Dreaming of an Italian escape? Set your sights on the gorgeous city of Florence - Architecture, art and fashion capital by day and enchanting Tuscan food and wine scene by night.

We’ve made a list of our favourite sights to see along with a style guide for each stop. So, where to first?

Market stalls flood the streets around the city, but it is the iconic Ponte Vecchio which is a must see. Take a walk over the Arno River, amongst the rush of footsteps and across the medieval stone bridge. Enjoy the surrounding scenery as you peruse the bridge’s historic boutiques filled with beautiful gold jewellery and antique items. (At night you’ll find it is a popular place for musicians to share mesmerising sounds.)

Our slim memo bottles make the perfect companion for a day of exploring. Stay hydrated with this bag and backpack friendly accessory.

A sunset aperitivo in Florence is a memory you will hold onto for life.

Pack a picnic with delicious Italian favourites (and vino of course) before you make your way to Piazzale Michelangelo – a prime spot for overlooking the city at night. Be prepared for a view you won’t forget, a small workout to get there and be sure to grab a seat before the crowds of tourists join you.

We think our Thea low leather boots will provide comfort and style for an evening of walking! Pair with our Cascade linen Jacket in slate, white, natural, or black to keep the chill off as you soak up the night lights.

Searching for an authentic foodie experience. I Fratellini is a definite bucket list item for panino lovers. This tiny hole-in-the-wall wine and sandwich shop lies in Florence’s historic centre and depicts the simplicity of Italian cuisine. Visit for a quick eat and curb side glass of wine and select from 29 different sandwiches all filled with locally sourced produce.

Our cowhide bags will fit in nicely amongst this city of traditional leather makers. Sling over your shoulder and leave some space to squeeze in a take-home panino. There’s no shame in enjoying I Fratellini’s gourmet creations twice in one day!
