Milano


A group of my friends and I went north this weekend to visit one of Italy's most "industrial" cities, Milano. We went to celebrate Amelia's 21st birthday, but happened to stumble upon Fashion Week without even realizing we had booked our trip for the same weekend all the fabulousness was taking place…I was drooling over the accessories & shoes all weekend while trying to capture as much as I could on my camera (post to come!). We absolutely loved Milan – how can you not? It's home to Prada, Dolce & Gabbana, Tods, and da Vinci's Last Supper. It's also Italy's second most populous city, after Rome. Enjoy my photo diary!

to you and yours

I hope everyone had a wonderful Valentines day! My three best friends and I went to our favorite sushi spot downtown and celebrated the things in life we do have, rather than focusing on being single ladies. Naturally, bowls and bowls of ginger accompanied our feast as well as some delicious treats from Bittersweet Bakery. How did you celebrate?
