In My Holiday Clutch
I spend hours (no joke) getting ready for a party. For me, there’s something so therapeutic about primping and when I look my best, I feel my best. It’s inevitable that my makeup will wear off as time goes by, so I have a few essentials in my clutch to make sure all my effort won’t go to waste.
- Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray: I hate flat party hair and this convenient travel size makes it easy for me to bring back life into my hair. I admit, it’s pricey, but it smells divine and works great.
- Rebecca Minkoff Molly Metro Wallet: Sometimes I’m too lazy to pick out my essential credit cards and this wallet is small enough for me to grab from my daily purse to my clutch.
- YSL Mirror: I ALWAYS need a mirror and I’m loving this mirror I got from a free gift with purchase.
- theBalm Read My Lips in Snap!: One swipe of this lip gloss and I seriously, fell in love. No matter what lip color I’m wearing that night, I like to have a nude lip gloss as a back up, just in case I don’t want to fuss over my lip color.
- YSL Dessin du Regard Eye Pencil: Waterproof or not, my eyeliner fades – especially in my waterline! Gotta have an eyeliner to fix that up.
- MUFE Duo Mat Powder Foundation #207: I get particularly oily in the T-Zone and my foundation tends to fade in that area. I’ve used this powder for a while now and I love that it gives me extra coverage and keeps me matte at the same time.
- Altoids: Yes to fresh breath. 🙂
- Sephora Cream Lip Stain in #01: Another option to have if I want to switch up my look and this one lasts foreverrrrr on the lip.
- Jo Malone Blackberry and Bay: So addicted that I bought the full size version.
- Aquaphor: Nothing moisturizes my lips better.
- Marc Jacobs Clutch

Try getting the travel size first! I found it hard to spend that much money on the larger one too until I knew I really really liked it. xx
Love your wallet! I’m a huge Rebecca Minkoff fan 🙂
