Question 1

What bag is Christine Tay using in this video?

Accepted Answer

I’m using a vintage Gucci Jackie hobo in the large size. It’s my favourite Jackie style because of the little bullet closure, and I honestly love how it looks when it’s filled to the brim. It also comes with a longer strap, but I usually wear it as a shoulder bag.

Question 2

Is this Christine Tay’s everyday what’s in my bag?

Accepted Answer

Not really—this is what I pack when I’m going away for about 3–4 days. I change out my bags pretty often depending on my outfit, but this one has been my current most-used because it fits everything. For this video, I packed it for a weekend trip to Penang with my family.

Question 3

What journal does Christine Tay carry and how does she use it?

Accepted Answer

I carry a genuine suede leather journal cover that was listed as a defect piece, so I got it for about half price. I don’t mind the little marks because it feels natural for real leather. Inside, I use one insert as a planner/to-do list and another for brainstorming video ideas and quarterly plans.

Question 4

Why does Christine Tay prefer wired headphones now?

Accepted Answer

I’ve been gravitating toward wired headphones because it’s just easier—no charging, you just plug it into your phone and go. I still use my AirPods at the gym, but if they die on me, I don’t think I’d repurchase. For day-to-day, the wired ones are more than enough for me.

Question 5

What cameras does Christine Tay pack for travel?

Accepted Answer

I packed a 35mm film camera to capture memories in Penang, and I’m excited because I realized it’s refillable (I thought it was disposable). I also bring my Canon IXUS 105 in a super cushiony camera pouch. The IXUS was from my sister and it’s over a decade old but still looks brand new.

Question 6

What lip products does Christine Tay always bring?

Accepted Answer

My makeup pouch is basically all lip products because I like having options when I’m away for days. I keep using the same favourites—if I like something, I’ll use it until it’s gone. My staples include Rom&nd Juicy Lasting Tint (I’ve gone through three), plus a couple Kosas and a Lancôme lippie that are very “same same but different.”

Question 7

What does Christine Tay use to touch up makeup during the day?

Accepted Answer

I bring the Hourglass mini pressed powder with the tiny puff. It’s perfect for touching up when I get a bit greasy, especially around my T-zone. It’s small enough to live in my bag without taking up space.

Question 8

What does Christine Tay use instead of sugary drinks?

Accepted Answer

I carry kombucha powder because I’m trying to cut out sugary drinks (my chagee obsession was getting bad—2 to 3 times a week). It’s a nice alternative when I crave something fizzy and sweet. I also bring probiotics in powder form because it’s easy to eat and tastes really good.
