Life after Europe!

Where do I even begin. Life is not as exciting being back in the U.S. compared to living the life in Italy. It is back to full time school,work and STRESS. I think I took my time in Italy for granted everything was so simple over there unlike here in America. Life in Atlanta is just the same stuff every day and most importantly lacking culture. Most of all I miss the amazing friends I made and amount of time I had just to enjoy all the beautiful places in Italy. Life is just so precious!
 I have exactly 19 weeks till I am done with college forever and will have my B.A.!Im stoked about being able to pursue my career goals in the fashion Public relations industry. I am so ready to move back to New York City it is just eating me alive thinking about it! Since I'm not in Italy anymore I have decided that I want to continue my blog as a blog that follows fashion and culture in other parts of the world. Stay tuned for my favorite new fall trends!

"Jetsetter"



Long weekend spent in Amsterdam, Netherlands it snowed so much that I thought it was going to turn into a blizzard. While staying in Amsterdam I got to visit the famous Red light District,Heineken Brewery,Ann Frank House and Madame Toussauds Wax museum. The best part of Amsterdam was the falaffels which if you dont know what it is I will tell you it is heaven on earth in food form!!!! I can now honestly say that I can wipe Amsterdam off my bucket list , one of my favorite vacation spots in Europe!

"Strike a pose"

I just love this cover page with Gisele on the Italian Vogue!  Her beauty astonishes me, I just dont understand how someone can look so perfect! She is one of my favorite supermodels solely because I am obssesed with watching the Victorias Secret annual holiday runway show and this year I am missing it since we dont get CBS in Italy. She always rocks the runway and the costumes make me feel like I am in fantasy land!

"Milanese Thanks"

  As I think about how much I miss my family during the holidays living in Milan I get really sad but on the flip side, I was lucky enough to get to experience a American Thanksgiving at a restaurant in Milan called Fiori Oscuri. It is owned by a man from Chicago, Illinois and it was so tasty because it featured pumpkin soup,turkey and dressing just what is needed during thanksgiving. They even served us pumpkin pie at the end and it was delightful! To top it off they even had American football in english Dallas Cowboys vs the New Orleans Saints surrounded by great friends can you say "Life is GOOD"!

"Only in Paris"


While exploring one day, we discovered that there was a Louis Vuitton Museum exhibit going on. It was the best exhibit I have ever seen the archive was very large and contained some of the first Louis Vuitton trunks dating back to the 1800's. My Paris trip wouldn't have been the same without visiting this exhibit!  I found some awesome vintage luggage that I would die for!

"Can you say Marie Antoinette"

I felt like I had stepped into a fairytale when I walked into the Palace of Versailles. The whole gate surrounding the palace and the palace itself was covered in gold. Gold was everyone in the interior, including the doors and there was so many rooms. I was scared to wonder off by myself because I was nervous I would get lost. My favorite room was Marie Antoinette's room her bed and walls were covered in spectacular upholstery and decorations. The garden which was outside of the palace was another one of my favorites about Versailles.  The landscape was like nothing I had ever seen before. It reminded me of the garden in Alice and Wonderland. For a few minutes in the garden I forgot where I was and was just daydreaming I was so overwhelmed by the beauty. I stared at the Palace and thought I wonder how long it took to build such a gigantic building and how wonderful it must have been to live your whole life in such a beautiful palace.  If only I could be a queen for the day, wouldn't that be the life!

"Bonjour PARIS"

I can honestly say there is not another city like Paris, I was taken back by all the beautiful architecture and French culture. The Eiffel Tower was not as big as I pictured in my head but still breathtaking.  I got a kick out of being able to use my French speaking skills from high school especially when getting lost on the way to the Louvre. Paris was amazing in every way from the Louvre, Louis Vuitton museum, Eiffel Tower, Moulin Rouge and Promostyle which is my favorite trend forecasting agency. I am really contemplating moving there in the future if it is at all possible. I can dream Big!!!!!!!!
