At the beginning a fact
about me: I barely leave my house without a handbag (or a backpack). I have
this little obsession that I must carry something with me and that it must take
several things with me ALWAYS. These stuff include my phone and wallet - in
case of emergency they can save my life or... at least help identification
and/or contact someone of my close people. Ok pretty dramatic but I’m not a
pessimist and I don’t have anxiety. I’m just danger aware. Anyway,
handbags!
Do you
also have that feeling that a woman can’t be fully dressed when she doesn’t
have her handbag?
Personally, I feel odd and somehow like I have forgotten something if it happens that I'm without a handbag.
It’s a detail which most of us carry every day and the stuff
we have there can be... Surprising? Embarrassing? Horrifying?? Well, the black
hole there is definitely one of the nature phenomenons. My black hole is pretty
organised and with time decreased its size. As much as I love big shopper bags but due to
my lifestyle they aren’t very practical. One the way to my car I don't need a lot on the way to my car.
So, my
preferred size is middle one (how cool is that now designers make nearly each
bag in three sizes?!) which is able to fit my for-mentioned phone and not so
small wallet - here we come to ... why do I have huge wallet if I only need a
few plastic cards? Yep, you can never figure out women, you just need to be
one.
Another
... is my keys. Just for a purpose of entertainment I will show you how they
look:
And
believe or not there is only ONE key which I use! The rest is for decoration,
contains some memories and in general the size of it and a furry key chain makes it
extremely easy and quick to find and pick up from the black hole.
After
those absurd I usually carry small cosmetics pouch which doesn’t contain
cosmetics. It hide essentials like migraine pills, clear
nail polish to fix a hole in stockings, a Compeed stick for blisters, nail file and some stuff women need once a month... There is
also a calendar because I’m getting old and things which aren’t written down
don’t exist and of course a little mirror and annual supply of lipsticks.
In fact, eventually me - and probably most girls - can fit all we need into a small crossbody bag but there is this secret power making us to carry a lot of stuff as an exercise to burn our last dounut.
How is your handbag story?? A fan of the big or small ones?
Enjoy my lookbook with one little bag which has been my favourite over last weeks.
