For a woman, her bag is a treasure chest where the craziest things can be found. In that bag, you can find anything from a mini beauty collection to extra underwear, a pair of slippers and an umbrella for rainy days. There’s a lot you can find but they aren’t necessarily what you need. This is why the modern woman rocks! She is the perfect picture of what every woman should aspire to be.

 

Does she exist? Absolutely!

The modern woman is that one who is so organised you can’t find a hair out of place. Even her bag has everything she needs, when she needs it. Not everyone has to be perfect but you can be prepared, even for an earthquake.

 

Okay, so maybe that last one is too much to expect from the modern woman but you get the picture. You can save yourself from wardrobe mishaps, or painful shoes, and even your hair kept out of place if you bookmark this modern woman’s list of things to have in your bag.

 

(Disclaimer: This writer is not a modern woman so this list is compiled with the help of many helpful articles. Remember to add your own ‘Things to add to your bag’ in the comment section).

 

16 things every modern woman should have in her bag

Women are mostly prepared for anything, especially due to the biological nature of their bodies. Here are some items a modern woman needs to have in her bag to be prepared for just about anything.

 

1. Sunglasses

Ladies! Have you ever been caught outside on a sunny day and regret not picking up your sunglasses on your way out? Don’t let it happen anymore and be prepared with a pair in your bag.

2. Moisturiser

There’s nothing worse than a dry and dull-looking skin when you want to radiate all day. You should give your skin a bit more attention by taking care to moisturise during the day.

 

3. Makeup bag

This makes it to the list because there’s nothing more annoying than when you’re looking for a mascara or a favourite lipstick when you need it. Your bag might choose that moment to play hide and seek — it’s bored half the time, so pardon it. Having a makeup purse makes it easier to locate what you need and have your makeup handy. You can pack simple items like mascara, powder, lipstick and eyeliner for quick touch-ups.

 

4. Nail file

This is one of the least recognised items but, if you’re not a fan of chipped nails, then don’t leave your house without it. It’s very lightweight and you would barely know you have it in your bag.

 

5. Hand sanitiser

If you ride transit, then you’re more prone to bacteria and need to keep them off. Sanitisers are very small, cute and portable. They are also effective in keeping your hand germ free. Get one that smells nice as well and moisturises your hands for a double effect.

6. Bobby pins and hairband

Remember how a modern woman never has a hair out of place? This is her trick to achieving that. Use a bobby pin and hairband to keep your hair in place, especially on that bad hair day.

 

7. Wallet

Keeping loose change is very important especially if you commute. Rather than throwing cash in your bag where it could get lost in the midst of other items, you should stock up your wallet. It can be any size but you should have one. A wallet with a card pocket is even better.

8. Mints

“Hellooooo! Hawayuu!” You don’t want to ruin anyone’s day with bad breath or have someone ruin yours. Therefore, you should ensure you are prepared to keep your breath fresh after a meal or even between the day. A mint or chewing gum would be perfect in your bag.

 

 9. Tissue

A tissue can be a lifesaver. It comes about as very useful when you want to wipe something — including your b**t after you use the toilet. It can also be the perfect thing to have lying in your bag when you feel a sneeze coming in.

 

10. Perfume

This is a list favourite. You need to smell like you just dropped from heaven after a meeting with the angels. Maybe there’s no perfume that gives you that exact fragrance, but that scent in a bottle on your table needs room in your bag. A modern woman should have a lingering scent always.

11. Handy snacks

Sometimes you forget to have lunch or are just too busy for it. It’s not healthy but, when this happens, rather than skipping a meal you should take a healthy snack from your bag. It would also help boost your energy at that point in time.

 

12. Pads, tampon or menstrual cup

Dear woman, you may not necessarily like being on your period but what’s even worse is when you’re not ready for it. You may start early or even forget you’re about to start another cycle. This is why having one in your bag can be a lifesaver. Who knows, maybe someone out there might need that pad. It can be a lifesaver for that person.

 

13. Bobby pin

Having a wardrobe disaster can be very upsetting, especially when you’re out for an important meeting. Keep a set of bobby pins handy in your bag to clasp a popped zip, or even a broken necklace.

14. Blotting paper

Whether you do makeup or not, the oil in your face is no respecter of this. You should have a blotting paper handy to dab at that excess oil circulation.

 

15. Pain killers

Now the list is getting long, but keep striking them off. If you have a headache at this point, then that’s why you need a pain killer often. It can be a little aspirin that can save you from a menstrual cramp or a migraine.

 

16. Power bank

These days, especially with the light situation in Nigeria, phone batteries die faster because of the capacity of what they are used for. Therefore, you should be prepared to charge on the go, and a portable charger like a power bank is perfect for this.
