1
Hey Vogue, I'm Dua Lipa and this is What's in My Bag.
2
Good to go?
3
Okay.
4
Car keys, very important.
5
Especially when I'm home, I love to drive everywhere.
6
I have my diary, which the outside is all really cute, but the inside is just like a notebook that's like falling apart and lots of Polaroids.
7
From Tor, my choreographer's assistant.
8
This is me and my band as we were doing Tiny Desk.
9
I feel like I'm on tour all the time, but I love it.
10
I have so much fun performing, and I feel like a lot of the stuff that's in my bag, I just collect throughout my travels.
11
Like I have, oh, it's like a little good luck duck.
12
Iron-on patches, Don's Depot in Austin.
13
Stickers, you're on the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
14
Matches, hot sauce, very important.
15
Always carry hot sauce with me because I feel like it makes every meal better.
16
I have books.
17
I carry like two in my handbag, and then I have more in the suitcase, especially if I'm gone for a long period of time.
18
This one is Hernan Diaz, In the Distance.
19
This was actually a gift from Hernan.
20
He came to see my show, and then I guess this just came out in a hard pack, so he gave me this one, which I'm really looking forward to reading.
21
Selva Almada, Not a River.
22
This has been in my reading pal for a little while, and I'm really looking forward to getting into this.
23
It's a Latin American author, an Argentinian author, actually.
24
This publisher, Charco Press, they translate a lot of Latin American authors,
25
contemporary Latin American authors, and I'm always really interested in what they've got.
26
And this is one that I'm looking forward to reading.
27
I get a lot of recommendations.
28
My friends send me books.
29
I do the book club, one, because I just love reading books.
30
Like I wanted to share the experience with lots of people.
31
I started my company called Service 95,
32
which I thought of as like an online cultural concierge where we have lots of different stories from around the world.
33
There's no kind of method to the book club.
34
It's just books that I've read that I love
35
that I choose for the month and we just see if the authors want to join us for a conversation.
36
What else?
37
I've got my laptop which has some stickers on it.
38
My Spanish book.
39
When I'm away I like to learn languages.
40
I I have a teacher who I speak to on Zoom.
41
And so my laptop and my GCSE higher Spanish is with me.
42
Notebooks for French and Spanish.
43
I think I'm gonna stick to French and Spanish and try and get good at those first.
44
And then if I can do it, then maybe Italian as well.
45
But I speak Albanian fluently.
46
Okay, some life essentials for when I'm traveling, which are really important.
47
My eye mask, band-aids, throat pastels.
48
Oh, electrolytes.
49
I love these ones.
50
I take them every day.
51
Oh, these $2.
52
Actually, these are like good luck.
53
There's a guy called $2 Steve that comes to every good show.
54
And he's like in the backstage and he just gives out these $2.
55
And actually, I'm supposed to pass it on, so you should have one.
56
There you go.
57
Under eye patches, Augusta Nesbada.
58
I can't live without them.
59
This is super important, especially with all my travels.
60
When I'm on a plane, I pop these on and I'm like, okay, maybe I'll wake up looking a little bit more refreshed.
61
I've got Manuka Honey Drops, just throat stuff.
62
That'll make me feel good on a flight.
63
My face cream, headphones, multiple headphones.
64
I have so many headphones because I probably, I pick one pair up and I put them in my bag
65
and then I take another pair and I put them in my bag.
66
And then it's quite handy actually, because when I need to make phone calls, they're quite tangled.
67
But if one's tangled, then I have another pair that's less tangled.
68
It's handy to me.
69
I like wide headphones because I don't have to charge them.
70
It's just one less thing to charge.
71
I feel like there's just cables everywhere and there's cables everywhere, but in a different way.
72
My wallet, nothing to say about that.
73
Sunglasses, sunglasses.
74
I think this is probably like the headphone situation.
75
It's like take one pair off and then leave the house
76
and then put another pair on and I forget so I accumulate.
77
This is actually probably the least amount of sunglasses I've had at one time in my bag, but they're different, different for different outfits.
78
And also if my mood changes throughout the day and I go, actually, I wanna like spice it up with a different sunny, I've got that.
79
My passport, always with me, because you never know.
80
Oh, favorite place I've been recently, Austin, Texas.
81

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
