6:30AM I’ve gotten used to being an early bird. I like getting up early and feeling really productive before lunch. The fi rst thing I do is check my phone. Instagram is my favourite app. I don’t post too often, but sometimes I’ll go through my albums and fi nd some really good throwbacks. 7:00AM I prefer to work out in the morning. To stay toned, I do a lot of ab work with my trainer, Gunnar Peterson, and I’ll take a kickboxing class occasionally. 8:00AM Where I head first varies from day to day, depending on if I’m on set or working on our new contemporary line, Kendall + Kylie. I like driving, but usually I’ll take a car. I always have to be DJ in the car. I’m obsessed with making playlists. When you make a playlist, you have to know the crowd and fi t the right vibe, as well as throw in a few classics and newer stuff that nobody’s heard. I listen to Kanye [West], Drake, and Justin [Bieber] a lot, but I don’t have a favourite genre of music. If it’s a good song, it’s good. 9:00AM We start our day meeting with our Kendall + Kylie team in the offi ce. The collection is extra special because it represents how Kylie and I dress today. We’ll review fabrics, have fittings with models, and meet photographers to collaborate with on our upcoming lookbook shoots. 12:00PM Most of the time, lunch is really quick. I typically eat lean chicken and brown rice, and am always snacking on raw veggies with dip and hummus. I wish I had more time to do grocery shopping because I like picking out my own vegetables. 2:00PM On a typical day, I can have four or fi ve meetings and appointments back-to-back. Right now, we’re developing “our girl” [for the collection]. Kylie and I are a really good creative team. She’s not afraid to speak her mind, and she has really good ideas. My favourite pieces in the collection are the jumpsuits because they’re really huge for spring and we did the sets in matching fabrics. 4:00PM There’s no set end time for when I’m off the clock. Some days I’ll be on set until night; others, I’ll leave the off ce for an interview, then head to an event, or have to travel. It’s a very fast-paced schedule. To relax, a massage is always nice, but I’ll mostly catch up on sleep or lounge at home with my sisters. I’m also obsessed with frozen yogurt. I could eat it every day, but I aim for twice a week to treat myself. I usually get the classic Tart fl avour from Go Greek. 6:00PM If I’m lucky, dinner is a normal time, like 6pm. In LA, I love Nobu for sushi, or Craig’s, where I order the vegan spaghetti Bolognese or Margherita pizza. I always make sure to have one or two nights a week out with friends, where I’ll get dressed up for dinner and be social. I think part of staying inspired and happy really comes from surrounding yourself with the right energy. Thankfully I have friends who lift me up and help push me. We’re all going through these changes in our careers together. 11:00PM I have to sleep at least seven to eight hours to be fully awake for the next day, so I try to get to bed as soon as I can. I’ve trained myself to fall asleep anywhere possible, in the car or on a flight.

7:00AM I like to bounce and hang out. The first thing I do is check my phone and Instagram. I look at my friends’ accounts-I think they all honestly have good pictures. 7:15AM I like to look cute if I’m heading to work on the collection because it inspires me. I love doing my own makeup. I like Charlotte Tilbury Light Wonder Foundation and Giorgio Armani Face Fabric Makeup, because it’s super-thin. I always use NARS concealer and Laura Mercier translucent powder. I like Charlotte Tilbury bronzer and blush, and Anastasia Beverly Hills eyebrow pencil. Then, my Kylie Lip Kit is the only thing I wear on my lips. 7:30AM It takes me only 10 minutes to get everything done. I can get ready really fast. I’m always the fi rst one ready out of all of my friends. For a no-brainer outfi t, I’ll put on a plain long-sleeved bodysuit, which I have in a bunch of diff erent colours, and jeans. I’m more into sneakers than heels right now-I have, maybe, 50 pairs. The most comfortable are by APL. 8:00AM I’ve never been a breakfast person. If I do eat breakfast, it’s at home, and it’s not healthy at all. I just don’t like granola or cereal or anything like that, so I’ll do hash browns or bacon or banana pancakes. 10:00AM When we get to the studio to work on the collection, what we do fi rst depends on how far along we are. If we’re working on fi ttings, we’ll have all the clothes ready and have models to try them on so we can make sure that everything looks exactly as we want it to. We’re always seen on the red carpet all glammed up, but people don’t really get to see our casual styles, so we wanted to do a line that refl ects what we wear on a day-to-day basis. We’ve been working on this collection for a long time, and I’m so excited that it’s fi nally coming out. 12:00PM We have lunch in the offi ce because it’s hard to go out. We always have paparazzi following us, especially when it’s Kendall and me together. We love Joan’s on Third. We both order the Chinese chicken salad. 2:30PM In the afternoon, we go off and do our own things, and I’ll see my friends. We like to go outside and explore the world and just be kids. Yesterday we were outside all day walking around my mum’s neighbourhood, and then we hung out with her all night. I love hanging out with my family. I’m living on my own now, I feel more independent, but we all have such a close bond. 4:00PM I’ve been getting back into working out. I stopped for Christmas and New Year’s, so I have to get back into it. I work out with [my sister] Kourtney and her trainer, who is Kanye’s trainer. We work out for an hour. It’s hard, but it makes me feel good. Kourtney likes to blast music. I’m really into Kanye’s new songs. PartyNextDoor has a song called “Party 8,” which my friends and I have been listening to on repeat. 6:00PM I love cooking these days. I like to make burgers. I also make spaghetti because my mum is obsessed with spaghetti. It’s the fi rst thing I learnt to cook. I love potatoes; I’ll make all diff erent kinds of potatoes, like scalloped potatoes, mashed potatoes, candied yams... 8:00PM Most of the time I prefer a night in with my friends. We typically watch movies and just hang out. love Mean Girls. It was a big part of my childhood, and I watched it a lot when I was younger, so I think that’s why I love it. 12:00AM I’ve been going to bed around midnight lately. Before bed, I use Neutrogena wipes to take off my makeup. I also use coconut oil on my hair and body. You just rub it on your hands, so it melts; then, rub it all over your body, or wherever you want. I think it was Jaden [Smith] who told me about it.
