Over the past year and a half we\u2019ve all had to adjust to the differing levels of lockdown, as well as new ways of going about old tasks – like shopping. Online shopping has experienced a meteoric rise in popularity (due to necessity), whilst some have perfected the art of dashing quickly in and out to avoid too much contact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With the vaccination schedule in full swing and the third peak behind us, confidence is slowly returning to enjoy some retail therapy – at the actual stores. It\u2019s time to dust off your long-forgotten handbag and prepare for safe outings in the new reality. The team at Playgirl share some essential items you need in your handbag: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Covid essentials<\/em><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n You can never be too safe, so make sure you\u2019re well stocked with a travel sized sanitizer, a well-fitting mask and a spare just in case. You might also want to include some alcohol-infused sanitizer wipes for the car or table at your coffee stop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Staying fresh<\/em><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Now it might have been a while since you left the house, so make sure you have this little trio to help take you from feeling drab, to feeling fab in a flash: your favourite Playgirl perfumed body spray, a travel-sized (folding) hairbrush and the ever-necessary mint or chewing gum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Be prepared<\/em><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n There is nothing worse than being caught off guard and unprepared for little mishaps during the day, from having a little sniffle and no tissue, to losing a button and needing a quick fix! These key items will arm you against life\u2019s mishaps: Travel pack of tissues; a hair tie; basic medication for a headache or indigestion; sanitary products; safety pins; a little snack and lip balm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Fully charged <\/em><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Our cell phones have become so much more than just a communication device: it\u2019s the office, the camera, the social media connector and the emergency essential. Make sure you stay connected and carry a charged power bank or charger cable. Don\u2019t forget your earphones so you are able to listen to music, take a call or watch funny cat videos without anyone knowing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n You\u2019re ready for your safe return to the mall! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Over the past year and a half we\u2019ve all had to adjust to the differing levels of lockdown, as well as new ways of going about old tasks – like shopping.
