What’s in my Short North Pouch

What's in my Short North Pouch | girl about columbus

With re-modeling + packing + moving + unpacking + shopping + unpacking some more… my organizational skills have been seriously challenged these last few weeks. Which is why I recently leafed through this larger bag to simplify my life + condense my needs into a smaller bag:

This clutch that I’m obsessed with is from a company called All’asta (prounouced “All-aw-sta”). They’re not your typical direct selling company, which I find refreshing. Instead, they are focused on the experience – someone hosts a party, everyone brings items that they no longer want (but think cute purses, home decor, etc… not old raggedy stuff). Party-goers silently bid on items + then you can use the money you make to buy other items, get cash, and/or buy things from the super cute All’asta catalog (aka where this clutch is from). They’re brand new + a company you all should check out – oh and did I mention they’re local – hence the name of the clutch is the Short North Pouch. Stay tuned because this girl is hosting her own All’asta party in the fall! 🙂

I went into Nordstrom awhile back, just to look, and came out with this Jo Malone perfume. This stuff smells outta this world, lasts, and comes in the perfect travel-size bottle.

This Dior mascara has been in my beauty arsenal for going on 8 years. There’s nothing else out there like it… it’s magic.

I’m so into these $18 Free People sunglasses, which are much more wallet-friendly alternative to these $280 Karen Walker sunnies, that I’ve been obsessed with now for quite some time.

I am truly addicted to lip balm. I kinda freak out if I don’t have any on – I am a huge fan of lip gloss + lipstick but if I don’t have the balm, it’s a problem. Lately, I’ve been wearing this Hemp + Honey Plus lip balm, which is a from a local company. They have a line of natural body products…. I am also loving their hand butter.

I have a plethora of lil’ hand sanis right now but this Bath & Body Works one is my current fave. Yes, I definitely hit up their June sale.

These gac business cards are always with me, made by the very talented local artist Caitlin Hay. She also designed my logo + site banner that I am working on putting back on my new site.

🤍 It's time to refresh our towels + bedding for the New Year! After heading to @meijerstores, I picked up fresh white towels, pretty patterned sheets + pillowcases, and a classic, crisp white quilt. 🥰 To keep everything tidy, I added in some woven baskets + wire bins. I layered in greenery 🌱 for natural elements as well as pretty + functional cleaners, a gorgeous candle, and a sign with personality! How do you keep your bath and bedroom linens organized? #Meijer #NewYear #Organization
Our January #bookshelfie 🤍 Clean, fresh, + simp Our January #bookshelfie 🤍 Clean, fresh, + simple. // I’ve been absent on social this week, actually really since the change of the New Year.  This was intentional & planned before what happened this week. Just because I’ve been silent on here doesn’t mean I haven’t been speaking out in real life. I chose to listen on here, quite a lost art that I’m personally working on improving this year. 🤍 I’ll leave you with this: The other day, Ava and I were reading Parker Looks Up, one of the books we’re reading this month. 📖 She looked at me and said, “I love her skin Mommy. Isn’t it pretty?” Yes, my dear it is. ❤️
2 0 2 1 ✨🤍🥳 Anyone else’s kids up at the 2 0 2 1 ✨🤍🥳 Anyone else’s kids up at the same time they always are although they stayed up late last night?! 🙈 Our 2 from our “2021” balloons popped soooo we just put up 21 ☺️ We danced forever, played games, had a 9pm ball drop & wrapped up 2020 the only way we knew how... with each other. 🤍 #nye #bye2020 #hello2021
Cue the confetti ✨🤍 2021, we’re SO ready! 🎊 #newyearseve #nye #2021

Tinsel has replaced our ornaments! Are you guys all packed away for the holiday? After NYE I plan to organize, clean, + declutter! 🤍 #nye #2021 #goodbye2020
