Yes, that is clearly the optimal solution. I was assuming you don’t own those two items, or that you don’t have a handbag the right size or don’t want to use it—more plausible for a man that for a woman, I guess.
Carrying around a handbag in the first place happens to be something that I find annoying and risky. I’m prone to leaving it in easy-to-notice, easy-to-steal places or outright forgetting it in some public location.
Now that I think about that, that happened to me exactly once (as far as I can remember) with a handbag, though it happens to me very often¹ with other items such as keys, jackets, sweatshirts and sometimes my iPod. (I usually² eventually manage to recover them, but not always.) I guess that’s because I’m more likely to immediately notice that I’m missing my bag than that I’m missing my keys.
I put a pocket umbrella and/or a foldable raincoat into my handbag. Duh.

Around once per month in average.
Around 90% of the times.
