What's in my bag?

I've been meaning to do this post for so so long, I've even contemplated doing a Youtube video but I'm still not 100% sure about recording just yet.

Once I get into Youtube a bit more I probably will do an updated version of this, but for now here's the plain old version...

Zara bag - £20

ASOS: Aldo Frisci Studded Purse - £13
Filofax: Raspberry Filofax - £37
Hairbrush, Mirror, Lipbalm, Car Keys
Glasses,  Inhalers, Phone

I do love my Zara bag. It was such a bargain at £20 and my cat Charlie also loves it and has scratched it to death now, so perhaps it's time for a new one. This one is a lovely ruby colour inside, which I love, and it's quite roomy too so perfect for all my junk.

Once I got rid of all the old receipts and general rubbish that was in my bag I was left with this! I got my filofax for Christmas. Every year I get some kind of diary as it's become a bit of a tradition now. My mum got me this one and it's a lovely raspberry colour and it makes me feel all grown up and sophisticated when I use it. I'm glad I got it for Christmas as I probably wouldn't spend almost £40 on it myself!

I recently got the Aldo Frisci Studded Purse from ASOS as I felt it was time for a new one. I wasn't expecting it to be so big to be honest but it's got lots of space for all of my cards and I've actually grown to really like it!

So, those are probably the most interesting items in my bag. I also carry my phone, keys, inhalers, a brush, a mirror and a lipbalm, which is absolutely essential for my dry, cracked lips!

Unlike most bloggers I don't keep any makeup in my bag unless I have a really bad breakout, even then it's probably just my Benefit powder and a brush. I don't wear a full face of makeup everyday so don't need any touch ups etc...

While I do love this bag I am getting the feeling of wanting another one. I particularly like the new city bag, however it's nearly £50, which is a little expensive for me!

What's in my bag?

So, not much going on at the moment to be honest! We're kind of hanging around, waiting for moving day now, which is exactly a week tomorrow! I think we're going to do the majority of the packing at the weekend which I'll look forward to...not.

Yesterday was mine and Vince's 3 year anniversary! We didn't really do anything special as I had work in the day (boo!), but we did go to our favourite Chinese restaurant in the evening which was delicious! They have an all you can eat buffet so we completely stuffed ourselves with food, and pudding too! Although we said we wouldn't buy each-other presents, I was very naughty and brought Vince a shirt that he wanted, hehe. :)

After a lovely meal we came back home and slobbed out on the sofa, watching Heroes! After finishing Prison Break, we needed another long running series to get stuck into! So far it's a hit!

Anyway, onto the main subject of today's post!

A women's hand-bag is like a holy grail that no man should ever go near. I'm not quite sure why as we don't keep anything terribly exciting in our hand-bags do we? I know I certainly don't, however, when someone commented on my giveaway post saying they'd like to see a 'what's in my bag?' post, I had to oblige!

This bag is relatively new and from Primark. I was carrying round a big black satchel from Warehouse but it was just too big to be lugging around with me so I decided to buy a smaller satchel. I actually brought this when the zip on one of my Matalan bags snapped, it was a sign that a new bag was needed!

I love the inside pattern of the bag and how spacey it is. I'm definitely one of those people that keeps all sorts of rubbish in their bag but I've tried to capture everything I have in there on a day to day basis.

So, we have: Inhalers, 2x hand-creams (no idea why I have two?), hair-brush, lip-balm, breakfast biscuits for when I get peckish at work, body spray, deodorant, a book to read on my lunch break, keys, water, phone, iPod and purse!

Interesting huh?
