Today for the first time in a long time our schedule was empty. We were free to do what we pleased and did not have to visit a museum ( not that I mind them at all ), but shopping is always a lot more appealing than a museum; I am sure any fashion major would attest to that. My day of shopping started in Porta Venezia, where we stopped when we went to see the vendors and buyers for White Sposa. I really enjoyed the Armani Bookstore right off of the Metro stop
Montenapoleone. The selection of books in this store were perfect for a fashion major. They had books on various designers, Italian textiles and construction garments etc. It was a great book store, that I plan on returning to before I leave.
After the book store we shop we walked around the area to explore more shops. It is funny what you can find on the little sidewalks of Italy. Walking around I noticed a beautiful dress in a small boutique window. It turned out to be a dress worn by Kate Middleton. The rest of the day consisted of more cardio while shopping and exploring new places in Milan, and a low key night of a new place we discovered for aperitivo and some homework. It was overall and enjoyable and relaxing day off.
