Ready, Jet, Go! Rosie Huntingon-Whiteley’s Getaway Guide

Rosie

Traveling in style is always a challenge, but glamorous globetrotter and model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is giving you an inside look at her effortlessly chic lifestyle and how to land in luxury. In her column for The Violet Files, Rosie reveals her travel itinerary, packing picks, and favorite, flawless looks. First stop: Heathrow.

IN-FLIGHT ESSENTIALS

  • In my carry on:Cashmere wrap and lounge pants from my Rosie for Autograph line, a soft white t-shirt from Paige Denim, and cashmere socks borrowed from my man. I bring my own food and snacks so I can avoid the plane food—usually I’ll pack a paleo wrap with turkey or chicken and salad, as well as nuts and dried fruit.
  • Reading material:Dr. Nigma Talib’s book Younger Skin Starts in the Gut.
  • Entertainment plan:Lately I’ve been catching up on reading or favorite TV shows—this time it was The People v. O.J. Simpson.
  • First order of business:Ask for the biggest bottle of water they can provide and try to drink at least 3-4 liters. I also change straight into comfortable clothes, folding and hanging my airport outfit to avoid any creases before landing.

TSA-APPROVED BEAUTY (all available at VIOLET GREY and approved by the Violet Code)

PACKING LIST

  • Suitcase:I constantly have to replace my luggage as it gets so battered with all the traveling I do. The best brand I’ve found is Tumi. I use their Aden Expandable Fortnight Trip—they’re the most durable bags I’ve found. I never check less than two bags. I’m the best/worst packer!
  • Never-leave-home-without essentials:My iPhone, passport, reading material, change of currency and converter plugs.
  • Packed in multiples:Heels, Saint Laurent coats, Paige jeans, Rosie for Autograph lingerie, t-shirts.
  • Destination essential:Light jackets, a Burberry trench, Gianvito Rossi heels and Chloé sweaters. In London I’ll likely need them, no matter what time of year.

Michael Bay Confirms Rosie Huntington-Whiteley for ‘Transformers 3’

Michael Bay has officially replaced Megan Fox in ‘Transformers 3.’ He’s chosen Victoria’s Secret model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley to play Shia Labeouf’s love interest in the film. Michael Bay loves to give himself credit for “discovering talent,” and I am sure this will be no exception. By “discovering talent,” I mean taking the hottest chick on the planet, putting her in his film in a very skimpy outfit, and giving her zero lines. Good job Bay. You sure know how to pick them.
