To summarise the contents of my handbag day-to-day; one can expect a weighty mix of sexed up Mary Poppins practical …peppered with chewed up pencils, screwed up receipts and a sea bed of grab-ready haribo.
If you got this far and don’t feel you can relate, let me tempt you with my next investment prop tote for summer? Feel free to click off and enjoy.
My 2015 self could never have predicted the change of course my still-modest blog career/bag requirements would take. Everyday I wake up and check my pulse (then insta, then dog) making sure it wasn’t a dream, and then I scamper together my ‘hashtag outfit-of-the-day’ and spend the golden hour capturing my best selfie for the cherished community.
Again, if you’re reading this and cannot relate, let me tempt you with my next investment denim purchase for summer. Feel free to click off and enjoy.
Yep blogging my way into 2016, I suddenly realised arriving to meetings with my ifamily in a bag-for-life was just not on brand.
And if I’m honest, as much as i hate love the canvas and velcro satchel-threats in PC World, when J reasoned that I buy something fit for purpose I threw my toys out the pram and sized up some tasty vintage Birkins. Incidentally no Birkin will accomodate my space grey 12-inch retina display macbook once the lead and chargers are tucked in for the ride.
Really disappointed about that.
Instead, I’ve gone for an altogether different bag-for-life. A buttery leather weekender with shiny hardware, curb appeal and exponential room for when I need it. Majorly practical, sartorial real-estate, straight up cross-body goals… amirite?
