When you become a mum, it's inevitable that your normally pristine and fancy handbag becomes a holdall for basically your life.
It's the carrier of your wallet, and your child's dirty socks. It holds your dearest treasures (like your phone charger) and items that you haven't quite found a home for yet (like that weird squishy toy your little one brought home from school).
So, if you haven't had a good root in your bag recently, we dare you to take a peep now, and we guarantee you'll find at least one of these...
If you haven't had a good root in your bag recently, we dare you to take a peep now, and we guarantee you'll find at least ONE of these...
1. Snotty tissues
That are definitely not yours. Vom.
2. A tiny plastic toy
Probably from McDonald's or the like.
3. A sock
Because you wanted to keep it in a safe place 'till you found its match.
4. A leaky pen
That you couldn't possibly throw away... sure, you never know when it might come in handy, like
5. A mushed up lipstick
That your kid had used to draw smiley faces on the car window.
6. A brochure for a spa resort
That you told yourself you would absolutely treat yourself to. That was 12 months ago.
7. An expired coupon
That should have been used in 2016.
8. 50 million receipts
Because you never know when you might need to return something.
9. A broken bobbin
That you insist on keeping because, sure, you can always tie a knot on the end and it'll be 'as good as new'.
10. Crumbs
From some unknown source.
11. Bobby pins
In case of an emergency.
12. A dried wipe
That has some sort of yellow stuff on it.
13. A phone charger
Because the fear of your phone running out of battery is just too real.
