My Classic Zipper Tote lets me fit it all in because I’m always on the move. I carry two journals: one for things I'm learning or random ideas and another for personal notes or reminders for myself. Also, a good book because I commute everywhere and an extra set of clothes for dance class after work. For inspiration, photos of my mom and my grandma, the matriarchs of my family remind me of their strong relationship to our heritage and the strength they both possess.

In my Tall Structured Tote, you will find a copy of the textbook staple Interaction of Color by Josef Albers - it’s my endless source of inspiration. I also carry embroidery thread, Blackwing Pencils (my favorite to sketch with), a Koi Travel Watercolor Set and measuring tape (you'd be surprised how much I use it!). I keep things organized with a Cuyana Leather Cardholder and Work Clutch. And, last but not least, I keep ideas organized with a sketchbook.

I keep connected by having my laptop with me at all times thanks to my Trapeze Satchel’s built-in sleeve. Other essentials include my Classic Zip Around Wallet, sunglasses, daily journal, keys and my crystals for positive energy and creativity (and to neutralize the energy from electronics!). My go-to reads for the commute: fashion magazines and a book on the fragrance industry. Also, a set of notecards from the Magritte exhibit at the SFMOMA I recently visited.
