Capri Indeed

Our very last stop is here in Capri, Italy. I was so excited to be here and get to experience everything this fabulous place had to offer. Including but not limited to more pizza and Limoncello. Capri is filled to the gills with high end shops and great places to eat.

A little squid and pizza before we started shopping. The squid was the best I have ever had and so amazingly fresh. We were surprised that the third stop in Italy was the first time we saw Cannoli's!  I'm not a dessert person but this was amazing and I'm fairly certain none will ever be quite this good.

As I said there is so much shopping here! I got to cross something HUGE off of my bucket list which was getting to shop at La Perla!! It was a good day and one to be remembered.

This bad boy was mine while MK got another Cannoli.

On our way back, we had to stop in Naples (the birthplace of pizza) and found an adorable pizza joint and met some pretty fabulous new friends (from Philly nonetheless). Perks of traveling indeed.

Thanks for coming along on our European trip! It's has been wonderful to be able to share this with all of you!

Carefree Color Combos

Some of my favorite outfits end up being ones that I put basically no thought into and just throw something together. I feel like a lot of the time it's easy to get stuck in the same color palette. This one was out of my comfort zone and I was really happy with the outcome. Also, I just love my new pearls from Spain. I find something almost poetic in their imperfection.

Moral of it all? Step out in something a little different.

Roaming In Rome

Our next stop is Rome! One thing that always goes hand in hand for Rome is the architecture. No matter where you look it is a gorgeous array of beautiful buildings, famous fountains, and statues you only saw in your history books.

Local beer and pizza only made the experience that much better. Are we sick of pizza yet? Never.

In Kate Spade's book "Travel Colorfully" she recommends when in Rome, to buy a pair of colored leather gloves. Well, that is exactly what I did and I've got to say this glove store was my favorite! Just look at all of the colors! I went with green of course.

Sitting on the Spanish Steps eating Gelato and people watching was a pretty fabulous moment. Maybe not for the lady in the top left corner but certainly for us.  

You can't go to Rome and not see the Coliseum!  

A favorite thing that I noticed is Italians love to feed you. So when just ordering drinks they give you adorable canapés! All delicious by the way, just in case you had doubts.

We also shopped like crazy people here. Not only in just the stores we came across but we found this market too! MK loaded up on some of the softest sweaters I've ever felt and I got a Pashmina.

After an entire day of walking, shopping, and site seeing we were starving! Sitting in Vatican City, we enjoyed tortellini and linguini and were in heaven!

One more stop to go! Until next time!
