a peek at my bag.

posted on: Monday 28 January 2013


so, after i read charlotte's what's in my bag post, i thought i would share what's in mine because, let's face it, ladies are a nosy lot who love a snoop in other girls/women/ladies bags. i know i do, because sometimes, it makes you think "i should really put one of those in my bag" or "do i really need five packets of tissues in my bag!?!" (that's totally me ok, i have a nosebleed problem :()


so, here you go, this is my bag, it's from h&m (find it here) and i've only had it for a couple of weeks, but i already know it's my new zara bag - aka the huge bag i find a need to fill and cart around everywhere with me - and it's probably going to be my go to bag for the year.

the essentials: phone // purse // glasses // tissues // keys // headphones // diary // uni-ball eye micro pen // umbrella // hand sanitizer // perfume // chewy // lip balm

other stuff i have in there because i have the space: compact mirror // gloves // deodorant // paracetamol // powder // brush

and depending on where i'm going, i'll either have the book i'm currently reading or my bible and notebook.
i also like to carry around one of my cameras if i can, but if i can't manage it, i'll happily just use my iphone if i do need a camera.

if you've done this "tag" then leave the link in the description! 


p.s yay for crappy lighting = crappy quality pictures, fab.

  4. Hey Anna!
    I found your blog through Sprinkle of Glitter the other day, and this post inspired me to do a 'what's in my bag' of my own :) http://polaroidbookshelf.blogspot.com.au/2013/02/whats-in-my-bag.html

    1. thanks jess, that's so nice to hear, especially because i'm in a bit of a blogging lull at the mo - nothing seems worth blogging about!! but i'm so glad to know you like my blog :)

      i love your bag! your mum certainly did a great job picking it out. (i also think your blog name is amazing - polaroids + books = sold ;) )

    2. You might just need some time to relax and recharge your creativity, then you'll be surprised by the surge of ideas you might have!

      Oh, you're too kind! I just wanted a way to combine two of my favourite things, and I guess that was just the way to go :)
