Purse Essentials

Purse from Target: Since spring is nearly here (fingers crossed!) I decided to treat myself to a pretty tiffany blue purse. I love these sorts of Easter egg colours to add pretty bits of spring to daily looks. I’m also a girl who loves practicality and this side bag is just that; it’s perfect for travel with its zippers and easy to carry because it just sits across your body.  Aside from just being useful and perfect for spring, I also think it’ll look great in the summers for those bohemian looks that call for a bit of turquoise. 

Wallet by Jessica Simpson: There’s no hiding that I love leopard print which is why when I first spotted this printed beauty at Winners I just had to have it! It’s one of those prints that embodies bold, playful & edgy style and yet it acts as a neutral, making it one of the most versatile prints out there. Every time I see this printed beauty I can’t help but fall in love with it all over again! 

Neutral Ring from Rw&Co: I always carry a piece of jewelry in my purse. One of my favourite ways to transition an item from day to night it with accessories and this nude ring is one of my go-to pieces to add a bit more glam to my outfit. 

Nail File: There’s nothing worse than being at work, or out with a friend, and finding that you have a scratchy & rigid nail; Everything you do ends up being interrupted by it! This floral nail file called to me while I was grocery shopping and so it’s the newest addition to my bag.

Sunglasses from Target: The sun is shining, sunglasses are a must. Need I say more?

Hemp hand lotion c/o The Body Shop:  it seems I am in a constant battle with my hands to keep them soft rather than dry, rough and edgy. To end this (irritating) war I use my Hemp Hand Lotion c/o The Body shop. I would compare it almost to a foot butter as it is so thick and heavy but it absorbs quickly, leaving little oily residue on your hands. So far this year I have tried a slew of hand lotions, only to find that this heavy lotion is the only one that truly remedies my dry cracked hands. I actually have received many compliments on its smell being earthy, similar to patchouli oil or my favourite – “like a little escape to the cabin”.

Dragon Fruit Lip Balm c/o The Body Shop: I recently was sent The Body Shop’s Lip Foundation Balm and it also has been working miracles on my chapped lips; though it doesn’t have a tint to it, it’s perfect for those moments when you need a quick fix without the worry of applying a tint. This super affordable mango-scented balm actually feels more like a cream formula which is quite soothing & soft.

Fresh Sugar Lips Treatment: Like my hands, my lips also get very dry and it seems like I am on the constant hunt for something to cure this long-standing problem.  My favourite treatment for my lips has to be the Fresh Sugar Lips lip balms, the colours I have here are plum & petal. Sugar Lips balms are amazing for a treatment that not only smooth’s and softens lips, but they also add a pretty touch of colour. Though, at $26 for just one tube, it’s a treatment that definitely airs on the side of luxury.
