There's something about being in a foreign city for the first time, that sense of adventure that comes with discovering new favourite places to eat, shop, drink in...
Love, love, love it! Milano has one of the loveliest old quarters to stroll through, and I did that in the evenings. I'll be honest, the shopping is outrageous, as in luxury brands at each turn.
One might go crazy deciding where to start... I lost my willpower in the Hermes store... can you ever have too many of their lovely scarves?
I think not, dear friends. If you do visit, I recommend, - several cards, or a sugar daddy.
Oh, and a personal driver, translator and shopping bag boy.
Aside from the shopping, there's the galleries, museums, incredible architecture. All good for your Inner Muse and I will be back, am sure. Here's a little photo montage from my Milano wanderings... along cobblestoned lanes.

As if you need a reason to buy...
I WANTED those boxes. |

| Hmm just keep walking.... |
 |
Tempting... but keep walking... quickly
And don't look back |

Beautiful shopping arcade...
Look carefully, the most luxurious
Golden Arches. |

Prada that...
Fab shoes for men methinks. |

A/N: Happy Friday! I hope this week has been good to you. I'm a little under the weather this weekend. So it'll be a quiet detox, polishing chapters, BBQ if the sun plays nicely, and oh... drafting packing list. Yes, I'm that retentive. I'll be away at end of next week for some R&R in the deep dark woods. There may be clay pigeon shooting... Whats on your diary? Talei xox

Happy Weekend!
I finally posted my fave seven sweets but I added a little bit of sin too ;) You'll have to stop by and check it out. Thanx again for the award!
Happy Friday!!!
Thanks for sharing these fabulous pictures. Have a restful weekend and have fun w/ that list.
Feel better and enjoy our week in the woods.
I would LOVE to join you one of those shopping trips. I could certainly use a new pair of Prada loafers. It's been ages since I bought a pair.
Enjoy your weekend.
TS, decadence fits the shopping streets perfectly. And people watching in that area, even better. I recommend. ;-)
Savannah, cheers! Yup, I am looking forward to some downtime in the woods.
MsHatch, its fab! I'm in love with that orange dress. ;-)
Nicki, thanks! Its a lovely place to shop, though I can't recall the bull there, was it a statue? I did however partake in a little, ahem, gelato. ;-))
Michael, if we're ever in the same city - we are SO going shopping for shoes! I loved the mens summer Prada espadrilles this season. This trip was business but I did manage some shopping in the evenings. Have a fab w/end too! x
Danette, merci beaucoup! Ah, the 'list of places to visit?' How long is a piece of string? There's so much to see in this world. *clink clink* (with H20 today) ;-))
Thanx for sharing!
