Y
ou name it, Dascha
Polanco has it —
even sesame
seeds. “I swear it’s
not from breadsticks,”
jokes the Orange Is the
New Black star, 36.
(The final season of the
Netf lix hit is available to
stream on July 26.) The
seeds, said to bring good
fortune, are a talisman
— and not the only one
she carries. Us gets lucky
and peeks inside Polan-
co’s tote.
CAUGHT RED-HANDED
“A Russian lady told me
once that [red is] good
luck and brings more
money. So I have a red
Fendi wallet and another
one from Louis Vuitton.”
SOLE MATES
“I have three pairs of
disposable f lats. If I’m
going out at night, I bring
the silver or gold ones; if
it’s during the day, I’ll just
wear the black ones.”
AN OPEN BOOK
“I’ve been carrying
Dominicana by Angie
Cruz [out Sept. 3]. I’m
the type who has to read
when I’m on the go.”
NATURAL INCLINATION
“Since I started using
natural deodorant I’ve
tried a couple [brands],
but PiperWai is the
one. I really like it.”
SET IN MOTION
“Dramamine is a
must, because I get
carsick — even when
I’m not in a car.”
ON THE MARKET
“I love Bed, Bath
& Beyond, so I have
their discount card.
Every time I go there,
I need every gadget in
the store.”
Dascha Polanco stuffs
everything but the kitchen
sink into her Madewell tote
