You don’t want your handbag, briefcase, purse, or pockets to look overpacked with items, but a few small items may be helpful to maintain your attire throughout the day.
The following travel size items are convenient and useful: hairbrush or comb, extra hair ties, clips, and bobby pins, deodorant, mints (but do not eat mints while you’re meeting people and talking), dental floss, lint-roller, compact mirror and compact makeup for touch-ups, any necessary personal toiletries, hand sanitizer, and fragrance-free hand lotion.
