OOTD and whats in my bag??

This is the last week off before i start working (the hospital life of overwork and underpaid)..so im making the most out of it! my husband has the day off today after working weekends. so we decided to go out on a little lunch/day date :) (sorry for the stiff pose, im no good with camera, ive got the quirks with cameras!)


here's what i wore:
i like to keep it simple for daytime :) and im a simple person..so..
top- Topshop
bottom- legging frm miss selfridge
shoes- Topshop
handbag- miu miu

makeup- lipgloss (Nars-frisky summer)and a smudge of eyeliner only ..oh and mascara.

we had a nice time..met some friends and i managed to get 2 slips from All Saints for only 9 pounds!! big sale!! go check it out if you havent!

whats in my bag???



this is my handbag of the month. its an old bag from miu miu raspberry colour with a cute little bow on each side. i think i got it last year but havent reached for it much until this month that is,i've been using it almost everyday this month.anyhoo, here's whats in my bag (nothing exciting really just bits and bobs of stuff):

keys
purse- i like them big and massive because i keep all of my reciepts.a habit i pick up from my husband.
pen- at least one! you need a pen.just in case.
a book- book is a must in my handbag. thats why i like my handbag big and roomy :) right now im reading 'Watching the English' by Kate Fox. its a good book,she's sooo funny. if ure into books, i suggest you pick this up.
ipod- i need this. i'd rather not have makeups in my bag than not having ipod.

Makeup
- 2 lipsticks : very variable, some days i'll bring what im wearing and on other days i just throw in a couple of lipsticks or..whats even better,i have lipsticks that permanently stay in my handbag (im a mess). Today i have with me Dior Addict 346 (beautiful coral colour)and the other one i forgot the name,sorry.

- lipgloss: nars frisky summer today. on other days its some random Mac dazzleglass.

- lipbalm: Mac tinted lip conditioner in Fuchsia fix (ive had this for a year, still havent managed to fnish it off yet.not even close! sighhh)

- Burt's bees lemon butter cuticle cream: i use this on my fingernails and hand as my hands are always dry and the skin around my nails even crack at times!(ouch!) i knoww..should look after my hands better. so this is my effort,carrying this stuff around.if only i can remember to use it.

*ladies.. notice whats missing?? i dont carry around any compact powder/concealer or any base at all for that matter for touch-up. weird huh?? im just another one of those that dont do touch ups.im strange like that..i know.

ok got to go now, cooking time! :)

ladies, what are you wearing today?? what is a MUST in your handbag???
ciao bellas xx

  3. Hey! I love your handbag! For me a must is definitely my wallet. Then my keys and a hand towel (Japanese bathrooms don't usually have paper towels). Like you I don't do touch ups during the day either. I'll just blot with oil blotting paper if I get a bit oily and reapply lipstick.
