What do you keep in your bag?

It's only really the last 6 months or so that iv used an every day bag. Before that, I would just keep my card in the back of my phone case and leave everything else in the car.

I always find it interesting what people have in their handbags for some reasonGrin

So I now have a little over the shoulder bag which I keep my keys, a little diary, Vaseline, perfume and a lip gloss. My phone is always in my hand.

What do you keep in yours as I feel like I am missing something as everyone has these big bags!

Why do I love conversations like this?!
I've long been a bag lover, I love the feeling of organisation and readiness it gives me.
In my current use bag (a Speedy 25 in Damier Ebene for any bag lovers out there)I have:

  1. Wallet/notebook in one with pen
  2. Coin purse
  3. Keys
  4. Phone
  5. Tinted moisturiser
  6. Aromatherapy Hand balm
  7. Tissues

Ah, that felt good...Smile

Weirdly I'm loving the amount of people that carry reusable bottles and coffee cups! People always say to me they don't want a reusable one because it's too much to carry, so keep doing what you're doing everyone!

Purse
Church keys
Earphones & ear bud thingys

Little bag with tampon, mini brush, plasters, paracetamol, nail file, mirror.
