Bullshit, the adult alternative to snap. To counter its lude
name, a classier playing card is required. This pack by
London-based artist Fee Greening (in collaboration with Alex Eagle)
fits the bill. From the ace of spades through to the king of hearts
each of the 54 cards are designed in Greening’s distinctive style,
illustrated through a process of old-fashioned quills, dip pens and
ink. Edged with silver, this deck is mega flash – and a great time
passer on lengthy
train journeys.

If the iridescent glow from your airline’s tubular lighting
creates an in-flight atmosphere that is less than restful, slip on
this sumptuous mask (made from 100% silk) and get some shut-eye.
It’s the perfect companion for any journey on which you’re hoping
to catch some z’s, as well as for keeping out morning rays at your
final destination. For added flair, get yours monogrammed through
Yolke’s online service – which will also make it more difficult for
your friend to pinch it.

a planner and more of a spontaneous adventurer this app
is a lifesaver as well as a cash saver.

A tortoiseshell toothbrush handcrafted in Italy sounds like the
property of one suave traveller. Such an object could only be
sourced from Officine Universelle Buly. The Parisian
store, modelled on a 19th-century apothecary, stocks beautifully
packaged lotions, potions and rather striking toothbrushes. This
particular example boasts bristles which are natural silk (which
surprisingly caters to those with a preference for more strength in
their brush). For those who can’t resist a little monogramming,
Officine’s acetate-made toothbrushes can be personalised too.

For a casual, health-conscious in-flight meal we’re taking a
detour via Hanover
Square en route to Heathrow. Restaurateur Juan Santa Cruz’s (of
Casa Cruz and Isabel notoriety) third instalment, Nathalie, takes
the form of a chic deli-style eatery. Powered by a takeaway app,
we’re all about their Mediterranean bento boxes. Load up for
long-haul or short trips and bypass the loathsome utterance of
“pasta or chicken”?
