Holding the title as a fashion capital is nothing new for
Milan, or as the Italians call it "Milano", in fact, Milano has been
one of THE fashion capitals of the world since the 1970s. Not only does fashion
come to Milano from all over the world every year during fashion week, many
of the top designers are housed in this Italian metropolis. This past weekend I
traveled to Milano and met my very best friend who flew in from Sweden.
Although, Milan is not the most typical tourist choice such as Rome or Venice,
it is the perfect place for a weekend getaway. It has just enough to keep you
busy for a few days, including great food, delicious dessert, many beautiful
landmarks such as the Duomo di Milano, as well as the Last Supper painting
which is only a few blocks away. Not to mention the unlimited amount of
boutiques all the way from affordable brands to the high end
designers such as Valentino, Dior, Louis Vuitton and the list goes on. Here are some pictures from our fabulous first day in
Milano!
