This past trip to Italy was my first time overseas and we did quite a bit of traveling around. From Florence, to Rome, to Amalfi, Positano, Capri and back to Florence and into the Tuscany countryside, I saw and learned a lot. I'm sure there is plenty more to learn and easily plenty more to see but I wanted to share 10 things I learned while there:
1. Toilets & Restrooms | Often times restrooms are singles and not gender specific. Additional, toilet seats are next to non-existent, so you're either squatting or sitting on the bowl. I had also heard that sometimes you would need your own paper so always kept tissue travel packs on me, but never had that problem. Also, it feels frowned upon to use a restaurant or store's washroom unless you're buying something there.

I love the scuba / foam material trend that has been around for about a year or so but I'm just hoping on board now with this amazing, boxy top. Definitely the kind of top that adds volume but the structure and quality of it is really beautiful. It makes a statement despite it being super simplistic.
These new skinnies are super high-waisted and while I'm not showing it off in this outfit, I wore them with a hi-low sweater the other day and felt half like my mom back in the day, and half chic--a great combination, if you ask me. I never thought I'd be feeling the high-waisted trend but I'm loving it. Next on my wish list? Some high-waisted dark denim flares like these.
As I mentioned yesterday, on Saturday, Marco and I took a mini road trip to the US to get his new tires and do some minor shopping while we waited. I am bringing you guys along for the full day plus randomness when we got home and a mini haul.
Thanks for watching! xo
New kicks; I've been wanting a pair of black hi-tops and Supras are my favourite. Love the pony hair and gold detail on these babies (they are also men's)--perfect for the gym or an edgier look with leather pants.
On Friday night I hit the gym, took my time and then popped into Winners on my way home where I found this adorable soap dish. It was the only thing I purchased and it felt a little frivolous but I really love it (and currently have my soap in a small dipping pot that is for eating!).
On our second last day in Florence, we did a wine tour in Tuscany, which, for a last minute booking, was one of the best experiences of Italy...
