I love that you included history & facts. That's incredibly thoughtful, especially for our society today which doesn't *always* prioritize education. Thank you! :)
There would be slits in the dresses and petty coats like pockets, where they had access to pocket like purses held on with a ribbon around the waistline
Whenever my friends complain about the mess in the purse I tell them about you and your method to keep everything in compartments. Warmest regards from Russia.
I never comment on videos on here but this video is great! Especially the ‘rest of my purse’ idea. That’s what adds majority of the clutter to my bag - loveee the idea!!
I knew about compartmentalization, but the go-box or whatever you want to call it at the front door, that is going to be a life saver for the forgotten items when I switch purses. I sometimes leave out the cosmetic case or something. I often switch purses on Sundays (purse has to match my Sunday outfit) and something is always missing. Thank you, thank you. I think I am going to subscribe!! Can't wait to see your older videos and what's to come!
Ok, where do I begin? First, the room you’re in is gorgeous. Love the accessories behind you. Second, the history of the purse was very interesting. Third, your top is really cute! Fourth, I love your purse and the small orange bag. So darn cute! Thanks so much for the video!!! New subscriber!
Your purse organizer ideas and family go to boxes have inspired me. I already know that my bag weighs a ton, but your suggestions could help me to lighten my load. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you TH-cam algorithm, I love it! I compartmentalize my purse and it's SO HELPFUL. It makes finding things and switching between bags so easy. The little container for gift cards is genius! I don't have a scale on hand, but most of my purse weight comes from the fact I carry a book and two notebooks with me every day, one attached to a pen pouch too. 😅 Great video.
I have been enjoying your videos😊. I enjoy organization too, if my husband would ever stop moving furniture around😄. Great ideas you have there! Especially the Red Five Bin Tower and the hinged box! Would love to have the tower for our family later($$$)we'll have to use an alternative because the idea is wonderful and a must! I did weigh my purse and it didn't show up. So I weighed myself.....we won't talk about that, the scale works!😲 I have in my purse one wallet, one cellphone wallet(used as medical wallet for meds. , medical cards, medical info.).,hair brush with two hairties around it, keys, two mini measuring tapes, key chain with lipbalm and hand sanitizer. I threw my datebook in and still nothing on the scale. 😊 A quick run to store grab wallet, keys and coat. I have a carrier for my water bottle with a pocket, unless I throw it in my purse than my purse would weigh 4.8 lbs.
Loved this video. You are soooo funny! Fabulous ideas you have that have sparked up possibly a few more or at least fine-tuned a few I already use. Once again thank you.
Just found your channel today! We just redid our kitchen and put a set up upper cabinets that sit on top of our counter with small drawers. My husband and I each have one to ourselves for our own stuff. I use mine for my purse stuff too! I love it!
I like the idea of having an extra box for the stuff I don't use. My bag is big but I carry my planner with me all the time, I'm always asked what hours I'm working next week or planning an appointment or going on vacation.
I loved your take on this! I checked the comments, but wanted to tell you that the Renaissance purses were placed deep within the layers of the skirt. They then had slits in the top layers that allowed them to go after the purses. So kind of the original pockets for women in dresses/pants!
My purse is huge/heavy; I use it when commuting to work and it contains A LOT. So what I get from this vlog is that I have a BUNCH of little bags already that I can use to compartmentalize (esp. those cords man!) and make life a little easier. Free DIY! TFS
I use my IPSY bags to compartmentalize, but I never thought of having a go zone! Love it! The only thing I would add is a pen. I use my phone for notes and reminders but sometimes you just need a pen! Lol I really enjoy your channel! I even let the commercials play through. Hahaha!
YA, awesome idea! I'd put a pen there, but my pen storage is steps away, so I just never thought of it! Maybe I'll throw one in for good measure! THANK you for letting the ad play all the way through! You are so sweet! I put all my AdSense pennies back into the channel right now, so that means a lot, especially since I do not place mid-roll ads on my channel right now. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
I went through my purses today and I organized everything according to your tips. I still need to find some sort of bag or container for my electronics, but the purse I'm currently using already looks a million times better. Thank you!!!!!
Thank you!!! OMG, I LOVE a good pun!!! It's totally my bag! LOL (I'll stop) Here is the link to the earbud case. I'll have to update the description too! amzn.to/2CkJyS9
Such a useful, educational and entertaining video! I often carry a nice, leather bag like your Coach bag, but oftentimes would rather carry a small, lightweight, nylon crossbody so I can just walk in the park or go grocery shopping. I got the Tom Bihn Side Effect crossbody to put inside my leather bags as an organizer and as a walking bag. I put my absolute necessities in the Side Effect, and leave the lesser-necessities in the leather bag. I leave the leather bag at home or in the car trunk -- and then take off walking with my Side Effect.
