Inside the Pam's Bag

"My bag is my life. In it contains every possible thing I might need, wherever I go, whatever I do."

"It's like a mini-suitcase. My job and life at the moment can be so unpredictable. I need to have everything with me when I go to work."

Pam quite frequently changes which handbag she carries so inside the handbag is quite well-organised. It is also quite full. I get the feeling that she doesn't actually use 1/2 of what's inside. It seems to be there to booost her confidence rather than to actually be utilised...

In Pam's handbag there is:

Wallet -- it's small and compact compared to the handbag itself and very well organised. There are no loose receipts or much small change. Everything has it's place.

6 lipsticks -- these are floating free and of different shades of pink and reds

3 tubes of concealer/foundation -- Pam seems to use concealer the same way she uses lipstick, constantly topping up.

Make-Up Bag -- it's interesting that Pam also has a completely separate make-up bag in her handbag. She explains that the free floating lipsticks and concealers are for touch ups. The make-up bag allows her to take it all off and start again. Which she will do frequently if she is not happy with how she looks.

As a side, Pam explains that how she looks (or perceives she looks) is directly related to how confident she is. So, it is very important that her hair and make up all look good -- especially when she is at work.

Sunglasses and Reading Glasses -- Pam collects posh sunglasses like she collects handbags. She is currently into very large sunglasses. She likes the way they go with her new short haircut.
