I've been wanting to share a 'What's in my work bag' video since a long time now, and although I shared one reel on Instagram back in 2022, I hadn't written a post here. Also, that wasn't a planned video. Just one fine day I came home and realised there's still time for dinner, so quickly set up my tripod and started shooting the video. So you can say, that was a raw, unfiltered video in which even I wasn't aware what surprising element I would find in my bag.

And now, for the reason why you're here and the reason why I am writing this post in the first place is the 2024 edition of the What's In My Work Bag. This wasn't a planned video but I had cleaned up my bag, put the coins back in the wallet, and ensured there's no mess in. Before we proceed with the product links, which I know you all have been asking me for, let's watch the video: What's In My Work Bag

To be very honest, I was meaning to buy a new bag which is why I shot this video so late. So now my work bag setup doesn't include a second lunchbox or a third laptop bag. I carry one large tote, and fit everything inside. Life becomes messy sometimes, but usually I am glad as I know for sure I may forget my lunch bag in the train or in the auto. 

I had purchased this tote in 2022 I think because I wanted a black tote that's large, sturdy and goes with all the outfits. This Accessorize London Tote has an external small zip and a large zip with 2 interior compartments. There's a cloth running in its interiors. The straps are quite sturdy as I had to get them repaired just once. Overall, I would recommend their bags. 

Price - Rs 6495

I have invested in good claw clips. Currently I have three clips which I use alternatively. I like to clip them to the strap of my handbag as it's easier to take it and put it back when needed. Also, it's been four months I am using this method and I haven't misplaced even one clip. Nothing special about this Claw Clip by H&M, just that it's super sturdy and is made of metal.

Price - Rs 399

I had purchased this wallet way back when I was urgently looking for a nice wallet that matches with my black tote. It's surprisingly affordable. The wallet is handy, has a zip, which keeps my money safe and has a mini compartment to store coins. 

Price - Rs 999

This is my current favourite lipstick and current favourite shade because it makes my face look brighter and happier. The shade is light pink 'Gul 17'. The consistency is smooth so it glides really well and doesn't chip off. Also can be applied on cheeks as a blush. 

Price - Rs 675

I don't have a specific link to this product but something similar I found on Amazon. I fold my disposable masks and store them in this pouch so they're in a convenient place and do not get dirty in the bag. 

This one is a nice sanitizer by Bath And Body Works. Although you don't get the clean feeling which you get when you use other medicinal brands like Dettol, the fragrance is tangy and sweet, making it a cute purchase. A little pricey for that small bottle but worth it.

Price - Rs 299

Well I use lunchboxes by three different brands: Vaya, Tupperware, and one more brand.

Price - Vaya 4,480 for 3 lunchbox tiffins

Already my bag is so heavy and on top of that carrying a big bottle drove me nuts. I never carry a bottle unless it's summer. Because forget April, but in May, I get dehydrated and fussy beyond a level and there's nothing that can save me then but a bottle of water. This glass bottle by Miniso is 300ml, cute, and still less heavy.  

Price - Rs 350 approx.

I never knew when these wipes came in my bag, but now they're just sitting. I don't really use them and they will hang out with me until I take them out or finish them up.

This was my 30th birthday gift from my husband. Though I previously owned Ray-Bans, I am someone who is very bad with eye products and end up losing or getting scratches on them. But this pair is love. I got it from Titan Eyecare before my trip to Kerala.

Price - Rs 10,490

This mouthwash is better than those Listerine and Colgate ones. It instantly freshens you up, and not just your mouth! The lemony flavour is amazing, and not something you would imagine! Being alcohol-free, you can expect lemon soda without the fizz!

Price - Rs 299 for 300ml 

I had got these from Dubai as a souvenir to my best friends. I may have forgotten to give it to someone because of bad timings and my eventual forgetfulness, so I still had one left with me. I cannot find an exact product for you but you can check for similar sequinned keychains on Amazon.

This is a truly gorgeous fragrance by Miniso. It's fruity yet not overpowering. Lasts really long and is a tiny glass bottle, which you can carry with you as a top up perfume. It runs in 30ml and its a cute pink bottle.

Price - Rs 400

This Mimosa & Spearmint hand cream has a light fragrance, which reminds you of sea breeze. It smells like this exotic facial masks, which instantly revitalise you. The consistency is between runny and thick (more towards thick) and isn't too heavy on the skin. 

Price - Rs 599

And that's all there is in my work bag. And of course the charger and the AirPods!
