Your Hen Party,
Milan Style
If fashion, glamour
and good food are your buzzwords then having your hen party in the
chic Italian city of Milan is the perfect destination for you. It’s
time to indulge yourself and your friends and we all know Italians do
it better...
To start off, you won’t
have to do too much travelling as most flights from the UK are around
the two hour mark which makes Milan an ideal destination for a hen
weekend away. Once you arrive there are numerous activities to keep
you and your guests happy. Whether you want to shop til you drop,
take a dance class, go wine tasting, see the sights on a city tour or
experience some authentic Italian food your weekend away is going to
be jam-packed!
If you are planning a
day of shopping and sightseeing, then your make up needs to stay
fresh and natural. Tinted moisturiser will even out your skin tone
and will provide protection against the sun. Urban
Decay’s Urban Defense Tinted Moisturiser
(£20.00) is great because it has SPF 20, gives good coverage and
keeps skin hydrated all day.
If you want to adopt
the beauty habits of the locals, Milanese women are known for their
sun kissed glow, you could opt for a spray tan or just add bronzer
like Soap
& Glory Solar Powder Bronzo (£11.00)
which is great for subtle shimmer and a naturally bronzed complexion.
Keep eyes fairly neutral with a pale cream shadow and lashings of
mascara to define the eyes and no day look is complete without a
slick of rosy pink lipstick, head straight to the lipstick Queens
M.A.C and bag yourself a Sunny
Seoul!
Milanese women love a
skinny jean and a designer handbag, but keep footwear practical with
a ballet flat or small wedge sandal, so you can still dance the night
away after a busy day on your feet. Most people in the know flock to
the Quadrilatero
d’Oro (Golden
Quad) in search of designer bargains or stroll down any street to
find cute boutiques and new designer stores.
If you want to see as
much as possible, hop on the open top bus tour to see the entire city
in record time. Then you can visit the huge Duomo
Cathedral, the inner city Park (it’s nicer
than it sounds) and see the amazing architecture of the financial
district.
After the sun sets, the
options are limitless. If you want more culture you could visit the
Opera or a fancy restaurant to try the culinary delights of Italy. If
you fancy something more raucous you could head on down to the party
district where clubs and trendy bars that are frequented by models
and actors can amp up the glamour of your night!
Nights out are the
ideal place to experiment with makeup, so why not try a sexy, smoky
eye? To save on packing space, go for an eyeshadow palette so all
your colours are in one place. A palette like the Bobbi
Brown Black Pearl Eye Palette (£42.00)
is great for travelling as it has all the colours you will ever need
along with a good quality brush. If eyeshadow isn’t your thing,
keep everything neutral apart from your lipstick – you can’t go
wrong with M.A.C
Red! This might take some upkeep
throughout the night but you will look super glamorous in all your
party photos.
So, now you can rock
Milan any way you want but whatever you get up to it is sure to be a
trip you will never forget. Just remember to stick together, stay
safe and have fun!
