Ladies,

Thank you for taking the time to read this. I am new and would love your advice on the best handbag kit for a working girl. I am also new to this profession. I gather from previous threads that wet wipes (and obviously protection) are essential. Is there anything else you would advise?

Also what do you generally wear to a hotel outcall?

Many thanks 

Ah, I am bag lady! I have everything in my bags! Yes, bags.

I have a small handbag which contains:
makeup
toothbrush & paste, deodorant, aqueous cream (for washing delicate ladybits) and a little hotel showergel for if I end up in one of those bizzare bathrooms with no soap 
handcream, lipbalm and sanitiser gel
umbrella
paracetamol, plasters, throat sweets etc.
diapragm (I use this instead of sponges)
spare glasses, contact lens case with solution, eye drops, spare lenses
tissues
taxi money home - never rely on the client actually paying!
phone to keep on during bookings (only my security contact has the number for this, I switch my other phone off so it doesn't disturb us)
spare stash of condoms, various sizes, and lube
little sewing kit (one of those hotel ones)
notebooks and pens
a lighter - even if you don't smoke this is useful for clients who do, but would waste 15 mins looking for their lighter then trying to light their cig on the cooker 
chewing gum
business cards in little holder
keys to incall apartment and home
ALSO this is where my money goes when I get paid - this bag does not leave my sight! If I use the bathroom this comes with me (if the client questions it just say you want to touch up your makeup), and if I had to leave in a hurry this is the bag I'd grab - but if I did have to leave it then I don't have anything with my address or real name in there, and I have a spare set of keys at a friends.

Haha Stephanie that is an impressive amount of bag!

My handbag I take to short outcalls has:

Condoms (lots of them,way more than I'll ever need, just to be sure)
Lube
A couple of toys
A change of stockings (in case of ladders)
A purse (with taxi money and a bit of change for buying a drink if I get there early or have to wait around after)
Makeup essentials (eyelash glue, concealer, lipstick & gloss)
Wet wipes
Work phone
ID

Why do I have ID? Because some hotels won't let non residents in late at night without one, apparently. I was lucky the first time it happened to me that I'd packed in a hurry and had forgotten to take my ID out of the handbag I was using that night. I always keep the ID in a zip up part of the bag though, so the client won't spot it fast if he dives in for a rummage while my back's turned.

For hotel out calls, day or night, I dress smart and conventional, nothing flashy or sexy or interesting. Usually black pants and a white shirt, with a casual jacket over the top. Unless I'm at a hotel that wants to see ID I never even get looked at by reception.

I have a new thing 

Today I was given an attack alarm. I do already have one, but as it's on the keys to my incall apartment, I'd need to make it to the door to set it of... so when I was offered another I took it, and I've attatched it to the bag I keep my condom stash in, which is either on the bedside table or at the top of my bag during appointments.

So, anyone trying anything nasty... 

Never needed to use an alarm yet, but it doesn't hurt to have it.

Thank you Cindy for the welcome and advice- it would be a hotel outcall, but with me working for an agency.

Thank you Stephanie for your truly comprehensive answers and advice. I am printing out your list to use as a checklist when I go out, so so useful, especially the part about tights and contact lenses!

Krystal- thank you for the warning about ID, as I look a bit younger than my age, it would probably be useful anyway if I wanted to have a drink with a client!


I am so glad I found these boards, it's nice to be compeletely honest (albeit behind a pseudonym) once in a while!

Hi newgirl!

If you are completely new and haven't done so already, make sure you have a good read through the articles on the main SAAFE site.

There are other threads about handbag kit here, and one about hotel outcalls here whh might be helpful too (there are loads but these are two recent ones I remember). The only other thing I would say is that if you are going to carry ID with you (I don't take anything identifying me and never have) then be sure to hide it very well.

Welcome to SAAFE and remember we're all here for any other getting started questions .

My head size handbag normally has: various size condoms, lube, flavoured lube, something for massage, mini vibrator, rabbit vibrator, anal vibrator, strap on, anal vibrator for him, spare hold ups, heels, a spare outfit, mini mouthwash, ciggies, make up bag, hairbrush, cab fare, oyster incase I go crazy and get the tube home, can of red bull.

Offt, that's a lot, no wonder I break my handbags.

How embarrassing if you accidently left your handbag in the taxi and had to describe the contents to claim it. It doesnt bear thinking about! 

- Condoms
- Lube
- Tissues
- Phone
- Oyster Card
- Body Spray - for spraying the bad guys in the face
- Hygiene wipes
- A tube map

I've probably forgotten some things...
