"  6:15 A.M. I wake up between 6:15 and 6:30. Because I have, you know, four kids, I&amp;#039;m quite an early riser! So I naturally wake up at that time, but I always have an alarm as a safety net\u2014in case I have something really important going on and I sleep in for the first time in 20 years. (I don&amp;#039;t make Victoria Beckham nighties, so I&amp;#039;ll leave it to everybody&amp;#039;s imagination what I sleep in.) Then I get in the shower, and because I wake the children up at 7 o&amp;#039;clock, that gives me half an hour to get myself ready. So that half an hour in the morning while I&amp;#039;m getting ready, between showering and washing my face, I&amp;#039;m checking e-mails that have come in overnight, from America. Yes, there is an iPhone sitting there in the bathroom! In the bathroom, I always use Dr. Lancer skin products. He&amp;#039;s a dermatologist I saw when we were living in Los Angeles. The body cream I use is a really simple, inexpensive body moisturizer by Weleda. It&amp;#039;s really, really thick, and I slather it on. I also really like those Stila lip glosses, the ones that you twist and they click. They smell and taste nice. And then, throughout the day, I use Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream. I&amp;#039;d love to have a bath first thing in the morning, but I just don&amp;#039;t have the time. I do love to have a bath in the evening, but I&amp;#039;m not one to sit there and soak. (Tom Ford has three baths a day? How brilliant\u2014but he doesn&amp;#039;t have four kids!) I usually eat fruit for breakfast. I&amp;#039;ll have peppermint tea and then a double espresso. And I&amp;#039;m just nibbling while giving the kids all their breakfasts. And while that&amp;#039;s all happening, they&amp;#039;ll have a spelling test or a times table test. We have times tables on Post-its all over the fridge. So we&amp;#039;re quizzing each other in the morning, and we make it into, like, a little bit of a game. Yes, at age 38, I&amp;#039;m still doing homework! As far as exercise, my plan when I get back from New York Fashion Week is to get back to running because I&amp;#039;ve just been so busy trying to get the collections together. 7:50 A.M. We leave the house. The boys go to three different schools. I do one or two of the drops because they all start around the same time. David does the other, so we go in totally different directions. 8:50 A.M. I head in to work. My studio is in Battersea. The first thing I do is check in with my team. I have about 80 people in the studio, including seamstresses, an e-commerce team, everyone. Another thing I do as soon as I get in is check all aspects of my fall collection show in New York\u2014floor samples, set designs, music, floor plans. I&amp;#039;m hands-on, you could say! From the minute I get to work, it&amp;#039;s pretty nonstop. I have to be. I&amp;#039;ve got to be super focused. We are incredibly busy at the moment with my e-commerce launch. I&amp;#039;ve actually shot some of the video on it myself. I think it&amp;#039;s pretty modern, very innovative; it will have the Victoria line, the handbags, the denim, the eyewear, and, of course, the dresses! I&amp;#039;ve created a little collection of archived dresses called Icons\u2014and once they&amp;#039;re sold, they&amp;#039;re gone. Then I&amp;#039;m going to surprise people by just randomly putting up new dresses. Ha\u2014not randomly, late at night, though! I mainly wear my own clothes to work. I always carry two of my bags, one that is a smaller handbag style and the other that is like a bigger tote. Everything is in there\u2014say, it&amp;#039;s the Liberty bag, one of my new ones; it fits my MacBook Pro, iPad, iPad mini, and iPhone. I lug all that into the office with me. I love to read fashion magazines, and I know that you can look at all that online, but I actually like to have a magazine to hold. Being a mom, I don&amp;#039;t have a lot of time to read. 1:00 P.M. For lunch, I&amp;#039;ll have a working lunch with my team in the studio, and we&amp;#039;ll typically get sushi, something quite healthy. I do like green juices and things like that, so if they&amp;#039;re there, I&amp;#039;ll have them. But generally speaking, I drink lots of sparkling water, lots of peppermint tea. I eat and work at the same time. After lunch, I&amp;#039;ll normally pop down to an e-commerce shoot, for example, if we&amp;#039;re doing some filming or if we&amp;#039;re shooting more products. I like to get as much done between nine and four as I can. I work flat-out so I can get home.  4:00 P.M. At four o&amp;#039;clock, I leave the office and go and pick up the children, take them home, give them their dinner, take them to all their after-school activities\u2014yes, like football and rugby\u2014and start doing homework. I love children&amp;#039;s homework. And then when I put the children in bed, I&amp;#039;ll start working again. Catching up with people, because that&amp;#039;s when America is waking up. 7:00 P.M. David and I like to go out for dinner, either just the two of us or with the kids. We&amp;#039;ll go anywhere\u2014Italian, French; the kids love sushi as well. That&amp;#039;s their favorite food. Nobu&amp;#039;s really great. I don&amp;#039;t really drink too much, because I&amp;#039;m obviously sometimes up at night with the baby. But we like to go out and socialize a lot as a family. Now we&amp;#039;re back in London, so we&amp;#039;ve got lots of family here. We&amp;#039;ve also got a dog, a bulldog named Coco. She is in L.A. at the moment, and she&amp;#039;s about to come over. What&amp;#039;s on TV? Dora the Explorer, Peppa Pig. That&amp;#039;s pretty much all I watch. Of course, football is always on. The kids love football. And David, obviously. I couldn&amp;#039;t live without my kids and David. They&amp;#039;re so supportive and always encouraging me to do what I want to do. 9:00 P.M. Brooklyn doesn&amp;#039;t go to bed until about 9 or 9:30. After that, David and I get to spend time together. 12:00 A.M. I go to bed between 12 and 1. I like to get as much sleep as I can. But when you&amp;#039;re a mummy, you kind of\u2014well, it would be nice. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
