What I actually wore in Italy.
Even though I over thought over packed, here are the things I actually wore in the 2 weeks and a few things I didn’t wear and should have left at home.
Things I should have left home: I did not need heels. I really only needed one pair of flip flops and one pair of flat sandals ( I brought 7 pairs of flat sandals, tennis shoes and pair of heels) It ended up being extremely hot and humid our entire trip so the 3 pairs of jeans I packed could have stayed home too!
Most loved and worn items on trip were: my denim jacket, scarves, white wide leg pants, white skirt and black tanks. I bought my first pair of Golden Goose sneakers the 1st day of trip in Venice and basically wore them everyday. One thing I wish I had packed more of were a few more pairs of no show socks!
