After a few days in Florence, Tor and I rented another car (a little manual BMW) and drove about an hour south of Florence to the Tuscan wine region of Chianti. There are so many little towns within Chianti, but we settled on Radda in Chianti as our next destination.

If a city has royal history, you know I have to spent at least one day exploring its royal historical roots. For our second day in Florence, Tor and I decided to visit the Pitti Palace on the south side of the Arno.

In case you haven’t caught on, “florals” was pretty much the theme of my wardrobe on our Italy trip! It was only appropriate since it was springtime when we visited Europe, even in the big metropolitan cities like Florence which was our next destination after Portofino.

Flowers in Portofino

I have been super excited to write this blog post since before we even officially booked anything. I have wanted to visit Portofino so badly since I was fourteen. The reason is kind of dorky but I am not ashamed!

I decided to save this part of Madrid for its own separate post. For those of you who don’t know this already about me, I am obsessed with European royal history – specifically British royal history – but also modern day royalty.

A few months ago, when T booked his new television series that was to film in Spain immediately after our wedding, we made the decision to change our honeymoon plans from Hawaii to Europe.

“Oh my goodness – it’s a blog post where Alyssa isn’t wearing a skirt or a dress!” – That’s probably what you thought, right? It’s true, most of my fashion choices involve a skirt or a dress, but what are my key style staples when the occasion (or season) doesn’t call for a dress?

Style Staples

If it’s not already obvious, I think it’s safe to say I am obsessed with dresses. The two biggest sections of our master bedroom closet are saved for all of my dresses. I love that I live in a city where it’s possible to wear a lovely dress all year round.
