Wrong to answer a question with a question I know, but what's with the hand bag thing? My wifes bike gear has pockets Houdini would never have thought of, yet we have to carry some lump of Haute Couture round.
The tip, if there is one, is as well as finding a bag that meets your needs for keeping your perfectly good pockets empty while walking round, also find something like a sandwich box that fits inside. When riding, the box (we use it to hold batteries and chargers) makes better use of the volume and keeps the bag in shape. There is then only the minor hassle of getting the lippy, money, hair straightners, collection of interestingly shaped lead weights etc. out of the pockets and into the bag when we arrive somewhere.
