Hi, I have been a little slack lately with my handbag, I have either been using a tote or just carrying my phone and purse around sans bag. After being away for a week with my parents in Mildura, I decided to pull out a different handbag from my suitcase full under my bed.
I'm a little obsessive with bags - I own far too many. By this I mean I have two huge plastic containers in the roof plus a suitcase full under my bed... and there maybe more that I can't remember and this point.
First of all the handbag I pulled out and am currently using is a H&M handbag, which I bought on sale for $20 approximately a year ago.
Handbag includes;
1. Jag Purse
This is a standard item in a females handbag - I bought this one on sale from Myers for $40 just under a year ago. It was a case of looking at it, picking it up, putting it down and then going back to it multiple times. In the end it was honestly a matter of cost as I like to skimp and save as much as I can.. but I also didn't want to regret not taking it with me. So I opted for the larger purchase and have used it ever since. Money well spent.
2. Red sunglasses
These are cheap $2 shop sunny's I bought in a small town on the way home from Mildura, they only cost me $6.99 - brilliant! To buy an expensive pair, anything over $10 would be a complete waste. I'm clumsy and if they don't end up falling off my head and down a set of stairs then I'll either sit on them or put a pile of books on top of them. All very reasonable things to occur, these are just a few ways I have destroyed a pair of sunny's. Anyways, they are definitely a staple for an Australian, if its not the sun burning your retinas its the glare of the clouds.
3. Cheap headphones
Lets be honest, there is a definite love hate relationship between myself and technology. I put it down to my clumsy-ness... for some reason no matter what I do things break once they have spent more than five minutes in my presence so like the sunny's a cheap pair of $2 headphones are safer.
4.Hand mirror
Everyone in my family is always looking for something reflective, to check their make-up, teeth, hair etc. This hand mirror was something my grandmother found on eBay and voila!! It is now a permanent fixture in my bad, plus it's pretty.
5. Range of lip glosses and lipsticks
These include the following:
Innoxa Antioxidant Lip Glaze
Maybelline Super Stay 24 Colour in shade Won't move mauve
Mecca Cosmetica lip gloss
Burt's bees moisturizing lip balm in acai berry
ColourPop in Tootsi matte
Lily lovers lip shimmer
Coconut Revolution Coconut Lip Gloss in Blueberry
I will definitely be reviewing and posting about the Coconut Revolution Lip Gloss, ColourPop matte and Maybelline Super Stay 24 Colour in the near future so look out for the posts if you're interested in my thoughts on these products.
6. House and car keys
Staples if I want to have access to the house and my car. With my shop-a-holic tenancies it is quite convenient being able to just come and go as I please. I've only had my license for the last eight months and it has definitely given me a little independence.
7. Cetirine Hayfever & Allergy Relief tablets, Panamax tablets, Hydrozole cream, Listerine oral care strips.
Fresh breath - need I say more.
Panamax for that womanly time of the month or the occasionally headache from staring at a screen too long.
Hayfever tablets and Hydrozole cream for the stubborn dermatitis on my hands and feet which flares up all the time - I'm allergic to everything I touch!
8. 2 yellow highlighters, 3 Black ink pens.
Apparently you can never have too many pens. Being a student and jobseeker you never know when your going to need to write something down or have five minutes to complete a reading.
So that is the contents of my bag this week, there is a reason I like to own a large handbag - to carry all this stuff around with me!
Thanks,
Danny xx
