What's in your purse, and perhaps even what is your purse as well? I'll start, these are all things that generally reside and/or are considered necessities:

My bare minimum?
-carabiner clipped to the strap containing keys, 4-way pocket screwdriver, heavy duty magnet, bottle opener, store discount/membership cards (like grocery store advantage card and such)
-craig morrison millenium pouch containing my cross "Ion" pen, 2 pen refills, debit card, gas/credit card, drivers license and change of address card, school ID, jewish community center ID, voting card, punch cards, cash (bills and quarters ONLY), checks to be deposited, business cards (mine), health insurace cards, library/co-op cards, business cards
-cell phone
-makeup including mirror, lip venom, lipstick, trial size mascara, powder compact
-mints
-trial size hand lotion
-nail file
-4 tampons
-two sided comb
-nail scissors
-needle and thread
-waterbottle (propped in, not really in the purse so much)
-medication (2 perscription bottles and one ortho-evra patch in a little case with a copy of the script)
-3 emergen-C packets
-watch
-lead holder and 1 vial of lead containing HB and 4H lead
-Diplomat M nib fountain pen
-Watermans Fine nib fountain pen
-small bottle of Mont Blanc ink
-10 notecards
-passport
-3 hairholders
-sample size vial of perfume

I often have a mini-watercolor paper pad, and my little watercolor set in there too.

Edited to add: my purse is an average sized black purse from Target. Non-descript, plain, and awesome.
