Grey is the New Black!

This is my kast day in Florence and I am going to miss not being able to wear my summer clothes every day of the week, I don't think denim cut-offs and a vest will go down well in England unless I have a penchant for pneumonia... Yesterday, I found the most incredible shop selling beautiful bags and purses and I came away with this suede beauty below - I hope you can see it against the camoflaging paving stones!? I simply love the colour, design and most importantly size, and spent literally ages deciding on the colour and style as there was so many to choose from. Tomorrow I am due to fly back to London and am trying to work out how not to be charged the huge excess for my overweight suitcase, answers on a postcard...

Carousels, Sugar and Russian Hats...

So, I've now been in Florence now for just over a week and am loving it! I have spent the days wandering aimlessly around the city discovering delicious gelaterias (proof of my pistacchio ice-cream above), stumbling across beautiful boutiques and of visiting some cultural sights - as well as studying of course... Here are a few things that caught my eye in the city namely clothes and sweet food! If anyone has any recommendations then please let me know.

Florence Bound!

Ciao tutti! I have escaped to Florence for three weeks worth of sun, shopping and studies which is very exciting. It is my first morning in Florence and already I am wanting to gorge on gelati - is it wrong to want this at 11am!? - and hit the shops in a big way! I shall keep you posted, quite literally, on all that's hot about Florence. X
