Nicky Hilton’s Holiday Rules

Nicky Hilton- she’s beauty, she’s elegance and the epitome of city chic. Here are her tips and tricks to travelling in style.

WHAT DO YOU LOVE MOST ABOUT NEW YORK?

The energy!

FAVOURITE HOTEL?

The Crosby Street Hotel.

TOP SPA AND BEST TREATMENT?

The Red-Carpet Facial at Tracie Martyn.

FAVOURITE RESTAURANTS?

Rubirosa, for pizza. Mr. Chow’s, for Chinese. There is actually a great Australian diner I love, Ruby’s, which is in the neighbourhood. Carbone is also amazing.

WHERE DO YOU LOVE TO SHOP?

Bergdorf Goodman.

WHAT IS YOUR CITY STYLE?

Skinny jeans, ballet flats, button-down shirt, and a leather jacket.

HOW DO YOU STAY IN SHAPE IN THE CITY?

Running around all day! That is my cardio.

PACKING ESSENTIALS FOR NYC?

Definitely a pair of comfortable shoes — ballet flats, for me. A motorcycle leather jacket. A pair of Aquazzura heels, a pretty dress and a camera.

YOUR PACKING ADVICE?

Always leave room for shopping.

SKINCARE TIPS WHEN TRAVELING?

I do not like to wear any makeup on the plane. I just lather myself in moisturizers and eye creams to really hydrate while I’m up there. And lots of water!

WHAT IS YOUR AIRPORT STYLE?

Comfort. Nothing glamorous. Usually yoga pants, a hoodie, and a tennis shoe.

DO YOU HAVE ANY BEAUTY TIPS FOR FLYING?

Definitely hydrate. But I also always bring my own blanket on a plane, and an eye mask. I like to rest when I’m on the plane. It’s very rare time when I’m unreachable so I like to catch up on some sleep.

WHERE IS NEXT ON YOUR TRAVEL BUCKET LIST?

I would love to go back to Tokyo. I used to go a few times for work, and it’s such a cool city. I feel like there is still so much more to see there.
