Want to know how your favourite celebs spend their days? Yep, us too. In Mamamia’s A Day in the Life series , fascinating people share everything from what they eat for breakfast to their pre-bedtime rituals.
This week, we find out what life is like for fashion influencer and mum of two Rozalia Russian.
There are only so many hours in a day and Rozalia Russian wants to squeeze every minute out of them.
The fashion influencer and tastemaker lives in Melbourne with her entrepreneur husband Nick and their two children, Willow, eight, and Kingston, five. With a social media following of over 250,000 people, Rozalia's weeks are "very structured".
"Mondays are always emails, admin and just overall planning days," the mum-of-two tellsMamamia.
"Tuesdays are meeting days with my management group and any clients, Wednesdays and Thursdays are my photoshoot days - either on set or shooting something for my social media - and then Friday is [for] if I'm working on a new collection or a new range."
Rozalia's day begins between 6 and 6.30am to the sound of her two cats. She'll then feed them, make herself a cup of coffee and jump back into bed.
"That's when I have about 20 minutes of just me time," she said.
"I'll have my coffee, check my emails and my diary to see what I've got going on for the day."
After that, she'll pop on her exercise gear, and by 7.30am her kids are awake.
"Then it's go, go, go," she told us.
"It's getting them dressed for school, making their breakfast, making all the beds and getting them out the door by 8.15am (Nick drops them to school), so I can make it to the gym by 8.30am."
Almost every morning, Rozalia likes to get some form of exercise in. She'll go to the gym four times a week and Pilates once or twice.
"Around 11 o'clock, I'll have my first meal," she said. "It's usually yoghurt or muesli or maybe some toast with avocado."
Having created her own collections with brands Billini, Atoir and most recently, Runaway The Label, and worked with luxury designers including Louis Vuitton and Fendi, Rozalia is known for her sophisticated cool-girl aesthetic.
While she used to employ her close friend, fashion stylist Elliot Garnaut to style her, the pair have taken it one step further these days.
"The relationship is so deep now where it's more like a brother and sister relationship [and] he always shops for me," Rozalia said.
"He'll send me links of things to buy and I buy [them]. It's almost like he's curated my whole wardrobe which makes my life a lot easier."
"Then on very, very special occasions, he will help me out," she added.
Rozalia's everyday outfit is "very staple", she tells us: "It's a great black blazer, black pants, singlet or shirt."
On shoot days, Rozalia will go through the brief and see what the client wants, including where and how they want the photo taken.
