Dagne Dover has mastered handbags of all sorts, including the work bag Insider Picks editor Ellen Hoffman carries every day, the weekend bag perfect for short trips, and the smart, work-appropriate backpack. Dagne Dover was founded and now led by CEO Melissa Mash (above, middle), COO Deepa Gandhi, and creative director Jessy Dover, who are among the many inspiring female founders in the retail world today.
Naturally, we wondered what the CEO of the company that is holding its own against big designer handbag names carries in her own bag.
These are the everyday essentials Mash totes as she leads Dagne Dover.
A good dry shampoo

A good dry shampoo that's effective, not greasy (and that smells good) is hard to find.
Living Proof Perfect Hair Day Dry Shampoo Mini, $12, available at Sephora
Sunscreen

This is the smoothest, non-sticky sunscreen I've found. It feels like regular lotion. The mousse version is awesome for easy application, but this size is great for reapplying on the go.
Supergoop! Skin Soothing Mineral Sunscreen (SPF 40), $28, available at Amazon
A key cable

Not having a charger when you really need it is the worst! I like to make sure I have my tech tools while on the go. This key cable by Native Union helps me streamline my tech instead of having a bunch of loose cords floating around in my bag.
