What’s in the bag?

Everyone who watches that scene in Harry Potter where Hermione pulls all sorts of items from her magical, infinitely deep bag, gets a little jealous. Because secretly we all wish to have that; a bag in which you can fit everything you can think of without it becoming heavier. Though such a bag is not available on the market yet, we still devote plenty of attention to the bags we do have. Most people never leave their house without their bag. It never leaves their side, always has their back, and helps them out in every imaginable situation. Below you can read more about what we all have in our bags.

Things you might need at work

When some people go to work, they only take the basics: lunch, laptop, and maybe a thermos with some hot coffee for the commute. But the more versatile the bag, the more you can bring. So when you see someone walking with her Laptop rugzak, this is what might be in there. Lunch can be more than just a sandwich if a bag has the proper space. A salad, a little container with dressing, and of course cutlery can all fit. As the workday goes on there are plenty of products to help you stay fresh. Deodorants and perfumes are commonly found in bags. Oftentimes, a bag is practically a small medicine cabinet containing painkillers, band aids, and antacids. Whatever ailment you might be suffering from, your bag holds the antidote.

Things to stay comfortable

In everyone’s rugtas you will find at least some kind of beauty product. Depending on your lifestyle this could be a simple lip balm or a completely stuffed makeup bag with hair products and lotions. Another common item found in a bag is wipes, especially when the bag belongs to a new parent. To stay comfortable you have to prepare for every possible situation. Take an umbrella in case it will rain and flat shoes if your high heels become uncomfortable.

Anything can be found in a bag

These items were actually found in bags; a moldy tangerine, a saw, a couple of ostrich eggs, a voodoo doll, a tuft of fur from a dead cat, potatoes, and the list goes on. But before you start judging, try to remember every time you needed something and wished you had taken it with you. When you think about it, the average bag isn't that much different from Hermione’s bag. No, the space is not infinite. But the amount of things you can fit inside is still mind-boggling. So, if you need your own “magic bag", check out the Burkely tas. You will be so prepared for any occasion that your friends won’t believe their eyes.
