Back to School Essentials

I had to go back to school a few weeks ago so I thought I'd share with you my essentials that I keep in my bag and blazer at all times. Most of these are aimed at girls but are easily interchangeable for other genders :)

  • Hair Brush, Bobbles, and Bobby Pins
I change my hair so much throughout the day either due to necessity e.g. I have p.e. so my hair has to be up or just due to boredom, my friends tell me I often change it 6 times in an hour long  lesson! I always carry more than one bobble/bobby pin around because people always come to me needing one.

  • Water
Hydration is important and drinking more water keep your skin clear and glowing. If possible I'd recommend freezing a bottle of water the night before and bringing it the next day, ice water is not only more refreshing but also supposedly good for your metabolism.

  • LipBalm
As I mentioned in this tweet I'm not a fan of chapped lips and they can easily get dry during the colder months which are approaching.


Some more essential include
  • Plasters
  • Tissues and Wet-wipes - for when theres no toilet paper or you have a cold.
  • Mirror
  • Body Spray




  • Hand Sanitizer and Hand Cream - for after touching icky banisters and door handles that are sticky for unknown reasons :S
  • Headphones
  • Gum or Mints (chewing some hubba bubba right now)
