what's in my bag?

I always think it's interesting to know what other girls just can't leave the house without, so I thought I'd share some of my "must-haves" with you today!

1. Favorite phone case - I'm obsessed with all Sonix cases. I love this one because you can still see my gold phone through the case, but it's still protective!
2. Little wallet - I recently downsized my wallet and it was the best decision of my life. I typically carry small crossbody bags and having a big wallet just wasn't working for me. (This wallet also just got marked down!). It's small but still holds everything I need it to, and forces me to stay organized!
3. Fresh nude lip color - I literally cannot live without this stuff. It feels so good on your lips, it's hydrating, and gives you that perfect summer nude lip color. I wear it everywhere from the grocery store, to work meetings to lunch with the girls. (I also wear it to the pool because it has SPF in it!)
4. Dior Addict gloss - another favorite lip color. I have it in the "angelique" color which is also pretty nude, but it has just the remind amount of gloss to it. It looks natural, but still feminine.
5. Obviously sunnies (not pictured). I'm currently obsessed with Ditto.com which is an endless eyewear subscription. Unlimited sunglasses that you can swap out for $19/month. Use the code "laurenkaysims" to get your first month free!

Rebecca Minkoff at CUSP.

I think (aka I am positive) that Rebecca Minkoff is one of the top tier designers for us girls in our 20′s to adorable moms in their 50′s. Why is this? Her designs are beyond extraordinary and the price point is so reasonable. Buyer’s remorse is impossible with her exquisitely fun bags (talk about a brilliant birthday gift), runway worthy shoes, and statement ensembles (you’re bound to look fabulous).All of the above declarations are most definitely the reasons we adore this lovely designer from afar, but many of us had the privilege of getting to chat with Rebecca Wednesday night at CUSP in Neiman Marcus Northpark. The post-event conclusions: all we can say is she is a doll + what a fabulous event filled with the cutest cake balls, pretty cocktails, and on-site monogramming.P.S. Loved wearing the Rebecca Minkoff Kirk dress!! Check it out here.

Your Next Partner in Crime: The Jerome Dreyfuss Tote

I spy something pretty and leopard. Yes, it's a new handbag by the emerging Jerome Dreyfuss (where have you been all of our lives?). Just imagine walking to an office meeting with this lovely carry all. Business appointments just got bumped up a few notches on the exciting train. Can you picture a lunch extravaganza with this match-with-any-outfit tote? A mid-day meal never looked so good.How can you resist this leopard print pony hair small tote? More dreamy details: Gold-tone hardware, top snap closure and side zips for expansion. Is it just me, or is there something about compartments that makes a bag worth buying? More on the inside scoop: it has a cotton lined interior with zipper pocket and a detachable leather key fob with compact brass-tone flashlight attached (how handy!). Buy this dose of luxury at Net-a-Porter. Here's the purchase link. Swoon.