Thank you! Yeah, my other bag is a baggalini crossbody and it gets a lot more action LOL. I can take it to the dog park and not have to worry about it getting dirty! The Tom Bihn Side Effect is cute though! I might have to do a little investigating!
I rarely if ever use tissues when I carry them. I have a tiny nail clipper and a mirror compact in my toiletry bag. It's truly tiny as I've downsized to one lip color, a lip balm, a small hand cream and a mirror.
Loved this!! Yes-dresses with pockets!! I like your purse drawer/box idea. I'm guessing my bag weighs about 5 lbs. I will weigh it one of these days, cuz now you've got me curious ;)
Love your videos 👍 My purse weights 11.2 😃 Going to try your purse box idea with a old dresser were not using to reduce what I carry. I thought the history of purses was awesome!
Hi I really enjoy this video and love that 5 drawer that you got from the container store. That's a great idea having a purse bin for your purse. You are so well organized.👍
Where have you been my whole life? I've been carrying all this purse crap around with me for ages never thinking of the box. I'm going to go find a container to put near my door tonight. My bag thanks you and so do I.
I really enjoyed the history lesson. My MIL still puts cash in her bra. She stopped putting her phone there after a non-cancerous breast lump. Lately, I carry a larger bag because I’m carrying a sweater in it. Nice video. Your pouches are keeping you organized.
+Amie N. 9lbs! Oh boy! I actually found a lot of my crazy weight was like cosmetics and a heavy travel mirror...the weirdest stuff!! Thanks for watching! ^_^
Watching your videos repeatedly is very good for me. Love your bin ideas! Gonna set up such a bin for myself tomorrow! Also meant to share how I protect & carry my delicate ear buds and things: Hard-shell, clamshell style, upscale brand name, well made, hinged eyeglasses cases from Goodwill etc. Very inexpensive, convenient armor to carry fragile items in purse and grab them easily! (Just be sure not to clamp ear bud cords in the edges when you close the clamshell case. You can gently roll them up in a small piece of soft fabric first. I hate damaging my ear buds lol. Like my very smart dad says, the wires inside those cords are thinner than hairs! So easy to break as I'm dainty but intense and outdoorsy lol!)
I just stumbled across this video and have now subscribed. My purse is so heavy, it’s literally a pain in the neck! I have tried the small bags to compartmentalizations but still carried too many of them. I think the solution is your control centre by the door so I’ll give that a try now. I was also wondering where you found the small plastic boxes for the gift cards. And how do you manage all the darn loyalty cards???
I got the little boxes from The Container Store. I haven't found them any place else and I don't know who manufactures them. go.magik.ly/ml/9m0y/ I don't manage those giftcards super well. I just periodically look through them before I intend on going shopping and take them along. It's a challenge LOL
Hi Kay....just wanted to say hello and tell you that I really enjoy your channel! I am a new subscriber, and am relatively new to YT..I have gotten more motivated by your organizing videos since I have been watching! I also lived in the Boston area for about 10 years..closer to the airport since I work for an airline! But I now live in Florida! Keep up the great work on your organizing informational videos! Thank you so much again!
LOL!! I almost didn't put him in because he was so horrifying, but then I was like... "Don't disrespect Otzi" LOL 10lbs!!!?? Whoa! Time to take out some stuff!! ^_^
Most dresses in Renaissance and Georgian times were comprised of skirts and taille (top). Skirts had drawstrings and on both sides they had slits along the seams for easy access of the pockets that you wore tied around your belly.
SKIP AHEAD to 3:40 if you don't care about the history of purses or how heavy your purse should be.
The Organized Soprano where did you get your cosmetic bag I love it!
The Organized Soprano there is this channel called priorattire. Historical garments etc. You might find answers to your pocket question there. ;-)
@@kkova8590 lol I came to give this same piece of info 🤓
Love nerdy-Kay who teaches us the history of things.
Me too!
That made the whole video for me! Loved it!
I know you said you're not a beauty guru but would love to see an updated "what's in my purse" or "how to organize my purse" video. :)
I love that you included history & facts. That's incredibly thoughtful, especially for our society today which doesn't *always* prioritize education. Thank you! :)
There would be slits in the dresses and petty coats like pockets, where they had access to pocket like purses held on with a ribbon around the waistline
Skirts had slits so you could get your money from a purse hung from your band of your skirts
I swear, one of these days I'm going to be in an early opera and I'm going to be in a costume with these early purses LOL
I have used mini bags for years but never thought of doing a to go spot for less used items. Genius! !!! I am off to get one set up at my house.
Yay! I'm so glad to have inspired you!
rosemalde
Exactly what I was looking for. Minimalistic yet comprehensive list of essentials. Loved it !
Thank you so much for watching!
You said the magic word "baggallini." I'm addicted!
Love the extended purse compartment! 💜
I loved "the rest of my purse". Such a great idea. I'm going to apply it! Thankyou.
Yay!!!! Cheers!
Whenever my friends complain about the mess in the purse I tell them about you and your method to keep everything in compartments. Warmest regards from Russia.
I LOVE the purse bin by the door idea!! Thank you!
Very well done. Love your history lesson to start the total learning experience. I admire smart and funny and clever women and that certainly is YOU.
Thank you so much!

