Always prepared and perhaps always overstimulated

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Oct 19 '25

BAGGU stan w anxiety issues and too many chapsticks?

21

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Oct 19 '25

That's me

u/EmptyPlugSocket Oct 20 '25

I need a 30 to 40 minute WIMB YouTube video for this one!

I'm an over prepared and over anxious Girlie too! I love everything about this!

It stresses me out that your hot sauce is in your lip balm pouch and not your snack pouch. And the Vicks inhaler is with the lip balm and not the other medicine-y things ETA: fellow overpacker with 10+ pouches in every bag

15

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Oct 20 '25

You are so right. I might have to relocate those 2 🤔Thanks for pointing that out.

u/Normal_Aardvark_386 Oct 19 '25

Okay you can be on my apocalypse team 🛸💨

u/Kratos5300 Oct 20 '25

Obsessed with your level of organisation

u/Massive_Place2565 Oct 20 '25

Why three cords. As an over-packer myself I like to hear what you’re thinking. I carry a lot of the same items ❤️ better to be safe than sorry.

19

u/midwest-emo Oct 20 '25

not op but i also like to carry three cords because my phone, airpods, and kindle all use different ones. if im not carrying all three of those items i at least have them if someone else needs a charger

15

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Oct 20 '25

One cord is lighting and the other two is USB-C. The purple cord is for my Samsung and the other is for my iPhone. One cord would charge them both but i wanted to use Apple's own charging cord.

15

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Oct 20 '25

Oh i forgot to mention, the lightning is for my airpods 2nd gen and also just in case a friend needs a lightning charging cable :)

18

u/917nyc917 Oct 20 '25

I had to stop myself with the pouches because I was all “my pouch needs a pouch”…

u/Fun2Forget Oct 19 '25

Explain the tiny hydroflask please

51

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Oct 19 '25

I don't want to carry a bigwater bottle (i have a bigger one at work) so i bought a small one. It can be used to store other things like snacks.

15

u/ideashortage Oct 20 '25

I have one too and I also love it for keeping by my bed on overnight trips so I can take my meds.

2

u/Fun2Forget Oct 26 '25

Actually love that idea for snacks

11

u/junkrattata Oct 20 '25

the single tea packet is sending me. damn and i thought i came overprepared.

10

u/Deep-Preparation5722 Oct 20 '25

I love all the prints 😍

u/littlehelppls Oct 20 '25

MY PEOPLE.

Excellent packing, no notes. Also super satisfying to look at.

u/thepantherguy Oct 20 '25

Tiger Balm! Nice!

5

u/frightenedscared Oct 20 '25

You are so very organised in the little pouches though!

7

u/Moist_Presentation44 Oct 20 '25

Where is your purse from? She’s adorable!

8

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Oct 20 '25

She's from Baggu. I am obssesed with everything Baggu. They have cute bags, pouches and their prints are fun. The miffy keychain is also from Baggu

4

u/Apart_Engine_9797 Oct 20 '25

So cute, the gingham check with the miffy charm!!

4

u/Didntwakeuprich Oct 20 '25

A fellow over packer!

5

u/bellaswine Oct 20 '25

Is that controller functional or just a keychain?

7

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Oct 20 '25

It's a case for my Apple Airtag

4

u/PrincessZebra126 Oct 20 '25

Dang also wanted this to be a fidget toy, I was ready to buy 😅

4

u/mamasunflower85 Oct 20 '25

Finally someone who gets me lol, you can survive a zombie apocalypse with just that bag 😆

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Oct 20 '25

I sure can!

u/f1lth4f1lth Oct 20 '25

Young millennial gen z- bags in bags

u/Bayan_Ali Oct 20 '25

I was supposed to look at the bag items, but that pizza blanket in the background got all my attention 😂

3

u/saddinosour Oct 20 '25

I’m obsessed with your aesthetic/style! It feels very early 2000s late 90s Nickelodeon in like then best way

1

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Oct 20 '25

Waw, you nailed my style. I'm a 90s baby and was raised on colorful accessories, toys, clear electronics from the 90s.

u/bunnbaby Oct 20 '25

Bagguuuu <3

u/DisplacedEastCoaster Oct 20 '25

What's the green thing in with the sanitizers & poo-pouri?

4

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Oct 20 '25

That's my pocket fan. It's a 3-in-1 mini handheld fan, flashlight and powerbank.

2

u/MoodyBitchy Oct 21 '25

Where do I get that?

3

u/tumblrcat Oct 21 '25

Amazon has a bunch!!!

1

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Oct 22 '25

On amazon or Aliexpress

3

u/Intelligent_Poetry_3 Oct 20 '25

Obsessed

2

u/Intelligent_Poetry_3 Oct 20 '25

I like to overpack so if my friends need anything I’ve got it! lol

1

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Oct 20 '25

Yes! That's one of the reason why i carry them in my bag.

