My Trip to Palermo, Italy with Dolce and Gabbana.

​To start, I am so honoured to be invited not only once but for the second year around, to attend the Dolce and Gabbana haute couture events. This summer the events were held at Palermo, the capital city of the beautiful Italian island of Sicily.
 
I was so excited about attending this special event again, but even more about visiting Palermo. Although it isn’t a highly advanced or a luxurious city, but the culture and history it has just made it very appealing.

Upon arriving at the Palermo Airport, we were greeted by the friendly faces of the Dolce and Gabbana Team, escorting us towards our ride to the hotel. Once we were checked in, we settled down at this beautiful room, with a modern traditional interior design. I must say the staff at this hotel has gone beyond their duty to make our stay extra comfortable. How many hotels would go out in the middle of the night to buy a pizza and deliver it to their guest? None, except Hotel Palazzo Sitano. Also the amazing Dolce and Gabbana ground staff, which was always so friendly and helpful to organized cars to drive us to and from places, and answer all our questions.

During this week, there were quite a few different events happening everyday, along side with the pop up DG store, bar, and restaurant. After we freshen up from our flight, we thought to visit the DG pop up store. It was located by the port, with a large spacious store, and a Tropical Italian outdoor bar and restaurant. The store not only stocks their latest ready to wear clothes, but also specially made for this summer event outfits as well. One thing I loved from last summer and was looking forward to was the fabric shopping bag you get from any purchase at the pop up store. It is a great little souvenir to remember this trip by.
