What’s In My Bag – Beauty Edition
You always see me carrying a bag in just about every post. Today I thought I would share with you what is actually in my bag – my tried and true beauty essentials. When I am out for an evening event I tend to carry a smaller bag. When I am in that situation I carry my wallet, lipstick, phone and keys. But any other time I am carrying a much larger bag, so that I have all the essentials I need to get through a long day.
When it comes to beauty essentials, I always like to carry lipstick, pressed powder, and lip liner. If I know I need to spruce up my hair I will also carry hairspray and a brush. Sometimes I like to put my hair in a pony tail or bun, so I also carry these hair elastics. With all these items (plus a few extra) I have everything I need to get through a long day!
YSL LouLou Medium Shoulder Bag
Meet my latest bag obsession! I’ve had the LouLou toy bag for quite some time, and I really like the style and not to mention the leather is soft yet durable. So I decided to invest in the medium Lou Lou bag as it is much more practical for holding many things. This bag is lightweight yet roomy. It even has dividers and a zip compartment for holding smaller things. This bag is easy to dress up or down and looks so chic with jeans and heels or even my workout clothes! This bag is definitely worth the investment!
You can see this bag holds everything I need and more. Keep scrolling to read about all my favorite essentials that I carry every day!
