FASHION WEEK SURVIVAL GUIDE: PART TWO

As promised here's part two of our top models guide to surviving the fashion week month...we're not sure if the beautiful Charlotte Di Calypso has convinced us enough to swap lattes and carbs for fruit and the gym but its nice to know where we're going wrong anyway!

Part two: Charlotte Di Calypso
What is your trick to staying energetic and healthy during the fashion month?: Well, during the shows it's hard to follow a special regime. It's important to eat everyday of course because we have a really hard month and need energy! So first I try to have a good breakfast with fruits and yoghurts or eggs, something that gives you energy for the whole day. And then when I know that I'll have a busy day and no time to eat I always take with me some fruits (like apple and banana, something easy to eat) and some wholemeal bread. But I think finally, for me, the best thing to give me energy is my family. Always there to encourage me. Its so important.
During the fashion month, you’re running from one show to the next. What is your trick to keeping your skin clear with so many constant makeup changes?: As soon as a show is done, I'll take off all my makeup and put my really rich cream which I take with me all the time. 
What do you normally eat during the fashion month? Are there any good snack foods that you keep in your handbag during the shows?: Not really...As I said before I take some fruits and bread or cereal bars in my bag. Something easy and practical!
What are the top three beauty items you can’t live without during the fashion month?: My repair cream from Avene which is really good for dry skin. I also put on all of the time, on my lips a lipstick from Elizabeth Arden and a concealer from MAC when my skins getting irritated and a bit red.
What is the best piece of advice you’ve ever been given about surviving a month of fashion shows?: I think the best thing is to be yourself, and not stress.
How do you prepare for a month of fashion shows?: I try to sleep a lot before! And I go to the gym, where I do exercises to prepare my knees and ankles for all the shows ahead.
