What's In My Bag + Revlon & ELLE Present The Purse-uit of Power




It's been said a woman's power is in her hair, but I think it's in her handbag. After all, we carry our lives in our bags, be they Birkins or, like me, a mini neon messenger from Old Navy. Right now, I'm into the tiniest of totes as there's something really liberating about traveling light with a hands-free crossbody bag. It fits my Stephanie Johnson wallet in magenta and gold Bollywood print; my iPhone decked out in peach polka dots; and my Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in a fruit-punch pink that's perfect for spring. These are the everyday essentials that power my day.

Now, ELLE and Revlon have partnered to create a designer bag full of the colorful summer essentials that keep you powering through your day, and they're dropping it in mystery locations across the country for a few lucky readers to find!

"Like" Revlon on Facebook for clues and a chance to win a designer bag with all of the must-haves inside worth $3,000. Visit Facebook.com/Revlon for all the details.

totally agree! envious of being able to live with that little... toting the little girl makes it nearly impossible. Even my light-weight tote gets filled to the brim... so heavy in the summer.
