WHAT’S IN MY SPI MESSENGER?
The SPI Messenger is the perfect bag to take on the go. Whether you are running errands, heading to work, or traveling this bag will perfectly hold whatever you may need for the day. I use mine for work and travel – here is a look at what is in my SPI Messenger:
Mario Badescu Facial Spray (8 oz. bottle)
This spray may seem like the most unnecessary item in the world. But I swear to you – it is essential. The first time I used this spray was at Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival. Bonnaroo takes place over 4 days during June in Manchester, Tennessee. It is always insanely hot and humid. Infused with aloe, herbs, and rosewater a few sprays leave your skin feeling refreshed, renewed, and no longer sticky. 8 oz. is quite a lot of liquid as well, the travel sized bottle goes for 2 oz. but I am able to fit the full size in my SPI Messenger.
Dose Liquid Lipstick in Lazy Daisy
This is the perfect go to nude for light/medium skin tones, for deeper skin tones I would suggest the Dose Liquid Lipstick in Desert Suede. It is the softest, least drying liquid lipstick I have ever used. The lips really pull any makeup look together and I know however I am wearing my makeup this nude lipstick will go perfectly.
Planner
This planner is so cute and was only $4.99 at my local Marshall’s. Marshall’s has an amazing selection of planners and calendars for a great price. I always carry my planner with me so I never forget what is on for my workday.
Ray Bans Aviators
SPIbelt is based in Austin, Texas! Which means the drive to and from the office is always VERY sunny! These aviators are perfect for protecting my eyes from the sun’s rays and I receive compliments whenever I am wearing them!
Lip Balm
I don’t leave the house without lip balm. There are very few things I can think of that feel worse than dry, chapped lips. This lip balm protects my lips from the sun’s rays because it is infused with an SPF. It also keeps my lips nourished underneath my liquid lipstick.
Ralph Lauren Wallet
This pink Lauren by Ralph Lauren wallet is the perfect pastel accessory. Pastels are great for spring/summer because they are bright without being overwhelming.
Gum
There have been a few studies that claim gum can help you stay focused on tasks! A 2014 study published in The British Journal of Psychology claims that chewing gum actually shows beneficial effects for those performing visual attention tasks. Plus, who wouldn’t want fresh breath?
Benefit Roller Lash Mascara
Sometimes I will leave the house forgetting to apply my mascara. I have no idea how I forget, but it has happened so often that it has become a necessity for me to never leave the house without it! I go this travel size mascara as a gift and I will definitely be purchasing the full size product. My lashes always look so long after using and it doesn’t flake throughout the day.
Keys
Unfortunately, Austin doesn’t have a passenger rail that runs north to south, and I do not live close enough to bike so I must drive.
Headphones
An essential. Whether I am at work or the gym I constantly listen to music or podcasts.
The SPI Messenger really is the perfect on the go bag! I was able to fit everything mentioned above and still had so much available room for storage. Today, I used the SPI Messenger to carry items to work but I also love to use it as a small carry on item when traveling. Click here to shop for yours today!
