Maggie's Farm Nail bar @ Topshop

A couple of weeks ago my friend Kate and I decided to treat ourselves with a girly day. We went to Maggie's Farm Nail Bar, which is in Topshop on Princes Street. We booked an appointment and I got my nails done for the first time! (I know it took me a while to try this experience).

Once we got there we decided what to get done, the lovely lady has been extremely patient with us as deciding was't easy. The options are many and all veeeery cool. In the end we both went for a gel manicure with nail art on one nail on each hand and here's the result.

It took about 45 minutes to get my nails done and it's a nice thing to do with a friend, being in Topshop the "risk" is the temptation of shopping around while you wait for your turn, obviously we didn't resist to this temptation and we got out with new nails and new clothes!

Ted&Muffy Edinburgh

This post arrives a little late because of some problems but here it is. Few months ago I've been lucky enough to be invited to the event at the Ted&Muffy store in Edinburgh and it was one of the best store events I took part to.

Once we got there we got an introduction about the brand and then we enjoyed the night between drinks, food and of course shoes, amazing shoes. 

At the end of the night each one of us got the chance to pick a pair of shoes, get a professional fitting, which was something new to me and that I really enjoyed and then receive the precious parcel at home.

We all were over the moon, so much choice!At the end I decided and I went for Comet Boots in black. A beautiful and unique pair of leather over the knee boots. I decided to go for something that I couldn't find anywhere else, this boots are statement shoes.

I think they look great on every simple outfit and the instantly make it great and remarkable....here are my Comet Boots!

How beautiful is the box by the way!Amazing!Thank you Ted&Muffy!

My Expo

When I went back in Italy I decided to go to Expo, after all the fuss about it I couldn't miss it, such an event, in my hometown! So I went there right the day after I arrived pale like I've never been before at that time of the year, beginning of September, and the security started talking to me in english. I was like "what?I'm italian!" and the guard "aw sorry, you're so white!". Good start.

Once you arrive with other 1000000 people you walk through the Decumano, a 2 km or so street with all the pavilions on both sides. To get into each pavilion there a queue more or less long, this is the annoying part, you won't make it to see it all in a day but I don't even think it worth it, so do your research and pick.

I visited Austria forest, UK hive, Italy, China pagoda.

Food is the topic of Expo but I didn't want to spend too much time for food because I wanted to see as much as I could so I did just two stops, one for a dessert I tried years ago in Prague, the tredelnik, I don't know how to describe it but it delicious and then I wen to McDonald's one of the main sponsors of Expo but just because they did this lobster roll special just for this venue and I've to say it was good and not too junk food as I expected it to be.

In the end I can say that it was worth it but I don't think 3 hours queue to see the inside of the pavilions worth it, it's more about the atmosphere and the architecture outside than the exhibition inside.

Soon a blog on my channel TheMeneghinGirl about this day at Expo.
