What I Packed for L.A.

What I Packed for L.A.

Here's what was in my suitcase when I went to LA recently - it took me bloody ages to get everything neatly aligned for this picture! This little feature was for www.iampacked.com which is the blog for Air New Zealand. I flew out in Business and back in Premium...

My Best Travel Tip EVER. Perhaps.

My Best Travel Tip EVER. Perhaps.

(Please excuse the rather odd photo. You'd be surprised at how hard it is to take a photo of your chest area with no help; especially with a flash. Especially wearing a crop-top. Everything goes very...see-through.) This is, ladies and inevitable gentlemen who have...

Omorovicza Essentials Kit

Omorovicza Essentials Kit

I know I only mentioned this Omorovicza kit yesterday, but I am utterly obsessed, so here it is in a little more detail. I'm so, so pleased that I discovered this kit from Omorovicza. I took it to L.A. with me and, without sounding like a twerp, it made a vast...

Model Skincare Routine: The Night Flight

Model Skincare Routine: The Night Flight

Perhaps this one is a little obvious; but you'd be surprised how many people don't cleanse and then moisturise when they fly long-haul. It's probably more important to do a proper cleanse when flying than at any other time, because you need to moisturise well and you...

Estée Lauder Limited Edition Palette

Estée Lauder Limited Edition Palette

Before you go getting all over-excited, this palette is a Travel Retail edition which means that you can only get it at the airport! I'm posting it up because I know that lots of you travel quite frequently - and there's nothing like killing time in the Duty Free...

YSL ‘Top Secrets’ Beauty Sleep

YSL ‘Top Secrets’ Beauty Sleep

Something both fun and luxurious for the dressing table; Yves Saint Laurent's Top Secrets Beauty Sleep. It's a two-in-one rescue cream for parched, crone-like skin. (I'm just being honest. We all have those nights, surely?!) The YSL Top Secrets products have been...

Paris: What I Packed, Where I Stayed

Paris: What I Packed, Where I Stayed

 A very quick post today as I've spent all of my time messing about with "behind-the-scenes" jobs that needed urgent attention. Once the general structure of the site is back to normal, posts will get a lot more wordy! This is a video that I put together a few weeks...

I “Heart” Sleeping

I “Heart” Sleeping

I could literally sleep for England. I bloody love sleeping. More than eating? Possibly, but don’t ask me to choose. I have to have at least eight hours of sleep a day, and if I don’t get it at the allotted time (at night) then I make up for it with numerous...

Jurlique Moisturising Hand Sanitiser

Jurlique Moisturising Hand Sanitiser

Having  a new kitten means that I am diddling about with gross things more often. Litter tray, poop scoop, smelly cat food. (Nobody tells you just how stinky cat food is, do they?) Obviously I wash my hands after I did any of the aforementioned gross things, but I...

Antler Teklite Carry-On

Antler Teklite Carry-On

The phrase "carry-on suitcase" makes me laugh because I always think of the Carry On film series - what a boring film Carry On the Suitcase would make! "Ooooh er missus! Would you like a hand with your zips? Can I help you stuff your bag?" Sorry. Over-active...

Video Scrapbook: Marrakech Fashion Shoot

Video Scrapbook: Marrakech Fashion Shoot

I had a load of random video clips from my trip to Morocco last week, so I sat there for ages and thought, how can I possibly make something publishable from this old pile of crud? This is the result! Haha, I jest, somewhat, it's not really a pile of crud, but when I...

Avoiding Early Morning Flights

Avoiding Early Morning Flights

 Why, why, why do we all feel the need to book flights at the most ridiculous times in the morning? Quite often I find myself getting up at 5am, 4am (even 3am!) to catch a flight. It's inhumane, I tell you! Most of these times it's because I'm flying to do a shoot and...
