    I Put my phone and bank card in my pocket and that me! What do you put in your handbags??
    make up
    phone
    purse
    keys
    notepad and pen
    alcohol gel (for when the soap has ran out in public bathrooms)
    hospital app cards (i always forget to take them with me to apps so i keep them in there all the time lol)
    and if DS2 is walking and we are not going to be away for long i bung in a couple of nappies and a pack of wipes

    my bad can fit a small army in there. i once even had a gown in it to take down to be altered along with all my usual stuff and its not even that big a bag!

    Yes I would not ever have purse. I don't always take it out though... if I am going to the pub and have jeans on I'll slip some cash in my pocket or I have a smaller purse for my evening bag which is credit card sized.

    I have 3 purses. A regular/med sized one with all my cards and a small one that takes upto 2 cards and some coinage. If I'm hitting the shops I take the bigger purse. Any other time I'll use the little one with my main CC inside. If i'm nipping to the shops to buy milk etc I'll not bother and just stick my card or coins in my pocket. both of these are Radley purses.

    Then, I have a small black glam purse for evenings for my handbag. If i use a clutch I might not even bother with a purse.
