I know you boys out there talk about your EDC all the time. Well, I’m here to give the girls their five minutes. I mentioned a few months ago my desperate search for an easy EDC for the necessities of a modern girl’s life: phone, a couple credit cards, ID, some cash, pen, notebook and maybe, if I’m lucky, a tube of lip balm. I purchased the lovely Coach clutch I featured in that post but its a tad on the pricey side. When I saw this golden zip clutch from Fossil ($55), I knew I had to share it.
There’s room for cards and cash and a mobile phone. I bet you could even squeeze a mini notepad (a Rhodia No.10 would fit) and a compact pen in one of these as well. The lip balm might be tricky. But it sure is spangly! Its also available in black, brown, camel and teal (the orange, yellow and magenta versions are already sold out on the Fossil site).

Perhaps you could ditch the tube for a flat tin of Nivea Lip Butter? (available in the US & UK) Here’s a review I found: http://www.beautybutterflies.de/2013/03/review-nivea-lip-butter.html I’m a happy customer but there are lots of other brands of space-saving tins too of course. Love the clutch.
great solution! now I want to do a post about space saving cosmetics. for the office girl on the go!
please do!
Love this one! I have great Cole Haan one that I found on eBay, but have never been able to find it again…that being said, Stella and Dot has some nice ones too! http://www.stelladot.com/shop/en_us/accessories/designer-wallets
