Unlike some people, I don’t change my handbag on a regular basis. Once or twice a year I feel the need to change my purse or just buy a new one. I do, however adjust the contents of my totes and satchels. So, here is what’s in my fall handbag!

First off – the handbag!
Whether you choose a backpack, crossbody, tote, or bucket style bag – always go with something you will love! I bought this backpack from Amazon a couple of years ago and I still love it. This is my go-to bag for Fall!
It’s what’s inside that counts!
Besides the usual wallet, keys, phone, sunglasses, and checkbook (do folks still use those?!) there are a few items specific to fall that that are added when the season changes.
Hand Cream
Even though I know I should be showing love to my delicate hands all year round, I really only do so when the cooler temperatures set in. My fave brands include Scentuals and Cake – both Canadian made products that do not disappoint!
Umbrella
We all know how unpredictable the weather can be in Autumn! Being prepared – if your handbag can accommodate one – by carrying a compact umbrella will help to keep you dry when the cool rain hits.
Tissues
Personally, my nose runs all year! However, the crisp air and cool breeze in Fall, makes my sinuses run rampant a little quicker and more often. I always add a cute little package of facial tissues to my bag – along with a little bottle of hand sanitizer!
Extra Lip Balm
Lip balm or hydrating gloss is always a must-have! But when the mercury begins to dip, so does the need for extra lip balm. In Autumn, I make sure I have a hydrating (with SPF) lip balm is nearly every pocket of my hand bag!
Vitamin C
Once the kids go back to school, we immediately add our daily vitamin c back into our morning routine. But I don’t always remember my daily dose before we leave the house. So I try to carry a small bottle in my handbag. Always be prepared, right?!
Just a few extras I always carry with me!
- Dental Floss
- Stainless or Silicone Drinking Straws
- Extra Face Masks for the Family
- Fast Food Coupons
- Sanitizing Wipes
- Earbuds
- Hair Ties
- Gum or TikTaks
