Whats in YOUR Bag for a Summer Concert Outing?!

One of my most favorite things about Summertime is anticipating getting outside to experience some live MUSIC & go to concerts! I always am amused recalling my early days attending shows & how I snuck in a one time use camera (“Fun Saver”, is that what they were called?!) to get a few pictures; I would camouflage the camera under a huge feminine pad, then seek out a male security guard in hopes he wouldn’t want to investigate under such a product πŸ˜‰ Verdict? It always went well, but I will say I am glad I can just bring my phone in to most venues now, then hope for a selfie with my favorite artists post show.

I’ve been extremely lucky to see some awesome concerts over each Summer that has passed, & the bonus is that they are usually outdoors. Whether I am heading out to The Greek Theatre to see my favorite girl, Tori Amos, or watch The Simpsons take over The Hollywood Bowl, it’s always such a wonderful reminder that I live in a great city with loads of live music to see & hear. The Irvine Amphitheatre is awesome, too; yes, there’s a lawn, so therefore “nose bleed” views, but to still be at John Mayer or Kroq’s Weenie Roast is a great evening out.

Next up, one of my DREAM concerts will become a reality, a day after my birthday no less: Madonna. Yes, the Madonna. Shes coming to LA & I am so thrilled that I will be there! I always fret over the perfect outfit (I am thinking some Drowned World ’01 tour-esque; plaid skirts, boots) as well as making sure my essentials are in my bag. The newest addition will be U by Kotex Thin Pads with 3D Capture Core plus Xpress DRI.Β 

If you’re thinking, Kotex what? Kotex’s newest line is a cute play on words, translating to: Express Dry πŸ˜‰ When its your time of the month, you can rest assured that U by Kotex literally has you covered, & now, with the added Xpress DRI, this pad will absorb even your heaviest days fast to ensure that you’re comfortable & can enjoy your life…like Madonna concerts πŸ˜‰

I love these designs, making your time of the month a bit more trendy.

Between trips, concerts & just everyday LIFE, I Β only trust U by Kotex; they offer a full line of feminine care products for periods including pads, liners and tampons. Outstanding protection that keeps you one step ahead, even on the craziest of days! With their U by Kotex Ultra Thin pads with 3D Capture Core and the Xpress DRI, they offer crazy fast absorption to help stop leaks, which makes it seem more possible to wear my favorite white & yellow colors on those days.

Below, I have a picture of some of my other concert bag essentials, which are usually toted in my first edition LAMB by Gwen Stefani bag; I have had it for over 10 years & still cherish it!

    Nothing bums a lady out like having an extra ‘friend’ tagging along for events like these. But I’ve always been a fan of Kotex products and I love how much variety they offer nowadays.
