"Is there anything more wonderful than taking a flight amidst the pandemic and heading towards a country you love dearly, like Italy, for instance? For a girl like me who adores fashion, there couldn't be a better trip than Florence.


The architectural marvels, fantastic food, beautiful people, and stylish attire - Italians didn't become a worldwide influence for nothing, with pizzas, pasta, and fashion. Certainly, when I say it's a fairytale, I'm not exaggerating. I was there with my family due to a work-related trip. We have an atelier in Tirana, and for decades, our family travels two or three times a year to the factories in Florence. I've been traveling there since childhood with my mom, and when I say it's a fairytale, I mean every word.


What to wear in Italy?

I think the focus should be on neutral colors. They will be your go-to. Black, navy blue, white, gray, beige will always work as these neutral colors allow for diverse styling. The first outfit will make you look beautiful and stylish. I wore this outfit on a working day; it was comfortable and ideal. It's this navy blue sweater from 'Gucci,' which would be perfect to stay warm during your day out.

Then, I chose these high-waisted jeans from 'Toteme,' which are incredibly stylish and different. This particular shade of blue makes them ideal for street style. I've paired these with these 'Karl Lagerfeld' boots, which are so comfortable and always make me feel good. I've chosen to accompany this outfit with this black leather jacket, again from 'Karl Lagerfeld.'

When in doubt about what to wear and you're in a bit of a dilemma, start your morning with a city stroll and aim for a good 'Cappuccino' in a café that brings French vibes. Even if you'd like to visit an art gallery or a show later in the evening, this outfit would be ideal, although during this pandemic, visits to such places might not be feasible, but if you happen to go to Italy, this outfit will come in handy. This gray and black fur coat, which is from 'T&N Couture,' is my favorite. This turtleneck from 'Burberry,' or rather the three-quarter sleeve turtleneck, is warm and goes very well with this coat. The jeans are the same as above. The latest trend is rain boots, even if it doesn't rain.

Fashion influencers or bloggers have been seen wearing them frequently. They're the trend of this year. Rain boots can be worn not just under jeans but also with dresses or even shorts, leather shorts, they can be worn in any season, believe me. I've decided to wear them under jeans, and I've chosen these from 'TwinSet.' The accessory I've chosen for this outfit is this small logo-emblazoned bag from 'Fendi.' Such a practical yet trendy bag. And of course, sunglasses are a must in this outfit as I am a fervent fan of them. I've chosen these from 'Dolce Gabbana.'


On the second trip, I flew to Brussels, a place for history buffs and chocolate lovers. Certainly, on both trips, I didn't have the chance to go and see new things, like museums or even sit down somewhere for a meal. There was only take-away, which was a bit disheartening, but in both different cities I went to, I felt like I owned that place, everything was mine, the streets were solely mine as there were no people.

Even if you have no plans and simply wander around the city, you'll come across some of Brussels' main spots. Brussels is a relatively small city, so it's possible to see everything in a day. Walk around the 'Galeries Royales Saint-Hubert,' marvel at the beauty and luxury of the place. See the statues: Hidden throughout the city, there are some iconic small statues you must see: Mannekin Pis, Zinneke Pis, and Jeanneke-Pis.

You'll definitely spot all three if you pay attention. In these places, I chose to dress like this: This jacket from 'TN Couture,' which I decided to pair with this black cashmere turtleneck from 'Karl Lagerfeld,' and these black leather shorts from 'Zara.' Then I chose this hat from 'Max Mara,' and the last accessory was the glasses, a accessory that adorned the outfit.

With the family, we decided to visit Luxembourg as we had never been there before.


In Luxembourg, there was no need to worry about safety, as it is one of the safest places in the world. A multicultural and multilingual place, you'll be surprised to hear so many different languages spoken on the streets.

In Luxembourg, I dressed simply as I thought everything would be closed like in every other place, I had information that not everything was closed, but I didn't believe it. And it turned out to be true; Luxembourg was the only place that was open, everything was open.

Masks were not mandatory, the eateries were full, the streets were full, and most importantly, people were all dressed beautifully. I thought I was dressed too simply, and it was somewhat true; there were people dressed well and appreciating the attire. My outfit was this: I never part with my cowboy jeans, a short-sleeved black blouse, a simple blue coat, the everyday black bag, and the black sunglasses. Simple or not?! These were my five outfits during these two trips. I hope you liked them, and I'd love for you to ask me anything that comes to mind when reading this article."
