The Fashionista Bride
If your idea of a perfect getaway includes indulging yourself immensely – spas, getting your nails done and a lot of shopping, then these 3 destinations might be your perfect starting point for organizing your getaway.
7. New York City
The Big Apple has more secret gems than what the travel guides show, so start planning and be prepared for the exploration. And I am not only talking about sightseeing, but also about the best places for all the fashionistas out there. It is called the greatest shopping destination for a good reason.
Famous department stores, chic boutiques, and even outlets are waiting to be explored. Be sure to end the day with a ‘Manhattan’ in one of the hundreds of hip bars the city has to offer.
8. Make it big in Barcelona, Spain
This city has all the ingredients for an unforgettable city break with the girls. Best experienced via a road trip if you are up for it! Beaches and sun for most of the year, shopping for as long as your feet will handle from la Rambla to Avinguda Diagonal and even a Museum of Sex.
After a day filled with color and sun, set off on a culinary tour to procure that bachelorette party food everyone is dying to try – paella restaurants, tapas bars, and amazing local wines. If by this time you are not exhausted and overwhelmed with the culture of the city, put your new shoes to use on the dancefloors of one of the many clubs. They don’t call the Spanish “Sangre Caliente” (hot blooded) for nothing.
9. Idyllic Istanbul
Another great destination – Istanbul is a great bazaar of entertainment.
Start your “girls only” getaway with a visit to the Princes’ Islands, a chain of nine small islands in the Marmara Sea that can be reached easily by ferry. There is a lot to be seen here and you might even consider getting accommodation in order to see the small chic streets with Victorian cottages without the crowds of tourists.
Back to the mainland, you can let yourself get lost in the great variety of tukrish bazaars filled with colors, shop displays that shine of gold, amazing smells of condiments and of course, the traditional
Turkey is one of my favourite countries, so if you have a bit of time, I recommend you check out the entire Aegean Sea Coastal Route.
