Whilst you're all relaxing reading this, I'll be jumping into the shower, blowdrying and straightening my hair, moisturising like a mad woman then painting my nails, choosing an outfit and collapsing into bed to get some beauty sleep in preperation for my first day at my new job tomorrow!
I thought I'd share my bag with you all, and the things i'm taking with me :)
Bear in mind that I'm based in a head office and my hours are 8:30/9am-whenever I finish! Also, the office isn't in a city or anything like that so unless I take things with me, I can't really get hold of them!
SO, here is my handbag! It's from Marc B (at Topshop) and I bought it a million years ago haha!
Onto the contents:
My epic lunch/snack box (I twitpic'd this earlier)
Bottle of water (always important!)
Filofax Apex
Ryman soft touch notebook (moleskines are SO BLOODY EXPENSIVE! this was £4.50!)
Car/flat keys (and a swarovski keyring that Stew bought me! so pretty!)
Purse (from DC, another gift from Stew)
Umbrella (Primark)
Tissues
Hand food hand cream
Impulse body sray (smells surprisingly good, only for sweaty moments!)
Hello Kitty Mirror (need to sharpie her eyes!)
Hand sanitiser
Mints
Inhaler
Sunglasses
A million pens
(Thanks to Laura and Lucy for recommending hand sanitiser and about a thousand pens, amongst other things)

powder (just a cheap one i want to use up) and kabuki

Harrods Hello kitty purse containing:
Plasters

Ear plugs (I work for an engineering firm and will be spending my time on some sites - lots of noise!)
PHEW! Have I forgotten anything? I hope not because my bag (read:suitcase) weighs a TONNE!

ps - I lost 2.5lb on Weight Watchers this week bringing my Weight Watchers total to 7lb but my overall weight loss total to 12lb!
pps - tomorrow I'm wearing my black M+S pencil skirt, a cute blouse from H+M, a black jacket from La Redoute, thick primark 'super cosy' tights (I have tattoos on my feet!) and black pointy court shoes! :)
may or may not be absolutely completely and utterly shitting myself about being a proper grown up now!
I love how organised you are - totally convincing as a 'proper' grown up - I never remember to take everything I need, I tend to shove powder, keys, mobile, lip balm and a book in my bag then spend the day whinging that I need tissues/hand sanitiser/umbrella/plasters etc!
ReplyDeleteGood luck Kitty Cat, I will have my fingers crossed for you! You will look fit. And you will be wonderful. <3 xxxxxxxxx
ReplyDeleteYou are a very organised lady ! Good luck on your first day :) xx
ReplyDeleteYou'll be brilliant Cat! Love the sound of the outfit, and I reckon you've got everything you should need in your bag.
ReplyDeleteRemember that you earned your job because you were offered it, so be confident in your abilities. BIG firstdayscarygrownupnewjob hugs.
You have the cutest things in your bag, and congrats on your weight loss hun!! :)
ReplyDeletethis looks like a good selection of things, im sure after a few days you might find more things you need or things you can do without, good luck :D

ReplyDeleteWell done on the WW! I lost 1.5 this week, so I'm 10.5 down now - such a great feeling isn't it?! :)
hope you had a nice first day
