As you clean yourself don’t you think your hand bag too needs to be tidy and clean? Out of the plethora of things which ladies carry, the handbag is one of the important things. It may signify your taste, style and also class. Besides style there are a few important things to keep in mind when using hand bags.

Organisation is important

The most important step is separating items so they are easy to access. Use small cosmetic bags to store essential handbag items separately. For most, three main pouches should be enough – that is one pouch for makeup, one for medicine such as pain killers etc and one for your USB, phone charger etc.

Hidden compartment

Make yourself a sneaky hiding place to keep your valuables safe in your bag by cleaning out an old lotion bottle big enough to hold important items like your phone, keys and cash.

Play safe with cards and notes

Many of us keep our cards and money in the same wallet. But with many cards around sometimes it could be messy. Make your life easier with a small purse with coins or cash and the cards that you use often. In another wallet keep the cards that you do not use on a daily basis.

Travel light

You should not stuff your handbag with anything and everything. Also there will be issues if you are used to carrying heavy bags on a daily basis.

Clean it

The handbag needs to be cleaned. If you are someone who goes out often then there is a greater chance of the bag being dirty. It is necessary to clean the hand bag at least once a week.

You know the best!

Having an expensive bag does not mean that it is the best. You also must think of your comfort. Even if it does not look that great it should be something which meets your requirements and needs.
