Gok im Himmel

Gok Wan, presenter of How to Look Good Naked, has teamed up with Air New Zealand to launch the online guide Style in the Sky, available at www.airnewzealand.co.uk. Tips include packing advice and inflight hair and beauty tips for him and her. “I like to sleep on my flights,” says Gok. “It's a great way for catching up on you time.” Would love to see a picture of him after 26 hours by the loos on the back row of economy from Auckland and see how ab fab he looks then.

Hot spot

Forget The X Factor, the question for those of you in the South West is do you have the Devon Factor? The local tourist board is looking for three Devonians to represent the county and convince more of us to holiday there. Auditions are taking place in Barnstaple, Exeter and Plymouth next week (www.lovemydevon.co.uk). The person or group that delivers the most successful publicity campaign will win £10,000.

Debrief

Who says that limited-edition fashion has to cost a packet? The South African company Springleap (www.springleap.com) invites people to submit T-shirt designs via the web, which you can then vote for online. The most popular are produced and sold in its eSquared shops in Cape Town (11 Regent Road) and Durban (161 Gordon Road) for about 185 rand (£12).

You flexy thing

If your chalet girl-chasing days are but a wistful memory and your stops for vin chaud get longer and longer, you may need this device from Ski Mojo (www.ski-mojo.com, £289). The thigh support is worn under your ski pants, acting as a shock absorber and reducing knee strain. It won't improve your dancing to Joe le taxi in the nightclub, though.
