Changing from one handbag to another.

Is there a secret to this that I haven't mastered? I am thinking along the lines of maybe an inner pouch which holds all the rubbish essentials which would make changing accessories easy. When I decide to take a different bag I invariably forget to transfer something essential. Such as concealer on a spotty day. The other option, duplicates of everything, is a real pain too.

Maybe we can compile a list of 'handbag essentials'. I can then make sure I take the necessary items everywhere.

Stylish and organised ladies - any tips?

Hmm. John Lewis seemed to have an extensive selection the other day but I wasn't paying enough attention to say for certain they will have what you want, but it may be worth a look.

My pet hate is when you find the type of purse you are describing.... then discover it has a keyring inside it!?

i am in aquabead hell at the moment

yes - wtf is with the keyrings???

NomDePlume · 08/01/2009 17:36

why do they do that ?

Even worse is the keyring inside a handbag, who's going to use that ?! All your stuff would fall out of the bag as you went to tip it up to get the blasted key to the lock. Not to mention how the feck you'd get it in the car ignition....

I have a key ring on a ribbon in my hand bag and it's useful. I can always find my keys. I can clip them off to open door and then clip them back on again instantly.

Very handy, honestly!
