So long as it hasn't got any liquids in it. And this seems a bit incompatible with the idea of having only one cabin-sized bag with everything you need for a week. If you're doing that you won't want to have a lunchbox-sized object in there as well. And afaik they no longer let you carry on other stuff besides your cabin bag.
Also incompatible with a small bag is the slip-on shoes thing. I do travel in them when I can, but when I'm home I often find myself tramping through fields and stuff, which requires proper boots. So it's either hop on one leg and then the other trying to get your boots off in the queue, or wear slip-ons and have most of your teeny cabin bag taken up by a pair of boots.
I have travelled extremely light at times, and it was brilliant - but a lot of the time, especially when I go home and people tend to give me stuff to bring back with me, or it's winter and an extra jumper takes up most of your bag, it's just impractical.
I very much enjoyed being able to do alternative shoes AND two chunky sandwiches AND violin this time with no hassle at all.
And the hairspray and perfume? Cousin's wedding. Forced to pass as respectable :)
