"I find it annoying when you have a bag that, however cool it makes you feel, if it doesn't work, it drives you mad.

A beautiful bag gives me pleasure every time I use it. It makes me feel lovely. They always say that an actor can't quite get into a role until they put on the shoes of their character, and I think that as a woman, a handbag really alters my mood. We play rather a lot of roles with our handbags."
