Renowned celebrity stylist Ellis Ranson, who has worked with stars like Kate Ferdinand, Megan McKenna, and Ferne McCann, reveals her must-have handbag essentials for the red carpet. In her latest TikTok video (@ellisransonx), Ellis revealed what she packs in her Fiorelli handbag to get red carpet ready for the Pride of Britain Awards.
Ellis begins by sharing the number one item she says she “can’t live without,” her digicam, which she adds, “and I’ve only had it a week.” This is essential to capturing behind-the-scenes moments and vlogging her red carpet experience.
Another vital item? Her event ticket, which Ellis jokingly admits she almost left home without.
For touch-ups on the go, Ellis keeps her makeup essentials at hand, including a lip liner, powder, and lipstick to maintain her flawless look throughout the night.
One unexpected but crucial item? Mints, gifted by her makeup artist. Ellis laughs, “I don’t know if I should take it offensively,” but staying fresh is key, especially when mingling with celebrities, photographers, and the press.
Designer at Fiorelli Nia Davis adds, “For high-profile events, the right handbag ties everything together. It needs to complement your look while being practical enough to carry essentials without compromising on style. That’s why small grab bags with versatile compartments are ideal for red carpet moments. They allow you to stay organised, keep your key items like lipstick, ticket, and your phone within easy reach, and still look effortlessly chic and red carpet ready.”
You can find the Ramona Mini Grab Bag in Black for just £59, with more colours, including the blue, available soon.