Thank you! Thank you! THANK YOU!!! ☺
bags within bags. I love it. Makes so much sense. Thank you!
Thank you so much for watching!
Binge watching your videos!! Got some great ideas for repurposing items
Cool! I did do something similar in my large purse, though I had cheap plastic pouches that started tearing up. I love the beside the door bin idea!
Your purse organizer ideas and family go to boxes have inspired me. I already know that my bag weighs a ton, but your suggestions could help me to lighten my load. Thanks for sharing!
Yay! So happy!

Great video.
Genius idea! I will be using this suggestion in 2 mins. Thank You.
That 5 bin tower is so perfect 😊
Okay, you motivated me. Cleaning and organizing the entryway tower and purse now. Plus now I don't feel alone in having bags for my bags, lol. Thanks!
I love the history you add to your videos! I just found your channel tonight and I am now binge watching your videos.
Thank you! I am just curious and my mind goes down many rabbit holes LOL
Just found your channel and I love it! Smiling as I listen to you. Great video!
Thank you so much for watching!

You have some very good ideas. This is the first time I've come upon your chapel😀💕
Thank you so much!
Loved this video. You are soooo funny! Fabulous ideas you have that have sparked up possibly a few more or at least fine-tuned a few I already use. Once again thank you.
New subbie here. Your information is clear and your delivery is excellent. This could be a full time gig for you! Cheers for a wonderful video:)
Thank you! That means a lot to me!
Love your videos. Been binge watching ❤❤❤❤
Thanks for that history lesson and organization tips. Now, it totally makes since to me where the term pocketbook was derived!!! 😊
Just found your channel today! We just redid our kitchen and put a set up upper cabinets that sit on top of our counter with small drawers. My husband and I each have one to ourselves for our own stuff. I use mine for my purse stuff too! I love it!
OMG Perfect!!!
💜 this! Very informative, appreciate the history of the 👜. Mine weighed in at 4lbs
Love the history lesson, and the great organization. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much for watching!
Love how organised you are
Thank you! 😊
What an excellent video!.....thank u!.....oh,in love with your 🎒 bag!
Great video! Your opening monolog cracked me up!
I love your ideas and your bubbly personality!! Great videos!!
Thank you!
Bag goals right there girl! Xx
Enjoyed watching this!
I have the same purse in black!
YAS!!!! Thanks for watching!
Thank you for the tips!! It certainly helped me!!
Yay!
love this idea!
Love the pocket talk lol!!! So funny, loved it. And thanks for the great info! So helpful ❤️
I feel you on the accident prone bit girl, trust me. And without fail I always leave something in another bag. Terrible habit I need to break 😅😅
Great tips I have a go zone in my trunk ( that way I always have what I need )
I also keep mints / gum and Mini Office bag
My purse only weighed 3.4 pounds. I’m very surprised. Thanks very helpful video, and you have such a friendly personality. 😊
I like the idea of having an extra box for the stuff I don't use. My bag is big but I carry my planner with me all the time, I'm always asked what hours I'm working next week or planning an appointment or going on vacation.
Thank you so much for the history ...so helpful and positive
I second in, subscribed. Natural, a SOP, and organized?? Winning.
Yay!!! Thank you for subscribing!
You are a sharp girl...Love the idea of the purse Box. Soooo smart. Love your humor as well.
Thank you so much!
I loved your take on this!
I checked the comments, but wanted to tell you that the Renaissance purses were placed deep within the layers of the skirt. They then had slits in the top layers that allowed them to go after the purses. So kind of the original pockets for women in dresses/pants!
It all makes sense now!!!
Gonna try the this! I carry mints and gum but hate those scents being left in my bags.
Great tips! I could've totally used these tips when I used to haul a big bag to and from work!
+Yenny Thanks! I remember that grind too! #thestruggle

The Organized Soprano Tom Bihn is the very best quality...I did a LOT of research before getting that big little bag. 🇨🇦♥️
Love it! But where's your nail file, powder compact, kleenex?
I rarely if ever use tissues when I carry them. I have a tiny nail clipper and a mirror compact in my toiletry bag. It's truly tiny as I've downsized to one lip color, a lip balm, a small hand cream and a mirror.

