Kristin Bauer van Straten Reveals “What’s In My Bag”

Kristin Bauer van Straten showed Us Weekly what was in her bag, because we all want to know, right? I mean, what is contained in a woman’s purse tells a lot about that woman. And all you men thought you could tell just by looking in our eyes. Pfft! You look inside our purses and our deepest, darkest secrets are revealed. Let’s take a look inside Kristin’s, shall we?

“My bag is like an all-preparedness kit,” Kristin Bauer jokes of her Steve Madden vegan purse. Among the essentials: thinkThin protein bars, a travel toothbrush and an iPhone with rubber bumper — “because I always drop it!” says the True Blood star (HBO, Sundays, 9 p.m.). What else does she stash?

To Be Fair

“I always put sunscreen of at least SPF 30 on the backs of my hands when I drive. I’m so fair, I freckle if I burn.”
What a Pill

“When I’m feeling weak, I take Wellness Formula vitamins. They really seem to work because I don’t get sick very often. It’s a trick I learned from an ex-boyfriend!”

Old School

“I keep a little comb with me — the same kind they used to give you before posing for sixth grade photos.”

Sweet Relief

“I always have zero-calorie stevia packets on hand. It’s an herb that’s sweet. I don’t feel good when I use artificial sweeteners.”

An Earful

“I found a great cardio class, but the music is almost unbearable. It’s loud and fast – it sounds like munchkins are singing. I carry earplugs with me so I can make it through!”

I don’t think she carries that adorable little puppy around in there though. I could be wrong. I used to carry my puppy in my pocket!

Thanks to Us Weekly for sending that over!
