The 2015 Grammys has officially wrapped, friends.

But don't put your voting ballots and drinking games away yet—Oscars is a mere two weeks away. How should we prepare for all the style and beauty eye candy we're about to behold? Like an industry pro, of course.

We asked Marie Claire senior fashion editor and E! News style correspondent Zanna Roberts Rassi how exactly she makes her way from co-hosting a very eventful Grammys E! After Party show to New York Fashion Week to the Oscars.

"Red wine and coffee with lashings of half and half," she admitted. And, apparently, Crest 3D White Whitestrips to help counteract her stress-induced vices, she added. A confident smile is essential to her job, after all.

In the next two weeks, Zanna will be zooming between runways (say hi to Marc, Calvin and Ralph for us!), back in LA for Tom Ford's first-ever West Coast show and spending time with her adorable twins based in New York. She may not have time for a workout, but the clothing changes are enough cardio for anyone.

"I need about 20 looks total for seven days of fashion!" Zanna said of her NYFW outfits. The style editor has had her finely manicured finger on the fashion pulse since the season's collections have hit the runway. Zanna may even make an appearance on the street style blogs in Phillip Lim menswear-inspired looks, Burberry jackets and/or Stella McCartney dresses.

As for Oscars, that plan is still up in the air.

"I wish I was that organized—sadly not," she said. "I need three changes in total for the day. I see most looks on the runway or in look books then we request."

Perhaps the looks are not yet locked down, but be rest assured Zanna will be on her A-game, prepped and ready to go for red carpet coverage.

"My assistant Natalie and I decamp in our room, surrounded by fancy frocks, dangerous looking shoes, diamonds, mint Tic Tacs, beef jerky and binders filled with research," she said.

Sure, she may be tired from jetting from coast to coast, but she won't look like it.

"A good hairdo will disguise tired eyes!" Zanna advised. "And I remember that I have one of the best jobs in the world."
