British-born photographer Amanda de Cadenet is more than just another pretty blonde face—she’s a true girl’s girl and real champion for womankind…in other words, the kind of girl we all want to be friends with.  As her new late night talk show, Undone with @AmandadeCadenet, is about to air, she chats with us about the contents of her carry-on bag, the podcasts she listens to on the plane, and the one item she never leaves home without.

What brand of carry-on bag do you travel with?

The Cabas Chyc leather tote by Saint Laurent, in red.

What items do you pack in your carry-on bag?

My laptop, my mini makeup bag, a Contax T2 camera (which is a film camera), vitamins, an Hermes cashmere blanket, Bose earbuds, and a book.

What’s the one item you never leave home without?

Le Volume de Chanel Mascara in the color noir-10.

Aisle or window?

Always a window seat, so I can sleep propped up against it.

Preferred in-flight beverage?

Water and lemon juice all the way!

How do you entertain yourself at 35,000 feet in the air?

Books!  I’m currently reading Within: A Spiritual Awakening to Love & Weight Loss by Dr. Habib Sadeghi.  I also really like to listen to podcasts…On Being with Krista Tippett is fantastic.

Favorite destinations to travel to?

New York City and Harbour Island, in the Bahamas.
