Not my usual type of review but I was gifted this cute cotton bag and items to test out to see if it would be handy for all those #bookevents I plan on attending this year and I thought I’d share my thoughts. Scroll down to the end for more details from Cotton Bag Co press release!
My thanks to Rose and @cottonbagco

● Bluetooth tripod selfie stick – to get the perfect angle everytime. LOVE
● Pocket for valuables – to keep your valuables safe TOO CUTE
● Pop up reflector – to get the best lighting for your selfies NOT FOR ME ?
● LED ring light – for that added selfie glow AWESOME

I’m not keen on the pop up reflector as (a) I won’t use it and (b) I can’t get it to close down and pack away. The bag itself is great quality, sturdy (for all those #books!) and a good size. Love the mini #ringlight and tripod. The guide wasn’t in the package I received but that’s ok – as I like to experiment on my own and wouldn’t consider myself a ‘selfie queen’ ?
