Over the last years I have gone smaller and smaller with my bags and earlier this year I wanted to buy myself a nice leather designer handbag. I never owned a designer bag before and not wanting to spend the earth I opted for a small one. I am talking about the Rebecca Minkoff Mini Mac Bag. I have seen them time and time again in countless youtube videos and blogs, leaving me longing for one of my own. And when Shopbob had a sale I had to have it. It is a small bag but what I like about it is that you can only carry your essentials and not fill it up with unwanted stuff. It has three compartments, two smaller ones were I keep my I phone, make up, lipsticks and a little perfume. And in the main space I just keep my purse.
It is a really nice bag to have especially when you are out on a shopping trip or just for every day use.
My Purse is from Ralph Lauren which I found for a complete bargain in TK Maxx a while ago. It fits all my cards, notes and has a zipper compartment at the back for coins. What more do you need?
I was so happy when I found it, gotta love TK Maxx.
Most of the time I carry around 2-3 lip products or sometimes even more. I am really into my nudes at the moment so the ones I have been using is the 17 lipstick in beehive and a small shiseido lipstick in the colour RS306 which came as a gift with some skincare I bought a while ago. Both of them are really nice and moisturising on the lips,perfect for every day wear.
Another make up item that I can never be without is my pressed blotting powder by mac in the shade medium dark. This is such a lovely powder for touching up during the day. It easily absorbes any oil build up that I get on my cheeks and forehead during the day and doesn't look cakey .
Last but not least my fragrance of choice is Viktor & Rolfs Flowerbomb. What can I say about this gorgeous scent? The clue is in the name, this is a sweet but delicate fragrance with a flowery bouquet. It last on me all day and I always get so many compliments when I am wearing it.
Now that the winter is just around the corner I have to also get myself some hand creme as I can never be without it really. I would love to know your handbag essentials and every day things that you carry around with you.
I love the colorful wallet - I really should go to TK Maxx more often :o). Xx
