Before I show you the delights of Milan’s shop windows I have to describe something I saw this morning. I was waiting the usual 30 – 45 minutes at the post office in Ponte a Serraglio when the woman who cleans the office arrived. She had masses of curly black hair, elaborate make up, a short, tight black skirt, black lace stockings, over the knee suede boots with belts and buckles and beautifully painted nails in rouge noir. She quite made my day, and my wait in line worthwhile.
Now have a look at the gorgeous new things for spring.
