Tag: What's in my Handbag?

The ‘What’s in my Handbag?’ tag is probably one of my favourite tags to read (just because I’m nosey inquisitive), but I’ve never actually done my own – so here it is. This is going to be a very picture-heavy post, so I’ll try to keep writing down to a minimum.

The bag is my Zara shopper, it’s my absolute favourite handbag – I actually have three of them in different colours. The leather is really thick and sturdy and it compliments any outfit. It’s also big enough to carry around all of my junk!

My beloved Ted Baker diary, I take it everywhere with me.

Featured in my Friday Faves post, I love this Issey Miyake perfume.

My Michael Kors wallet was a birthday gift.

This makeup bag was from my Liberty London haul, but I’ll show you what’s in that further down in the post.

Cute coin purse that I now use for my “girly bits”.

I can’t go anywhere without tissues! The Hero Mints* are energy mints so perfect if I haven’t had much sleep!

My Paul & Joe tin, which contains my blotting papers and a lip balm.

Chewing gum is a handbag staple. I often have 3-6 packets on the go.

House and car keys. The star is a handmade keyring I got in Kenya when I was travelling on my gap year. The pink case is from Moo and holds my business cards.

My work pass (sorry it’s hideous picture so I’ve hidden it haha) and my beloved iPhone 5.

One of my other beloved Apple items, my iPad and my Ideal Cases personalised case*.

I don’t top up any makeup while out, apart from lips. I personally think that if your bases need reapplying then they’re probably not right for you – I’m not saying that’s right, it’s just my view. The bulk of my makeup bag is balms, lipsticks, lip-glosses and hand creams.

QMS Medi Cosmetics is one of my favourite hand creams.

I’m also a little obsessed with L’Occitane hand creams too.

Mont Bleu crystal file. You need one of these in your life.

The lip collection.

My trusty YSL Rouge Volupte in Spicy Pink and my favourite lip butters.

NARS Damage and my favourite Chantecaille gloss.

I can always count of Caudalie to refresh my face. My flower mirror.

I don’t go anywhere without my sweeteners haha. And also some antibacterial wipes.

Do you carry a lot around in your handbag? Leave me links if you’ve done one of these posts.