Loved this!! Yes-dresses with pockets!! I like your purse drawer/box idea. I'm guessing my bag weighs about 5 lbs. I will weigh it one of these days, cuz now you've got me curious ;)
I also love using small bags to organise my purse.
Love your videos 👍
My purse weights 11.2 😃

Thank you SO MUCH, for your amazing video!
Thank you so much for watching!
Great tips. I always struggle with purse organization. I'll have to get a small 'go zone' bin 💜
Let me know how it works out! Thanks for watching ^_^
Great, helpful ideas!🙂
Hi I really enjoy this video and love that 5 drawer that you got from the container store. That's a great idea having a purse bin for your purse. You are so well organized.👍
Thank you for watching!! :)
Hi can you do a video on incoming mail and paper work what to keep and trash? That would be so helpful cause I'm not so great dealing with paper work.
U r the minimalist Kate, awesome
Thanks for watching! :)
You so crack me up! My bag is....OMG!!!...one at a time!.. Keep going.
Keep on going! LOL
Love your vids, and the use of when and where bags and pockets were invented.. bags i guess in under wear.. what..lol
Where have you been my whole life? I've been carrying all this purse crap around with me for ages never thinking of the box. I'm going to go find a container to put near my door tonight. My bag thanks you and so do I.
I really enjoyed the history lesson. My MIL still puts cash in her bra. She stopped putting her phone there after a non-cancerous breast lump. Lately, I carry a larger bag because I’m carrying a sweater in it. Nice video. Your pouches are keeping you organized.
Oh mah gaaaa!!! Love these ideas! Subscribed
Yay!
Thanks for sharing whats in your purse! That last little zipper bag with the compartments inside is amazing! What brand is that one?
Thank you! It's the in.bag purse organizer and I think you can only buy it from the Container Store right now. Links in the description! :)
Great ideas and tips! I'm using a light purse right now but I was shocked when it weighed in at 9 lbs. I guess I need to cull that a bit.
+Amie N. 9lbs! Oh boy! I actually found a lot of my crazy weight was like cosmetics and a heavy travel mirror...the weirdest stuff!! Thanks for watching! ^_^
like the idea of the the gift card box.
Great video! You can do your videos the way you want and if others don't like them, don't watch. Wish I was as organized as you!
Thank you!
Watching your videos repeatedly is very good for me. Love your bin ideas! Gonna set up such a bin for myself tomorrow!
Also meant to share how I protect & carry my delicate ear buds and things:
Hard-shell, clamshell style, upscale brand name, well made, hinged eyeglasses cases from Goodwill etc. Very inexpensive, convenient armor to carry fragile items in purse and grab them easily!
(Just be sure not to clamp ear bud cords in the edges when you close the clamshell case. You can gently roll them up in a small piece of soft fabric first. I hate damaging my ear buds lol.

Love the glasses case idea!!!
The intro made me laugh. Great tips as usual!
Une vidéo très bien faite du début a la fin de très bonnes idées merci
I’d love to know where you find those small plastic snap boxes/containers you utilize for gift cards, thanks in advance!

Hi, I'm going back and watching your older video's. Do you happen to know the name of your Coach bag? Thanks!
Hi! I just subscribed and am so excited I found you! Where did you find that perfect little case for your meds? I love that!
Oops! Just found the link in the description box. Sorry about that!

Thank you! And thank you for subscribing!

Thank you so much!! ☺
P.S. - the mummy picture woke me up a little haha! Nice job on the trivia. And... my bag weighed MORE than 10lbs. SMH. I needed this video!
LOL!! I almost didn't put him in because he was so horrifying, but then I was like... "Don't disrespect Otzi" LOL
10lbs!!!?? Whoa! Time to take out some stuff!! ^_^
Yes!!! Dresses with pockets!!
Best thing in the world!!
Love your video and ideas! Where did you find your sweater? It is darling!
Thank you! It's from Anthropologie! They always have all the best stuff!
Great vid! Entertaining 👌 tfs hun!

Most dresses in Renaissance and Georgian times were comprised of skirts and taille (top). Skirts had drawstrings and on both sides they had slits along the seams for easy access of the pockets that you wore tied around your belly.
So interesting!
You are too cute! You are funny and have a great personality. Informative and entertaining. Thank you!
Thank you!!! 😊
I agree with you.
