My Oliver Bonas Alphabet Makeup Bag (£12.50 here) is soft, durable, and roomy enough to house all of my beauty essentials. The larger pocket at the back is where I keep my bulkier items – my on-the-go makeup bag, sunglasses case and Tangleteezer (which I cannot live without). I always use this in smaller bags and clutches and it’s great for holiday, or when you don’t want to go out with a giant wallet. The All Saints Credit Card Holder in Burgundy (£38 here) was a birthday gift from my parents and it’s fantastic! There’s room for bank cards, IDs, notes and coins, as well as a section in the middle for my business cards. In the suede-textured front pocket, I like to keep my everyday essentials, like my card holder, headphones, keys and mobile phone. As a cross-body it’s brilliant for the tube and having your hands free, and I find it fits everything I could possibly need without looking bulky. I absolutely adore this bag for it’s versatility – you can detach the strap and use it as a clutch in the evening, or wear it as an everyday shoulder or cross-body bag for running errands or shopping. I was umming and ahhing between the Clare V Gosee Washed Leather & Suede Shoulder Bag (£265 here) and the Marc by March Jacobs ‘Moto Mini’ in Metallic Leather (£310 here) for AGES, but eventually settled on the Clare V offering because of the suede front section, yellow-gold detailing and space in both pockets for bigger items. The handbag I purchased had been on my Net A Porter wishlist for a while. Please share your WIMB posts or videos in the comments section below, they are some of my favourites to read and watch – I’m super nosy and like seeing how you all organise your bits and bobs! I recently splurged on a handbag with my March paycheck and I thought now would be a good chance to show you the essentials I carry with me on a day-to-day basis. I’ve never written a WIMB post, probably because until recently I would either shove everything into an old leather tote from ASOS, or use such small cross-body bags that could only fit keys, a purse and my phone.
