GET A HANDLE - WHATS IN MY BAG

After seasons of cross-body domination, top handle bags are finally back on, well, top. Polish up those nails, as many of designer brands are promising plenty of wrist worship to come.

When we think of glamour, a sense of dressed-up dazzle (lipstick , heels, dramatic clothing, the works) often comes to mind.

But true glamour is more than that. It's a can't-quite-put-your-finger-on-it allure, a heady mix of mystery and bravado, and, most importantly, a sense of genuinely not giving AF about what anyone else thinks.

And speaking of glamour, getting dressed up is very much the mood of the season; even the humble cardigan has had a glitzy makeover this autumn. Perhaps this is reaction to the recent athleisure moment or simply bc, in difficult times, we all crave a little fun and escapism.

It's fine right now to look like you've made an effort. Take inspiration from the late, great Nora Ephron, who summed it up with her words "Believe me, if I looked good, it wasn't an accident."

Of course, hand-in-hand carrying your purse is having your beauty essentials with you all time. So I'm super lucky to have this little-perfect-size makeup bag. Thank you for Klorane team, who send me this as gift.

Plus they totally know how i feel about a little shimmer & glitter, focuse on details and not to forget amazingly scented products.

My favourite new mascara in a long while, this is not for those in want of a subtle look. But if big, bold lashes are your poison, step this way. The YSL waterproof volume effect mascara no1, if perfect for you.

it's all very well telling woman to scale back on foundation for fall, but many want coverage year-round. So sexy autumn nights in a bottle. This lightweight lotion gives cheeks this glowing complexion, yet covering well the darkness underneath your eyes and some impurities, if you might have one. My absolute new favourite is Dr Irena Elis CC intense formula with SPF10, which is more like a skin care rather than your usual foundation aka makeup.

In many wearable shades, this Rosy grown-up shade is my far favourite from Giordani Gold collection. Not jammy, runny or glittery. Perfect for throwing in your makeup bag or purse.

Also can't forget little pick-me-up energy boost. At the moment Im a Big Fan Girl over Woman's Best shakes. They are delicious,so easy to prepare and carry all day with you. I like to add the powder into the shaker and when I'm ready to drink it or I feel a little bit hungry and I'm out-about ----- just add cold water or milk of your choice. But because its kinda sweet for my liking and creamy I just use water. Vanilla tastes super natural and non artificial side taste or smell.

And Even my keys are colour coordinated. If you keys look a like, or you have many, just use a nail polish of your choice and give them a little makeover. Im a junkie for glitter and everything sparkly so I used two different glitters. All about in my video. But yeah, defiantly have a little DIY with your keys and they won't just looks Fab, but that way you will be super organised as well. And extra tip for you, Glitter polish has a long lasting powers, and don't forget to top it up with a fast dry Top coat!

I adore these lipstick, saturated with moist, comfy colour. I wear Giordani Gold "Pink secret", a natural rose, for meetings, dinner dates, and everything in between. Plus how gorgeous is this vintage looking , metal package. If your lipstick could be a Lamborghini then this lipstick is a Win-Win in your makeup bag. Click-Click if you open and closing it.

'in short, i can't imagine you won't be ready for a little more glamour in your life, whatever form that takes, after reading this. And if in doubt, may I suggest channeling a little CICI AF attitude? It's the perfect accessory this season -- try it and see.
