Meet covergirl and model Diana Penty

She was a hot favourite at Lakme Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2009 and now she's made it to the cover of Elle magazine -- yet again. Twenty three-year-old Diana Penty, the model of the moment, lists her simple yet classic preferences in life.

"I follow basic guidelines for a good skin regime -- drinking lots of water, getting enough sleep, exercising regularly and eating healthy. I cleanse, tone, and moisturise my skin daily. And I always make sure to use sunscreen before I step out. I'm a Maybelline-addict and absolutely love every minute of being the new face of the brand."

"I make sure to work out at least four days a week at the gym -- a mixture of cardio and weight training."

"Simple. Classic. Understated. I'm not fond of anything that's fussy or loud."

"Most of my travel is to places my work takes me and it's a different city each time. This is exactly why I love what I do. On vacation, I land up where my family and friends are: Los Angeles, Toronto or London. But my favourite destination so far is Cape Town in South Africa - it's one of the most beautiful cities in the world."

A few of my favourite things:

In My Bag: My wallet, sunglasses, iPod, cell phone, keys and lip balm
