Passion for Italian fashion: Take 1
Hello again America! After what seems like an eternity of travel days I’m back in the states after my two week trip to Rome, Florence, Venice, and Milan Italy, and it was nothing short of what I dreamt it to be. Typically for a fashion obsessed gal like me my version of sight seeing was checking out every store in the country and taking lots of notes on Italian fashion. However, I was surprised at what I found. In cities like Rome and Florence functionality seemed to be the common theme. The chilly temps called for cozy jackets and vests, and boots were everywhere. Unlike New York City where many people are dressed in their finest ensembles, fancy coats and shoes were few and far between (with the exception of the folks in Milan of course). Rather instead, leggings, combat boots and the ever popular puffy jackets were the regular sight to be seen. While I do love my down coat, I saw so many while I was there that I would be satisfied if I never saw another one for months…..More posts with pictures to come
