Office/work essentials

Depending on your job, there are some specific items that can help during your day.

If you work in construction, your essentials would include a hard hat, and steel-toed boots, along with sunscreen and sunglasses. If you work in a hospital, you’d look to good quality, comfortable footwear, and an accurate time-keeping device.
When it comes to office work, here are three key items to invest in:

1. Insulated water bottle
You’ll want a sturdy and leak-proof water bottle to ensure you stay hydrated. Opt for a one litre bottle to avoid multiple trips to top up. Yes, at the beginning you may visit the bathroom more often, but your body will become used to the increased water intake, and the benefits will be worth it.

2. Planner
Sometimes there just isn’t enough time in a day. With physical or digital planner, you can at least assign time blocks to make sure the important stuff gets done. A planner is also a good way to balance out work and leisure.

3. Tote bag
To ensure you save money by bringing lunch to work, and to bring the mammoth drink bottle mentioned prior, invest in a spacious work bag to match your personal style. A leather look always exudes class, if that’s what you are going for, otherwise there are numerous other styles and colours out there.
