Karlie's World

Favorite Fitness Hack

"I focus on isolated exercises that I can do anywhere—they really tone small muscles but make a difference in sculpting arms, legs, butt or thighs. I love resistance bands—they pack easily so they're great on the go."

Favorite Beauty Hacks

"When I'm jet-lagged or haven't been getting much beauty sleep, I use Klorane eye patches. I also love a face oil because my skin gets really dry from traveling—I rub the excess on my hands and cuticles."

Favorite Time-Saving Hacks

"I’m always in a hurry, so I multi-task by brushing my teeth in the shower. I also like to make a smoothie to drink on my way to work. I throw everything in—protein powder, almond milk, coffee, banana."

Favorite Style Hack

"I'm a big fan of the comfortable-chic trend, especially sneakers. Having key pieces in your wardrobe that are practical and cool is important. If I only have 10 minutes before running out the door, I just throw on my sneakers and trench coat over a few basics."
