'What's In My Bag' Tag

I think this is my first ever 'Tag' blog and it's one which I've been extremely excited to write ever since I got my new Zara handbag. I've got a feeling this may be a fairly long one today so grab a cup of tea and get ready for delve into my portable world. 


So without further a-do here's a list of what I carry around each and every day and which I can't leave the house without.

  • Purse- obviously essential
  • Camera- never missing a kodak moment
  • Portable phone charger- tiny blue tube which allows my to charge my iphone which we all know it needs it
  • Tissues- sometimes I believe I'm allergic to the outdoors as my nose is forever running when I'm out!
  • Kleenex blotting paper- for all my oily moments
  • Chewing gum- always comes in handy
  • Tartan and koala purse- to keep little bits and bobs from getting lost
  • Sunglasses- always a must when in Australia
  • Hand sanitizer- keeping all the bad bacteria at bay
  • Lipgloss- mini benefit number for touch ups
  • Lipbalm- Babylips one to stop the dry lips coming out to play




I got this koala purse for my birthday this year from my sister and I think it's the cutest thing ever! It's from New Look and is perfect for my time in Australia. Inside it I keep Rennies, paracetamol, kirby grips (bobby pins), spare hair bobbles (always seem to lose them) and an iphone cable for the portable charger.


I also got this tartan purse sent over from home but at Christmas time and love the Scottish feel of it to remind me of home. I use this as a mini make-up bag as it's big enough to carry a powder, concealer, eye liner and a little foundation.



My mint green purse is from Kmart (Australia) and I absolutely love it. It's big enough to easily fit in all my cards and cash but also big enough to squeeze in a couple of extras. Again I have another hair bobble, a slim notebook, a tiny pen, a re-useable to-do list and a mini pack of sticky notes. As you can tell I like to be prepared.





The bag itself is from Zara and is the Mini Office City Handbag and was £29. I fell so in love with it that I bought it, got it sent to my sister then gave her the money to send it over to me. I clearly just had to have it. It's bigger sister (the City Tote) was on my want list as it's basically a bigger version which is equally as beautiful but it sold out before I managed to make it to the shops so I snapped this one up as soon as I saw it. It's a beautiful deep navy colour and has 3 sections. The section in the middle is padded so perfect for ipads/kindles/any electronic or with a screen. Another one of the sections contains a pouch for your phone and card slots which are useful to pop in train tickets so you don't lose them and can easy find them.


As you can tell I like to be prepared for any situation and only get worse when I use a bigger bag.
What can't you leave the house without in your bag?