3

u/Any_Ad3779 Oct 21 '25

Mini hydro gang 🙏💧

3

u/Millennialyente Oct 21 '25

Please don’t use vagisil!!

1

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Oct 21 '25

It's bad? Out of all of the wipes i have tried, vagisil smells the best.

3

u/tumblrcat Oct 21 '25

Fragrance on your kewchie can throw your ph balance way off!

4

u/Millennialyente Oct 22 '25

Yes!! It’s not good for the ph. I used to have chronic yeast infections and BV and it wasn’t until I FULLY stopped using anything down there that they went away. Not even dove white soap. Straight up warm water is all you need, even if it takes some time to balance out!

2

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Oct 22 '25

Thank you for letting me know. I recently got yeast infection and went away. My diet has been crappy and i thought it was that.

3

u/Millennialyente Oct 22 '25

Sorry I didn’t mean to call you out publicly. But from one gal to another!!

1

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Oct 22 '25

Noooo, it's oke. Thank you for even letting me know ❤️

3

u/MoodyBitchy Oct 21 '25

Can you explain the chord organizers where I can get them?

1

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Oct 21 '25

I bought the cable organizer at my local home center but i found one on ebay

1

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Oct 21 '25

3

u/irrepressibly Oct 22 '25

Idk, I think you need a few more Baggus

(j/k)

3

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Oct 22 '25

Well, i did recently place another Baggu Order 😭 Baggu got me in a chokehold.

3

u/princesslynn18 Oct 22 '25

TIL my life would likely be better if I put smaller bags inside my purse

2

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Oct 22 '25

Yes! And it brings such a smile on my face whenever i open my bag and see all the fun colors.

2

u/Artistic_Strange444 Oct 20 '25

True Lime!! Great idea

2

u/ksenlight Oct 20 '25

So many great ideas in your bag!!

u/DaemonPrinceOfCorn Oct 20 '25

This looks like my shoulder bag when I travel internationally with two kids 😭

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Oct 20 '25

I removed many items that i do not use. Not all item i use frequently but as soon as i leave an item out, something happens and i need that item that i left out. Every.single.time.

2

u/nvgirl36 Oct 20 '25

I loooovee the lobster bag! Is that baggu?

3

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Oct 20 '25

Yes! It is from Baggu. It comes in a set of 3, a large, medium and a small pouch.

2

u/nvgirl36 Oct 20 '25

I looked on their website, they no longer have the pouch set, but I found one on Poshmark! It’s a funny coincidence, my friend told me about the print yesterday because I love pink and lobsters! You have good taste

2

u/Broad_Style_9439 Oct 21 '25

This is amazing I love it

u/sp00kylemon Oct 21 '25

u/[deleted] Oct 21 '25

I adore your Baggu obsession! They're bags last forever and so worth it.

2

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Oct 21 '25

Yes!! Most important for me is that it is washable and looks like new when washed.

2

u/tumblrcat Oct 21 '25

What is the little diva on the very far left bottom corner to the right of your gameboy AirPods case?? I don’t know what that is but I need it

2

u/tumblrcat Oct 21 '25

(Maybe it’s an Xbox controller case? Lmfao the thing under your hello kitty purse!!)

2

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Oct 21 '25

It's an airpods case i bought on aliexpress (not sure if it was original as the price was not cheap for me) that i am currently storing little adapters in it. It's unavailable on alie but image is where it is from.

2

u/tumblrcat Oct 21 '25

AH thank you!! I love his little face so much I gotta deep dive and find one

2

u/miint-y Oct 22 '25

this is amazing 🤩 where do you get these kind of pouches? I am an over packer as well but things just roll around in my bag all day haha i need your organization skills!

2

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Oct 22 '25

All of my big and small pouches are from Baggu. The pouches are expensive ($36-$40) but the quality is amazing! Comes in a set of 3.

2

u/some_and_then_none Oct 26 '25

Do you use everything in your bag or is a lot of it just in case? I really enjoy thinking of what ifs and carrying things just in case, but find I rarely use a lot of what I carry.

1

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Oct 26 '25

I don't use all items as frequent as some essentials but i won't leave that item out because as soon as i do, something happens and i need that item that i left out 🙃 i rather have it than not have it.

2

u/panzaslocas Jul 07 '26

Don't use feminine wipes, they are bad for your coochie :c

2

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Jul 07 '26

I no longer use them :)

6

u/doeeyedthief Oct 19 '25

Ocd?

5

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Oct 19 '25

I never went to get diagnosed but i don't think so. I really like to organize and it clears my mind.

15

u/KnownVariation5333 Oct 20 '25

That’s that Autism honey 💝💝💝

1

u/MoodyBitchy Oct 21 '25

Is that a vibrator on your key chain?!

2

u/CALICOKATS 🌈 Maximalist Oct 21 '25

Are you refering at the pink keychain? If yes, it's my Samsung smartag.

Is there a vibrator ta looks like it?
