite part of my body (if you got a close up you would understand), and socks keep this anxiety about them at bay.  During the summer I stick with the thinest ankle socks I can find (I usually get them in all sorts of fun colors and designs for like a buck at Target), but in the winter there is all the more reason to bundle up.  OFTEN – and I mean always and forever – I steal Jordan’s hunting socks (they are huge, thick, stay up about my legs, and most importantly, keep my toes toasty), and OFTEN – and I mean always and forever – I run holes into them.  Slippers are bulky, but I have a pair that I love love love (I got them off GroopDealz last winter), but they don’t stay on my feet very long because I don’t feel comfortable laying around in them.  They are too much like shoes to me.  I found these slipper socks that I am dying for this season!  They would be perfect for wearing over my favorite pair of leggings, and flexible enough to be comfortable in on the couch tucked under my legs.

I have Urban Decay Naked 2, and LOVE it, and the newest pallet has the perfect fall colors – warm golds and rose.  really, I wear those colors all year round.. but they are most beautiful in the fall.  makeup (and jewelry) is always the perfect gift for me – so I usually try and include something of my favorites for lists like these.
