Hey, y'all! My name is Isabella, and I’m a college student learning how to navigate adulthood right alongside you!! Today, I will tell you what to pack in your gameday bag!!
Football season is upon us! I simply cannot wait to share my favorite things about game day as the season progresses! Here is what I pack in my gameday bag for a long day filled with tailgating, football, and good food.
- Power pack
- You will need this. I use it religiously every game day, and my friends often borrow it too. Game days are long, so this is practical and a necessity. If you don’t have one, now is the time to get one. This is the one I have and it is awesome, it holds charge well and charges very quickly.

- Portable fan
- A portable fan is a must for game days, especially in the South. Girls who went through sorority recruitment: I'm sure most of you already have one, so go bring it. I promise you won’t regret it.

- Chapstick or lip gloss
- It's basic, but it's not something to forget. Bring chapstick or lipgloss to touch up throughout the busy day! I have linked below my staple lip gloss which is the Covergirl yummy lip gloss in “Havana Good Time”. I normally throw this and a little aquaphor lip tube in my bag to have both options.

- Sunglasses
- At my college, tailgating is huge, so I make sure never to forget my sunglasses since game days start at about 10:00 a.m. These are my favorite sunglasses to add a little more flair to an outfit but still very practical. They’re affordable and the price has dropped, go check them out!

- Advil
- Long days in the sun can leave you drained and with a headache. I recommend throwing one of these little travel containers of Advil in your purse. I like to always be prepared and even if you don’t need it, someone around you will.

- Tissues
- I always like to keep this in my daily purse, so I transferred it over to my gameday bag as well! To me, this is an essential and practical item I recommend bringing.

- Hand sanitizer
- Football season is lots of fun but the days are long and spent talking to people and going new places. Hand sanitizer will help keep you from getting sick so you get to enjoy more gamedays! I have linked the hand sanitizer I use.

- Mini hairbrush
- I use a foldable hairbrush like the one I have linked below because of how compact and portable it is. It is an efficient use of space and it allows me to continue looking put together throughout the day by giving my hair a quick brush through.

- Oil blotters
- If you are going to gamedays somewhere where it is hot this is an essential! It is very useful when you want to touch up.

- I use this one.

- But, I have also used and like these.
- Bandaids
- Espeically if you plan on wearing heels or shoes that may rub blisters on your feet, this is smart to bring. They don’t take up very much space at all and are incredibly practical.

- Hair tie
- Sometimes I don’t like to wear a hair tie on my wrist because I feel like it takes away from my jewelry so I just throw it in my purse! Definitely don't forget to bring one regardless becuase game days can get hot!!
- Gum
- I normally just throw a couple pieces in my bag instead of bringing a whole pack to help save space. I always find myself reaching for it so I definitely recommend bringing at least a few pieces.
- Touch up makeup
- I normally bring concealer, an eyelash curler, and sometimes powder if I have enough room in my bag. Just bring whatever you think you might need. However, I normally don’t like carrying around too much other than concealer.
- Keys & Wallet
- Self explanatory, bring the essentials you need I just wanted to add them on here so you don’t forgot them! I like to make sure I have cash and cards on hand for gamedays in case somewhere only takes cash.
With Love,
Isabella XO
