I recently bought a new handbag from +Very.co.uk the Carvela Evelin bucket bag which I managed to get on sale for £53.00.
I chose this particular bag as it is neither too big, nor too small. It is the perfect size for those of us who carry along a lot of things, but do not want a suitcase size handbag to drag around. With its sizing at H21 W28 D16 (cm) this is a bag that you can take to the office or on a night out with the girls (or indeed to both) as it works well for either.
When it comes to changing handbags however, there is one thing that we all dread. Clearing out the old handbag. Old receipts, bills we have forgotten about, ten half empty chewing gum packets, makeup that has fallen to the bottom; it is all there.
I now start afresh, with good intentions and a vow that this bag will be different. I will not treat you so badly. So with that in mind, here is what is in my new handbag!
London Retro sunglasses and case
Umbrella (From M&S)
Happy Jackson earphones case
We all have these:
Purse from Fossil (but found in a charity shop!)
Pen, phone charger & small face powder brush
Phone
Mini brush
Hairband & compact mirror
Vaseline to keep my lips soft in summer
Notebook
Business card holder which holds work business cards and my blog card
Finally:
Mini makeup bag containing:
Two red lipsticks, one dark one light
One dark pink lipstick
MUA mascara & eyeliner for emergency touch ups
Rimmel Stay Matte Face Powder
I am not kidding myself to the fact that within a week that makeup bag will also include another five lipsticks and chewing gum pills will no doubt again multiple; but I am hopefully of maintaining some kind of order with my new lovely.
What do you carry round in your handbag?
