So similar me and Elton with our sunglass collection.

I wonder how many he had.

Hi Vogue, I m Shay Mitchell, and this is what s in my bag.

So I actually got this bag from a vintage store.

I just saw it, I loved the size,

especially because I m always traveling

and I have what I think a lot of people would describe

as a Mary Poppins bag

and then I just got a fun little charm

from Chrome Hearts to accessorize it.

So, this is it, and it is very heavy.

First item, my cell phone.

Always, always, always.

If I leave it home, I will turn back around and get it.

I think also being a mom now, I always wanna be available.

So this is also my fun little case that I got,

my daughter really likes it.

It also has a little mirror here, so it s convenient

for when I m doing things, I can just check.

I have a huge water bottle with me.

I actually really enjoy traveling with my own water bottle

just because I feel like

it forces me to want to stay more hydrated

than drinking constantly

out of like different plastic water bottles.

I definitely go through two,

maybe three of these.

Okay, next up.

I have my BEIS mesh pouch.

This has random stuff in it.

So, I always have my HydraLyte, pour one of these in here.

I have mascara because if I was ever stuck on an island,

I would say I would need to have mascara with me.

Sky High mascara.

Lip gloss, of course.

Hand cream because when I m traveling,

I really don t enjoy the feeling of dry hands.

Mints and gum because bad breath is just not it.

And then I have tea, so I actually really enjoy this tea

or a dandelion tea when I m traveling.

It s one of the first things that I have

when I check into a hotel.

I feel like after traveling,

you just sometimes feel a little bloated,

and this helps with that, so always with me.

Silk hair ties.

Oh, and this, a little vitamin C packet.

Not the best tasting, just gonna say it right now,

but they work.

What else in here?

Candy, of course.

And, yeah, so I always just like these little bags,

I feel like it keeps things super organized

in a bag this size.

A hat, the joy of having kids is you get melasma sometimes,

and if I m out on the sun for too long,

I do too and it likes to come out.

The key to a good hat

I would say obviously it being adjustable,

depending on the hair, how it is.

I like that, but I would also say just the brim.

I m not like a crazy hat person...

Yeah, I am, I am a crazy hat person,

I have a lot of hats, I love hats.

Passport, I always have my passport.

Canadian and a little pen

because I don t really love touching the pens in airports.

Somewhere I haven t been that I m dying to go

is New Zealand.

I have a few friends that are from there

and I just feel like it looks so beautiful.

Yeah, that s probably next to my bucket list, New Zealand.

If I could travel with one person

aside from my family, who would it be?

Betty White, I don t know if she d be fun.

You know, if I could bring her back...

Oh wait, I can t bring her back.

No, wait, what was the question?

I ve answered a question like this

that was like dead or alive. Let s X that and redo it again.

But honestly, Betty White.

Next item, have a little agenda.

Another pen shoved in here.

I m on my phone quite a bit,

but when it comes to taking notes or making lists,

I like pen to paper.

I actually forgot my real one.

That s where I first drew up

our first products at BEIS, which was our weekender bag

and I drew it on an airplane.

Yeah, so that s in one of my older notebooks.

I also have an old journal where after a psychic reading,

I wrote down everything

that she had told me and it s really trippy to look at

because I would say almost all of it came true.

Then money, this is like my little change purse,

little key chain.

I don t love a big wallet so I feel like this is easy

cause it can just come with me.

Portable charger always.

Is this labeled, yeah, this is labeled too.

I think I have five of them so I know where they are.

I leave these everywhere, but I absolutely love them

because again, I wanna be available,

especially if anything s going on with my kids.

I need to have this with me at all times.

What else do I have in here?

Little bag of jewelry.

Today I m doing a few interviews

so I always like to have options.

Gold, silver, what are you wearing?

I always have a random little pouch of of jewelry in my bag.

More chargers, this is a little guy that depending like...

You know in Ubers or...

Like what do you want, what do you need, I got you.

Told you if you travel with somebody, you need it to be me

because I got you.

What kind of phone do you have, right here.

This is a spray serum face.

Traveling, I love a little face mist.

So if you see just like mist up in the air in front of you,

it s probably me just spraying myself on a plane.

I love to stay hydrated.

Candy, I also am like a little sugar head.

I don t know somebody that loves sugar.

I love candy so I have this for myself

and also as bribery for my children.

Works wonders and this is like an organic one.

