What's in Gracie's Handbag?

gracie.jpgSo what would you expect to find in the handbag of a beauty editor? Obviously I thought I’d find a small cosmetics store but at first glance I thought I’d be proven wrong. It wasn’t until I unzipped a small bag inside BeautyBible.co.nz editor Gracie's handbag that all was revealed. I was right about the cosmetics but curious to see what else I might find…

 

 

Do you prefer a big or small handbag?
The bigger the better I say. Though considering I am a mere 5ft’1 I’m often mocked at how ridiculous I look carrying around a bag that I could literally fit into. Sometimes I like to pretend I’m Ashley Olsen, and if she can get away with a ridiculously oversized handbag, then so can I.

What is your favourite style of bag?
To be honest, I really don’t have one.  As long as it’s big, black and leather I’m happy.

What is your favourite label/ designer?
It’s definitely Alexander Wang. He is a genius when it comes to handbags.
I am still seriously lusting over his black Coco Duffel bag from the Fall 2009 RTW collection. Needless to say at a whopping $895 it was slightly over my budget.

What do you carry that you don’t really need?
Well today that would be the new Jay-Z book, Decoded, which is basically an intimate, first-person chronicle of his life and work. I am a huge Jay-Z fan so this book is like gold to me, and the cover, which features Andy Warhol’s Rorschach, is just so gosh darn pretty I can’t stop looking at it. This book is going to make the perfect addition to my coffee table collection.

What can’t you leave home without?
My Blackberry, because it has my entire life sorted and stored inside it, I would be a lost puppy without it. My sunglasses, simply because they have become a permanent fixture on my face – I honestly can’t go outside without them on now, and that’s regardless of the weather.  My Sans New Generation Ceuticals Lip Aid, simply put, the best lip balm ever.  Not only does it contain carrot seed oil to smooth and boost hydration, but it also contains Papaine proteolytic enzymes which actually exfoliate your lips. And lets be honest, who doesn’t love a good multitasking product?

What is the most embarrassing thing that has ever fallen out of your bag or what is the most embarrassing thing currently in your bag?
The most embarrassing thing that has ever fallen/been taken from my bag would definitely have to be my bra. Now I know what you might be thinking, but trust me, it’s nothing like that, I promise. I had actually been at the beach all day so was obviously wearing my bikini, but being the super prepared girl that I am, I took some underwear in my bag so that I could get changed after as I was off to a BBQ. Anyway, long story short, got to the BBQ and just ended up staying in
my bikini. Then the next thing I know, my friend’s dog is running around the backyard with my bra hanging from his mouth.
