A great bag is like your favourite bra. It’s strong, supportive, complements any look, and is chock full of the ‘good stuff’. Wink, wink!
But jokes aside, a sturdy bag is perhaps the modern woman’s most revered accessory. It has to be stylish, functional, and organised enough to hold something for every emergency, and then some more.
But with great power and a whole load of stuff comes the possibility that your life tote might just turn into an abyss of lost things, full of clutter, used receipts, and spare change.
To help you avoid that inevitable fate and the accompanying frustration, I’m taking you behind the scenes and into my bag to show you how I prep, organise, and pack my life bag.
