Fontana di Trevi

Hi! I hope you’re having a lovely weekend so far. I’m sadly back from my holidays, but I’ve decided to share my first outfit post from the trip.

Usually, I write just one big blog post per destination and call it a travel guide, but this time I want to do things a little differently. I’ll be spreading the posts out and focusing each one on a specific topic — some on fashion, others on the best restaurants in Rome, or even where to catch the most beautiful sunsets.

I can’t wait to share it all with you.

Rome Outfit No. 1

Starting my Rome posts with this first outfit. Some time ago, I completely fell in love with turtleneck jumpers, and now I probably own one in every colour. They’re such timeless pieces, simple, elegant, and they go with absolutely everything. So if you don’t already have a classic black or white turtleneck in your wardrobe, you might need to do a little shopping :).

I actually ended up wearing a trench coat over this outfit the whole time because it turned out to be quite chilly that day. That’s the thing about holidays, I always plan my outfits well in advance, and when I checked the forecast, it was supposed to be around 18°C. Instead, it was windy and much cooler than expected.

I was so glad I packed my trench coat instead of the leather jacket I had originally planned to bring. So, my tip number one is to always pack at least one warm piece of clothing for those unpredictable weather changes or cool evenings.

We took these photos at Fontana di Trevi, and I was so surprised by how many people were there. The place was absolutely packed, so we decided to come back the next morning. It’s hard to imagine what it must be like during the high season.

I still remember when we visited Mykonos after the season ended, and it turned out to be one of my favourite trips ever. Every street was empty, calm, and peaceful. We could enjoy every moment without rushing or bumping into crowds.

Traveling to such popular destinations can be tricky for that reason. I really dislike crowded places, and when I find myself in one, I immediately want to escape. That’s why one of my favourite areas in Rome was Trastevere. It’s on the other side of the river, filled with charming cafés and restaurants, and most importantly, it isn’t overcrowded like the Colosseum area.

I think this part of Rome was my favourite, and I’ll write a whole separate post about it soon because it’s truly a must-see when visiting the city.

Wishing you a lovely weekend and see you next time!
