It feels like so long ago we were in Milan in the 35 degree heat, eating pizza and gelato, and wasting time in the Wes Anderson cafe (which also had air conditioning and free wi-fi - score). I'd never been before and people had warned me that Milan wasn't as beautiful as Rome or as unusual as Venice. But the more of Italy I visit the more certain I become that there isn't an inch of it I wouldn't like. True, Milan is not like Rome, you don't feel like you're walking round a living museum, and sure, it's canal doesn't seem as mysterious and magical as those in Venice. But I loved it, it's the hard working cousin of those cities, it's built for production, and it's just as stunning. I wrote a bit about where we ate
over here, and there are photos of
Wes' cafe here. The top and skirt I'm wearing are from
Sister Jane, shoes are
