How to Pack Your Tote Bag (Teens)

A cute tote bag catches the attention of others, but it should also be organised and clean with the right things that you will need on a daily basis. Read on to find out more!

Steps

  1. 1Buy a cute tote bag. If you live in America, you can buy one at Target, but many other shops do sell them.
  2. 2Pack your school supplies. Get a binder and some folders because they are lighter and slimmer. Put your planner, notebooks, etc.
  3. 3Pack a pencil case. But don't just put some pencils in. Be more organized. Put in a geometry set, some pencils, some mechanical pencils, pens (preferably at least black,blue,and red, but be unique!), highlighters, an eraser, a ruler, box of leads, and a sharpener
  4. 4Get a cute bag for your makeup if you wear/want to wear it. Again, you can get these from Target. Some things you can put in your makeup bag is concealer (if you feel like you need it), lip gloss or blush. But remember, don't be pressured into wearing makeup. Be you!
