Welcome to Day 2 of Milan - the busiest on ELLE Beauty's backstage schedule. Today was all about Pasta and Prada.

Hair look of the day: Prada's high ponies with a twist topped off with sparkly barrettes - another Guido masterpiece. 

Make-up look of the day: Tom Pecheux's 'Marilyn Monroe on the beach' at Max Mara. Sun-kissed skin for AW15? Yes please.

I found: Gorgeous Gigi Hadid backstage at Max Mara prepping for her first show of Milan Fashion Week.

What I wore: Marni glitz and faux fur. When in Milan...

I ate: Exceptionlly good cakes (plural) from Convivium. Eaten after pasta.

I loved: The achingly cool mono moodboards at Costume National. All. black. everything.

I spotted: That sometimes MAC nail teams use bronze glitter polish (the look at Just Cavalli) to cross off models. Beats a biro anyway.
