What's in my Bag

Since the festive period graced me with a new bag (and what a beauty she is), I figured this would be a good time to update you all on the bits that travel round with me day to day.This bag is a bit more hefty than the offerings I’d been reaching for of late, but it’s structured design means it doesn’t feel or look bulky, you can just fit a lot in it!I did a what’s in my bag video a few months ago (you can watch that here) and mostly things are the same, but I’ve switched out a lot of the beauty bits!Starting with the main things, the purse is the same one I’ve been using all year, it’s Michael Kors and I fell in love with the rose gold detailing. My phone isn’t in the pictures but I have a gold iPhone 6, with a pretty case from Casetify, and that’s normally in there too. I also carry my iPod Nano (I never got on with the iPod on my iPhone) and my Heartbeats v2 headphones from Beats. My Oyster Card holder is a cute black number with kitten whiskers on from Accessorize! Beauty-wise, I’ve got the Soap and Glory Hand Maid Gel, which smells really good, and The Body Shop’s Glazed Apple Hand Cream which is a fresh festive scent! I have a mini Dove Original Deodorant which is very handy when you’ve been out all day and spent too much time on the tube. I have a little compact mirror, I’m not sure where it’s from, it was in my stocking this year, but it has this super cute typewriter design on it! I’m carrying my Soap and Glory Kick Ass Instant Blur and Brighten concealer, which is amazing for on the go, and really good coverage, as well as my Chanel Les Beiges compact for if things get a little shiny. As always there’s a ton of lip products, the Caudalie Lip Conditioner for when things are a little dry, as well as the Dior Lip Glow, which gives just a hint of colour. I have the Soap and Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Gloss Stick in Plum Jam for if I want a bit more colour, and the Maybelline The Elixir Gloss in Caramel Infused, for a glossy nude option. I’m also carrying a mini bottle of the Caudalie Beauty Elixir for if I feel like I need a refresh (or if I’m feeling panicky, the essential oils calm me right down), and some of my Victoria’s Secret Warm Ginger Body Spray decanted into a little spray bottle from Muji. As always, I have a few hair ties floating around too, I like these pretty pastel ones that don’t leave a dent in your hair!I’m a big believer in snacks, currently I’m toting about a Crunchy Nature Valley Bar, Terry’s Chocolate Orange Toffee Crunch (my favourite chocolate ever!) and a giant box of Strawberry Tic Tacs!Other things you might find in my bag, depending on the day, a stash of pretty floral notebooks, fourteen pens all missing the lids, my portable phone charger, assorted spare camera batteries and memory cards, my Canon Ixus 220 hs camera for on the go, or my Canon 550d camera for fancy photos, fifty scrunched up receipts (probably all for food) and a fork. Because you never know when you’ll need a fork.What’s in your bag right now?
