...Prada purse" or "I threw a Manolo Blahnik mule at a mirror and haven't been able to find comfortable shoes for seven years." But instead she finishes with "I don't look at my horoscope as much as I used to." Okay, maybe flying all the way to Milan only to act like a human clothes hanger for 16 hours at a stretch gives one a real feel for the anticlimactic. Maybe even for the totally useless. What this magazine did for me is confirm my (seemingly common-sense) belief that regular, real people are far more interesting than...

I am enchanted by the melodic languages, the various delightful cuisines, the elegant fashion and, of course, the seductive men.

"I'm soaked and frozen," the 32-year-old Italian wrote in a Feb. 16 e-mail to his Milan-based racing team. Desperately trying to interpret computerized weather charts, he was also troubled.

Romijn is already distancing herself from her modeling background. "I don't like modeling that much," she says. "It's been a great trip, but straight print modeling is so mindless."
