Kelly Davis, 22, barber school student

"I just run out of the house in the morning, so I throw in everything that fits," she says. She's carrying a purse on top of her black tote.

What's right: The bags don't look stuffed, even though she carries a change of clothes in one of them, a requirement for school.

What's wrong: She carries two, and sometimes three, heavy, glass, full-size perfume bottles in her purse because she likes options during the day. Limit scent to one a day.