What else do I have in here?

I have hot sauce, this is my little mini hot sauce bag.

This is a secret one I can t tell you about,

but this is also my little Tabasco size.

So I love this and it s my little spice container.

So for every time I sit down,

I literally have one of those with me in my bag, swag.

Okay, this is unique and kind of special.

Okay, so I always have this.

This is what really comes with me

and switches in different bags.

I have a lot of stuff in here.

As you can see, I have like cuticle oil, lip gloss,

tweezers, little hair gel, AirPods, hair ties, cream.

Ooh, this is good.

Little blister bandages.

A must have, these really work wonders.

Little mini toothbrushes, little stain on the go.

Eyebrow pencil, must have.

This and mascara I would say

are my like two must haves for makeup.

And then this little card in here,

this is my grandma and Atlas and this is a real photo

then got turned into a little painting.

She has this little message on the back

that was one that she left me.

So I love this, this is very special

and it comes with me everywhere.

I would read it but I would cry

so I don t want that to happen right now.

The best advice my grandma ever gave me was

she d just be like, just go out there.

Just do it, just go out there.

Like she literally would always say that.

And I think that really has been my mantra

ever since I started was like, why not?

Like I never want to regret anything that I didn t do.

Most special memory I have with my gram

was when she came with me on the red carpet

and it was for a movie that I did with Gary Marshall

and it was like my first big red carpet

and I brought her out with me

and those photos will always be my favorite,

but she loved it.

She I would say has always been my number one supporter.

This is also something that s I always have with me

in my travel bags.

It s a little card holder,

but the card that I have in here is little BEIS cards.

So I hand this out to anybody that I see at the airport

that s traveling with BEIS.

It says, we see you got to first BEIS,

let s get you to second BEIS, a little discount code.

So I love this, always have this.

Craziest place that I ve seen somebody with a BEIS piece was

I was shooting for Thirst in Argentina

and it was in this small ranch that was like two hours

out of Buenos Aires and it was just so remote.

I truly thought we were the only people that were there.

And I m shooting this segment, the camera s on

and all of a sudden this girl walks out of the washroom

that was kind of next to where we were shooting

and she has the BEIS fanny pack on

and I remember Kaylee was behind me was like,

oh my gosh, is that BEIS

and she s like, yeah, it s BEIS and I like turned.

I was like, was this set up, like did somebody set this up?

It wasn t set up.

Her and her mom both had it

and they claim to love the brand.

Next up, more snacks, I love these.

If you want healthy snacks, I feel like

I m kind of the queen of that

cause I do a lot of the research

and look at the ingredients

so any sort of like dummy snacks I have in my bag.

I always have a pair of sunglasses in my bag sometimes too.

I probably have more sunglasses than I do anything else,

like more than shoes, more than bags.

Wet wipes, always, everywhere.

Check into the hotel, wipe down all the things.

The phone, the remote,

or I use a shower cap for the remote control,

but I always am wiping down handles, my plane seat,

the headrest, the TV, all of it.

I go through a lot of these, selfie light.

You know if there s a tag on something that I have,

it means that there s more than one.

So this is light one.

So I have maybe a few more, but I like this.

Not that you don t have exceptional lighting here,

but like let s just blast it.

Up, see that, little lifted, head up,

little tilt to the face.

I m really almost done.

Okay, let s do this.

Kindle, I love this because when I m traveling,

especially when I m by myself,

I like to read as much as possible

so I have quite a few books in here.

The one I m currently reading is

The Witch of Portobello by Paulo Coelho.

And I ve read it before, I just like to reread it,

but I love this little size.

I have vitamins in here, a little pill case that I love.

More snacks, Rice Krispy, honey.

Especially when I m doing any sort of like press,

I always have honey with hot water

so I carry my own just in case.

I think that s it, a printed schedule.

So right now this has all my flights from like

I leave tonight for Barcelona and then I go to Michigan

and then I am in Scotland for four days this month

and then I come home for two days

and like it just has all of my check-ins and all of that.

So if my phone s ever dead, I have it here.

I know my confirmation numbers, I know all the things

so this is like my little Bible.

Then I have gum and more hand fan, so I think that s it.

This is the first time that I ve used this to travel.

As much as it s cute, definitely lacks a lot of functions.

Alright, thanks Vogue.

Thanks for checking out what s in my bag.

Well, 100 things.
