The hardest working item in my wardrobe is … a black pair of ripped jeans. You can dress them up or down and they’re a good wardrobe staple. I am wearing my tan gladiator Valentino studded sandals to death at the moment too.

 

My most recent purchase was … a pink Saint Laurent T-shirt from David Jones.

 

Franklin starts the day by reading emails then heads straight to the gym.

And loves to spend time at the beach with hubby Buddy.

 

Three items every woman should own are … a good handbag, a hydrating night cream and some good-quality sheets.

 

I have more shoes than bags ... because I like to invest in a really good bag and find the right one. I always look for something different, I don’t buy the same style of handbag over and over again.

 

My make-up MVP is … a good red lipstick or highlighter. Both can immediately elevate a beauty look and make it appear instantly glamorous.

 

My ultimate skincare saviour is … Olay Total Effects moisturiser/BB cream. I don’t pack make-up when I am on holidays but this product is perfect if you feel like you want something a little bit more than just your moisturiser, with a hint of extra coverage without being too much.

Franklin’s signature scent.

I fix a bad hair day by … making it look really textured and beachy. I apply a heap of dry shampoo to the roots, then some nourishing hair oil to the ends.

 

My signature scent is … Tom Ford Jasmine Rouge or essential oils, which are mixed for me. I have a selection that I wear depending on my mood with scents like courage, breathe and sleep.

 

My morning routine is … I usually check my emails as soon as I wake up, get ready and head straight to the gym. If I don’t work out in the morning I don’t work out at all. I need to get it done straight away or my motivation fades throughout the day.

 

I order tea over coffee … I very rarely drink coffee. I love peppermint or green tea, I have a selection of relaxation and digestive teas I have at night before bed too.

 

She’s not much of a coffee drinker, but loves peppermint or green tea.

 

My favourite Sydney spot is … the beach. My husband and I have a couple of secret spots we like to head to which are nice and quiet.

 

I ’m a regular at ... Henley’s WholeFoods on Oxford St. They do a great breakfast, I love the alkaliser bowl, it’s super-filling and nourishing.

 

My party trick is ... dancing. I just love to dance. It isn’t really a party trick but I can dance
all night.

 

Being married is different because ... I didn’t think getting married would change much as we are already so close, however, it does feel different. It’s hard to put into words but you feel like an invincible little team all on your own. We have found a new strength in being husband and wife, it’s a really special feeling.

 

I’m currently binge watching … Stranger Things and The People v OJ Simpson. We also recently finished The Night Manager, which was really great. We need another series to get stuck into.

 

I’m Instagram stalking …
I’m obsessed with my girlfriend’s Instagram page ITSNOWCOOL. She captures and empowers women through her photography and promotes a strong, fit, happy girl. I love it and am so proud of her work.

 

I’m listening to … J. Cole’s new single. Albums on repeat are Life Of Pablo, Drake and Rihanna’s latest.

My favourite app is … a tabata app is currently one I use most days. Tabata is a way of timing a workout, 20 secs on, 10 secs off. I use it as a little finisher at the gym or when I am travelling.

 

 

My favourite Friday night in involves … ordering something healthy and watching a movie on the couch. We stay in 80 per cent of the time, so Friday nights are pretty low-key for us. If we head out we like to catch up with a group of our friends and go for a big dinner and I enjoy a glass of champagne or rose.

 

My five, real or fictional, dream dinner party guests … Richard Branson, Rhonda Rousey, Malala Yousafzai, Victoria Beckham and my mum because, as a business woman, I know she would just love to pick Richard Branson’s brain over dinner.
