What's In My Handbag?!

Hello folks,

   So, I'm two months into writing this blog 'craic' now and I have to say I'm enjoying it. I admit I never really know what I'm going to write about each week. The first few weeks were really easy as I had loads of inspiration and I was doing two posts a week. In hindsight, I probably threw out too much content early on and struggled a bit the last few weeks with it. But alas, I'll not stress about it. I literally just write about what ever pops into my head each week and there hasn't been any week I've been mad stuck for content yet!

   When I was in Chicago a few weeks ago I bought this gorgeous Kate Spade bag. I just love the colour and it's the perfect size. It's one of those bags you could bring with you as your hand luggage on a flight and fit all your essentials in. Today I said I'd spill it's contents and let you see what my "Handbag essentials"are.

1. iPhone 6 - That's an obvious one, and my car keys!
2. Ted Baker Wallet - This was gifted to me by my cousin Noelene for Christmas 2016 and it comes everywhere with me. It doesn't scratch and is still in perfect condition.
3. Start your Day With Katie Affirmation Book - I carry this book purely because I have a tendency to ruminate. If I feel myself going off on one I'll pull out the book, read the affirmation for the day and usually will feel in better form after it.
4. Hairbrush - I have the knottiest hair ever so I carry a hair brush with me at all times.
5. iPhone charger - It's the age we live in.
6. Forever Living Aloe Vera lip balm - This lip balm is aloe-vera based and contains no chemicals. I often have cracked lips and I find this lip balm very soothing on them.
7. Medication - I have asthma and am on long term daily inhalers and medication for it. This little bag comes everywhere with me.
8. Earphones - I really enjoy listening to audio books and podcasts so I always take my earphones with me to give me that option at all times when I'm out and about. One of my favourite podcasts is Fearne Cotton's Happy Place and I usually listen to this on a Monday evening just after it's released.
9. Moisturiser and MAC strobe cream - I don't like wearing make up every day of the week because I feel it dries out my skin. It could be all in my head but I feel if I have moisturiser and strobe cream on that I have a small bit of a glow!
10. Jenny Glow Pomegranite Noir - It smells gorgeous, it's so cheap. Why would I take it out of the bag?

I hope you are enjoying my blog posts so far. I would really love if you could let me know what kind of content you would like me to produce. There are so many "bloggers" doing the same thing so I'm hoping my blog will be a little different. So please, if there's anything at all you'd like to see me do or write about just let me know. I love writing and this is purely a hobby for me. In fact, you'd honestly be doing me a favour.

Have a good weekend,

Love,
M
