Lighten Up Your Handbag

Whether you're out at a party or getting ready for a night on the town -- nothing is worse than having to force all your beauty essentials into one tiny clutch bag. There's no reason that you can't look or feel your best with all your favorite products at your fingertips, in a compact form.

Beauty expert Rebekah George showed some of the latest and greatest items that will fit even the smallest of bags.

George said research conducted by British department store chain Debenhams revealed that smaller tech gadgets lighten ladies' handbags and purses. They now weigh 57 percent less than the average of two years ago.

Although this may be the case, George says women still seem to be loading up their bags with many personal items that make their everyday bag seem heavy and cluttered.

"A well organized and less weighty purse will benefit both your body and frame of mind, and improve your style," she said.

The following product descriptions were prepared using information provided by the manufacturers.
