I learned from my early years as a Real Estate agent that it is ALWAYS better to be overprepared than underprepared when it comes to the essentials you may need and what sticky situations you might find yourself in without them.

Check out the top 20 essentials #StellaApproved.

Spare tire/carjack/lug wrench If you haven’t had a flat tire in your life then you are very lucky but for most of us, especially on city roads, this is a more current occurrence than we would like. If your tire blows then you need to be prepared, sure you may be able to drive to the local tire man but the longer you drive on a flat the less chance there is they can just repair it and it might be the difference between you having to buy a whole new tire or not. The other not so ideal situation is that it’s nighttime and there isn’t a repairer open so learn how to change your own tire just in case you ever run into trouble. Most cars will have a car jack and lug wrench already placed in the boot under the carpet so make sure you check before you go out and buy them. While you’re there check your spare tire is pumped up and in good condition in case of a tire emergency. Don’t forget Stella also offers roadside assistance, read more about it on our homepage.

Money, honey. Don’t go leaving your life savings in your car or any change in your cupholders where it’s visible to any would-be thief’s. Just leave a little coin purse in your glove box in case you need it for a parking station, a window cleaner guy at the lights or if your wallet gets misplaced or stolen.

An umbrella

It’s sometimes 3 seasons in one day so it’s best you come prepared for rain, hail or shine! Pack an umbrella in the boot to ensure you stay dry.

Change of clothes Ok well, maybe just a jumper or denim jacket, something versatile you can throw on if the weather changes or you are out later than expected.

Flats to wear while driving A lot of us wear heels to work but it’s super unsafe to drive a car in them so keep a cute little pair of ballet flats under your car seat that you can drive in. They are also great if you take a detour after work to friends and don’t want to teeter in heels while hanging out.

Perfume and deodorant Keep a roll-on handy to keep yourself feeling fresh all day and a spray of perfume in between meetings or after work before your day is a must! Please note: Do not use an aerosol to store in the car, it gets SUPER hot in there and an aerosol could blow the whole car up. Roll on in life.

Sun protection They don’t have to be your favourites but keep a spare set of sunglasses in the car for those days that are glary and evenings when the sun is shining on your face. In the warmer months, it’s also a great idea to keep some sunblock in the car for any adventures or beach days you might find yourself on.
