Blogger Essentials: What’s in My Bag + New Shades

Blogger Essentials: What’s in My Bag + New Shades

As a blogger there’s a few things you need to have especially around fashion week, camera, phone charger, biz cards, stamina, and a good attitude. It can be really exhausting! Tonight I’m meeting Lauren at the WMCFW tents to attend the VAWK show together.

In my purse you’ll find ALL these things:

  • Canon Digital SLR – mine is Rebel SL1
  • GoPro camera
  • Boxed water – gotta stay hydrated!
  • Sunglasses – never leave home without them! How amazing are these bright orange ones!?!? They’re from Polette Eyewear in France. See more about my partnership with them HERE.
  • Packet of Dermalogica PreCleanse wipes – on the go makeup fix or when you get home realllllly tired.
  • MyTagAlongs SOS Beauty Kit – safety pins, nail file, tweezers, sewing kit. This little pouch has everything!

Love this new lip stain by BITE Cosmetics.  It’s the colour I was wearing on set yesterday for the ‘secret project’ show I was filming at NKPR. I was also given the Line & Define lip primer, feels great on and smells nice too.

Learned about this awesome product from my makeup artist yesterday Jodi Urichuk. It’s amazing for giving your skin a nice GLOW.  Get it here -> PRTTY PEAUSHUN Skin Tight Body Lotion.

Get out and enjoy some of that sunshine today. Hopefully it will start feeling like spring SOOOOOOOON!

With love, CASIE
