I just realise the error of my ways - I can't believe I didn't look closely enough to see they were made of chocolate. I seriously need my new glasses. Sorry about that. &lt;chuckle, blush, bang head against wall!&gt; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---first-day-back-from-milan-bonus-pics#post-867640 Tue, 05 Mar 2013 07:36:53 +0000 Astrid 867640@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Rachylou!</p> <p>Thanks Aida! Agree that they look yummy - but way too expensive to actually buy and try one.</p> <p>Thanks Katiepea! And no, they wouldn't let me try them for some reason. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---first-day-back-from-milan-bonus-pics#post-867520 Tue, 05 Mar 2013 04:03:33 +0000 Katiepea 867520@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look lovely in your outfit and I just have to say your flower ring is to die for. </p> <p>As an aside, did you go inside the store and dare to try on any of those beautiful shoes as featured in the photo? I'm insanely curious to know. ;-)</p> <p>Thanks so much for sharing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---first-day-back-from-milan-bonus-pics#post-867397 Tue, 05 Mar 2013 02:17:28 +0000 Aida 867397@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome back Astrid, looks like you had a great trip! Fab outfit today, your dark floral dress always makes me want a dark floral sleeved dress too! Thanks for sharing the lovely photos, my first thought on the shoes/bags was "THEY LOOK YUMMY" and then it makes more sense to read that they actually ARE yummy </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---first-day-back-from-milan-bonus-pics#post-867300 Tue, 05 Mar 2013 00:23:44 +0000 rachylou 867300@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just beautiful, you and the setting </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---first-day-back-from-milan-bonus-pics#post-866866 Mon, 04 Mar 2013 16:16:12 +0000 Astrid 866866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone! :)</p> <p>Ingunn, that's wonderful!

Old, European cultural institutions are magical places indeed. You look pretty great yourself, too. I love that ring in particular. </p> <p>OT: Your red shoes have been worn three times already during the last week, and I've received several nice compliments about them. They are perfect for me. I'm so glad you sent them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---first-day-back-from-milan-bonus-pics#post-865722 Sat, 02 Mar 2013 23:54:49 +0000 Day Vies 865722@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are stunning pictures. Thanks so much for sharing! It takes me back to college, I took a classes in gothic art and architecture. </p> <p>The print in your dress is lovely and even nicer with the ring. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---first-day-back-from-milan-bonus-pics#post-865678 Sat, 02 Mar 2013 23:17:56 +0000 Caro in Oz 865678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really enjoyed reading about your trip, thanks for sharing - beautiful photos. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---first-day-back-from-milan-bonus-pics#post-865554 Sat, 02 Mar 2013 21:01:22 +0000 bj1111 865554@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>astrid, your travel outfit looks so appropriate to the city and the weather.</p> <p>your back home outfit is cute and fun. that ring is fabulous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---first-day-back-from-milan-bonus-pics#post-865551 Sat, 02 Mar 2013 20:59:03 +0000 Astrid 865551@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Shannon! No, the ring in #2 is a present I got for YLF Secret Santa 2011. Vani bought it for me. It makes me happy every time I wear it. I didn't buy anything fashion related in Milan. I did have a look, but I didn't find anything within my budget that was worth coming home with me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---first-day-back-from-milan-bonus-pics#post-865531 Sat, 02 Mar 2013 20:37:22 +0000 Transcona Shannon 865531@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Astrid - what beautiful, beautiful pictures. Thank you so much for sharing these with us. Your ring in pic #2 is so lovely - did you buy that on your trip? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---first-day-back-from-milan-bonus-pics#post-865530 Sat, 02 Mar 2013 20:36:23 +0000 Astrid 865530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Suz! Now that you've said it, the outside picture is fairly true to my colors. No flash and no artificial light or sunshine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---first-day-back-from-milan-bonus-pics#post-865526 Sat, 02 Mar 2013 20:33:07 +0000 Suz 865526@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous, Astrid! Thank you for sharing. It is so great to see an outside picture of you and get a truer sense of your actual hair colour! Love the museum and store pics, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---first-day-back-from-milan-bonus-pics#post-865524 Sat, 02 Mar 2013 20:31:08 +0000 Astrid 865524@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Runcarla! It was magical, that's the right word. We also saw some great libraries with modern stock, but the old books are of course impressive.</p> <p>Thanks Ornella! As you can see I still love my YLF ring. That's true about the way they display things, it's lovely to discover all the great visuals around. I thought I'd say nothing about the chocolats shoes and see if someone comments on them. I saw them at a delicatessen store and knew I just had to take a picture for you all.</p> <p>Thanks Harmonica! Yes, it was a field excursion, so to say. We were a group of 16 students. I didn't know most of them before, but it was a great group. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---first-day-back-from-milan-bonus-pics#post-865486 Sat, 02 Mar 2013 20:00:09 +0000 harmonica 865486@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great, Astrid! Absolutely love the library and book pic! Thanks for sharing What kind of trip was this? Studies related? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---first-day-back-from-milan-bonus-pics#post-865480 Sat, 02 Mar 2013 19:56:51 +0000 Ornella 865480@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome back. What an adorable outfit that looks and feels very you. Cute ring ;-)</p> <p>And beautiful, beautiful photos. How lucky were you with the museum arrangements!</p> <p>Aren't Italians amazing in the way they create, display and enjoy beautiful things?? I've been pondering that ever since I came back from Italy a week ago. Just look at that chocolate window display on photo 9 - it took me a while to figure out those are not real shoes and bags :-))) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---first-day-back-from-milan-bonus-pics#post-865478 Sat, 02 Mar 2013 19:55:04 +0000 Carla 865478@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lucky you! The inside of the libraries/ museums looks magical. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---first-day-back-from-milan-bonus-pics#post-865473 Sat, 02 Mar 2013 19:45:38 +0000 Astrid 865473@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here's what I wore today! A happy outfit after almost a week in blue jeans, gear jacket, sneakers or boots. My travel capsule was practical and worked out perfectly, but it got a bit boring at the end.</p> <p>Milan was fabulous! The weather was really bad the first two days and didn't get much better until the last day, but it was great all the same. We were able to do some tourist things in our free time. The rest was awesome too, lots of great libraries, some quite old. And of course old manuscripts and incunabula up close without a glass barrier... And we got to visit some famous paintings when museums were officially closed thanks to invitations, which was awesome. </p>
