Winter Essentials for your Handbag

With temperatures constantly dropping, winter has a knack of bringing you down with it. To fight off the perils of this crazy cold season we’re suggesting a list of five essentials you should be carrying in your handbag right now.

First on our list of goodies is the limited edition Vaseline Queen Bee lip therapy. This honey infused based lip balm will keep your lips moist and protect it from drying by locking moisture in. Manufactured by Vaseline, the infamous household brand and its core ingredient being petroleum jelly, gives us confidence that this product will not disappoint.

Second is our favourite feel good item, My Burberry a women’s fragrance by the so named. Endorsed by the iconic fashion Kate Moss and Cara Delevingne the fragrance is inspired by the iconic Burberry trench coat. With scents that promise to have captured the fragrance of a London garden after the rain, we could see not a better fit. The floral tones of sweet peas, bergamot, geranium and patchouli will lighten any gloomy day giving you that nostalgic spring feeling.

Feeling good in winter mostly means that you are feeling warm too. We are so inspired by the multiple uses of the snood that it has become item number three on our list. Available at most chain stores a snood is an infinity scarf that not only keeps the neck warm but can easily serve as a protector for your hair on those rainy days.

Number four on our list is a hot accessory you should not be without; elongated gloves. A break from the boring old knitted glove, this hot item gives you that extra class and sophistication on those winter days you need it most.

Last but not least is an item we couldn’t resist and is actually the foundation that makes our list. Who else is fed up of having dry hands? The winter months, when the weather is colder, can affect your hands and cause dryness. Preventing dry hands is of course the best solution. We recommend using this top product, Aveeno, daily to fix dry skin and protect your body against the harsh weather.
