Exploring Florence


Dress Dorothy Perkins, Wedges Prada, Sunglasses Dior, Bag Miu Miu

Thomas and I spent our second day in Florence with a private guide
(a gift from my grandparents) that took us around the city.
He explained in detail, the history behind the city and the most important
locations, statues and paintings.
Of course, he took us to see the David (which unfortunately
you cannot take pictures of) which was incredibly beautiful
and mind-blowing that Michelangelo carved it from one piece of marble.
As you can see, I obviously didn't wear wedges on our tour, but
changed into them after for some pre-dinner drinks.

    You look lovely! It sounds like you had a fabulous time-what a great gift in having the private tour! I always enjoy your blog because you and I have such similar style. I'm a big fan of not only polka dots (always have been not just because they've become more trendy recently) but also bows! Some of my friends used to comment that I really liked bows-I have several pairs of shoes too with bows. I just think it's such a pretty and feminine detail.
