THE 7 UNUSUALS IN MY BAG
2:15 AMHello its Friday!! TGIF * dancing*
I get so excited when its Friday and i know you do also lol....
This morning i was swapping my handbag for another that fits my outfit, so i poured out everything from my handbag on the bed and i found out i was carrying some "unusual items" in my handbag that some people wouldn't. I call them "unusual" because i know in my Sister's and my Friends' bag you wouldn't find any of these things in them.
For me, these items are necessary and they come as a savior in my time of need.
Below are the list of items i found in my bag
Super Glue:
You might be wondering "why should i have this in my bag?" Have ever had your shoe embarrass you in a gathering or the your heels suddenly give way ? well i have! And this has helped me out of those situations and made it look like nothing happen. Ever since then i always keep one in my bag.
Sometimes you do the maths for your menstrual circle and you find out that the 'RED ROBOT' decides to show up a day or two earlier than you calculated. It is advice-able to always carry a pad or tampon in your bag just so u prepare your self for your 'monthly visitor'.
Aspirin
This is specially needed for those who have painful menstruation. Instead of looking all moody at work because of painful menstrual cramp this should help relieve the pain.
Needle and Thread/Pins
I remember one day on my way to work, a stranger walked up to me telling me that i had a slit on my skirt., you can imagine the look i had on my face. I quickly got to the office, rushed to the toilet took my needle and thread and sew my skirt. Then again i thought, what if i didn't have this in my bag? hmmmmmm.... This can also help if your buttons pops out.
Elastic Band
This i have well over 10 of it in my bag. I use it to tie stuff together and also to pack my hair when i forget my hair scrunchie at home
Mint
Almost everyone has this in their hand bag. You know those times you eat some certain kind of food especially those Italian and Chinese spiced dishes (garlic) and it gives you an awful breath? lol it happens to everyone of us. A good mint will do wonders in no time.You don't want your mouth smelling when you talking to someone hehehehe (sorry i have eaten my mint half way *cover face*)
Sanitizer
I love Nigerian dishes yep! because am Nigerian and no other food taste better and is more nutritional than our local cuisine. Sometimes after eating a bowl of "fufu" you find out it leaves your fingers with its signature smell. Others might opt for a hand cream but i rather use a sanitizer just so my hands are thoroughly clean and smells fresh too.
There you have it!
What are those unusual things in your handbag?
Do you find any of the above items?

Hand bags are like accessories, only the prints change

Delete@anonymous2 carrying a super glue is needed because you might not know what will fall of like your leather wrist watch no matter how expensive it is might embarrass us. And also investing in shoes is not what she's talking please read properly. If you like buy a shoe of 1mil the day it will disgrace you it will disgrace you so please say something else
