A Guide to the Fashion Girl’s Favorite Beauty Accessories

Perfectly styled outfit? Check. Obvious fashion sense? Double check. But no matter how good she looks, a cool, fashionable girl is nothing without a bag filled with essentials—one she’ll likely carry with her on every date, and maybe even a laptop for a full day of socializing. Figuring out what belongs and doesn’t belong in your bag is both an art and a science—a balancing act that ensures you have everything you need and nothing you don’t.

Now picture this: you quickly run to the bathroom after lunch and realize your lipstick has faded. In an ideal world, you would have a tube of lip balm ready to go. Or, worse yet, it’s 4pm and despite your best efforts to control oil, you still look super dewy. Wouldn’t it be great to use setting powder to control oil quickly? At dinner, your friend tells you that you have spinach in your teeth. Instead of standing up from the table, you pulled out the Christmas gift your boyfriend had given you and carefully pulled out the rogue green mirror. You can rummage through the dark hole in your bag for all this gear, but wouldn’t it be nice if everything was neatly packed into a nice toiletry bag?

Think of your handbag as a canvas and its design as your main thread: a pouch that tucks comfortably into the bag is your foundation; a beautiful hand cream, a cute little comb and an elegant compact that closes in a satisfying way. Click is your signature prosperity. Leave a little extra space and at least you’ll feel prepared no matter what the day’s agenda is.
