Firenze, Days 3&4

My dear italian friend Matilde.
I was so glad we got to see her, she is so much fun.
Finally got to see LuisaViaRoma
Such a cool store

All the below pictures are from my visit to the Boboli Gardens,
which were the personal gardens of the Medici family back in the day.
Really beautiful.

xx!

The Prada Outlet

Yesterday I had the most glorious trip to the Prada outlet. I cannot even begin to describe the joy it brought to me. It was organized so well, looked like a store, and had an amazing stock, nothing junky or gross like what you might think of when hearing outlet. I literally could have spent the entire day (not just 4 hours) there. I was in heaven amongst especially the shoes (Miu Miu's are my favorites).


I definitely forgot about taking photos (blame all the merchandise, it was distracting me) but I did manage to snap a few. Despite the lack of photos, I highly recommend it ( it is about 45 mins. outside of Firenze). As in, I would totally go again right now if you asked me.


One small glimpse :)
One (yes, one) of the shoe sections.
A necklace I tried on.
Pretty sick right?
A present for the Mama :)
A little glimpse at what I got; my first Prada!!
Can you guess what it was?

Firenze, Day 2

Today we went to a tiny little village called Il Borro in the hills of Tuscany, which is owned entirely by the Ferragamo Family. (Yes, that Ferragamo Family).
We then got to bike through the hills and visit a gelateria, where they made me gluten free pasta and bread, which was just so amazing.
Enjoy!

Obviously, not me, since I am not a man.

Firenze, Day 1


Ciao from Firenze (Florence)!
In day 1 of our Italy series, we have sightseeing around Florence.
The Duomo, The Ponte Vecchio, The David, oh wait, photos of that aren't allowed. (If they were, there would be  whole post dedicated to him and his chiseled body and outrageously sized head and hands.)
Nevertheless, I hope you enjoy the below photos without the hunky marble man.


He's watching you.
So are they...
Obviously I missed the memo about the dress code here in Firenze
I want these for my apartment. Not really. Just kidding. No I'm not. What?
This is what I actually want for my apartment.
No jokes this time.
