I’m going to the Czech Republic and I’m bringing with me….
Though they say I’ll be spending the next 7 days in a bathrobe and/or naked at various spas across the Czech Republic, I know that I’ll want more than just a plain white terrycloth backward snuggie. I’m ready to style the spa, but I’m also packing smart. Here’s the Czech list for what should be brought on a Spa-cation. I’ve never been on one before, so if I’m missing anything crucial, I’ll let you know at the time I need it most.

FashionIndie is taking you on a beauty and spa adventure. See what ensues when social media spa boy wizard @OzSultan and I, Indie fashion head, @JessicaLapidos, trek to the Czech Republic to discover treatments that have evolved over centuries in the natural mineral water reserves, and have kept models skinny and even-faced for even longer. Across the Atlantic, they don’t really believe in the “Day Spa”; they subscribe to at least a week of spa at a time. With CzechTourism as our generous guide, we’ve teamed up with Spa Week and the EuroSpaClub to show you how to get your body into model condition via a week of intensive wellness werq. Czech it out.

Pampering certainly isn’t the most important thing in this world, but it sure can help an aching mind and body to feel better.

For one blissful hour, I was lost in a full-body Swedish massage that melted away the stress, shoulder knots and foot pains of NYFW. Not only was the masseuse Henry incredible, the staff welcoming and the environment relaxing and friendly, but James Corbett’s nonprofit Hair2Help makes you feel good about supporting his business.
