Sad news: Jaclyn Welch, the spirited blogger and street style photographer behind the Streets of Sparkle fashion blog, has just moved to L.A. over the weekend. Boo.
Good news: Before ditching Big D, she stopped by to spill her bag for us. I have no doubt she’ll charm the pants off those Los Angelistas and I’m looking forward to seeing the new outfits that dazzle the audience on her blog.
In the meantime, check out all the glitter, I mean goods, in her bag.
1. Nikon D3000. “That goes everywhere. You never know where you’ll find people.”
2. Wallet. “I got this at T.J. Maxx.”
3. Dove deodorant. “Just keepin’ it fresh.”
4. Flip Video camera. “I like documenting things.”
5. Hi-Chew candies. “I get them at World Market.”
6. Glittery iPhone case.
7. Special K Pastry Crisps (“My sister and I buy these in bulk”) and Black Cherry Almond Clif Bar (below)
8. Earrings. “It’s a hoop thing. I always carry hoops in my bag.”
9. Streets of Sparkle business cards. “I make those. I’m kind of a crafty person, and I like paper.” (Note the adorable rhinestone!)
10. Beauty products clockwise from top: Essie polish in Tart Deco (“It’s one of my favorites”); Laura Mercier lip palette (“I don’t think they sell it anymore, so I savor it”); Revlon Super Lustrous lip gloss in Coral Reef (“I stole it from my sister”); Laura Mercier kohl eye pencils in Stormy Grey and Brown Copper; Maybelline Color Sensational lipstick in Are You Red-dy (“For going to night–pop the red!”) and Benefit Erase Paste concealer (“That stuff is really good. It erases for sure.”)
11. Sunglasses. “I have one pair for fun times and one for serious times.”
12. Notebook (“I use this for everything–notes on people I stop to photograph, ideas for the blog, lists, and I like to remind myself of goals and dreams.”) and bible (“It’s pretty much always in the bag.”)
Thanks for posting this! I’m an LA resident, but have followed Streets of Sparkle for quite some time. Reading her posts have always made me miss my college days in Texas. I am very excited for her to share some fashion postings here in our city. Welcome to LA!
Hey Jaclyn,
It was interesting to see all of the things in your bag!!
Love,
Dad
When my kids were a little younger, I attended a morning meeting at Starbucks. At one point, I was talking to the attendees while simultaneously fishing around in my purse for a pen. When I thought I had found one, up it came to the table so I could take some notes in my notebook. It wasn’t a pen. It was an Ariel Princess Toothbrush my daughter had stuck in my purse. There’s still no telling what you might be able to find it that bad boy today. We’ve now graduated to other things, but totally random items nonetheless.
