We took more than 700 photos at Venezia on this trip, and every time I sieve out my favorites for travelogues, I can easily spend up to an hour just looking through every single one, and reminiscing the good times we had. Photos are indeed the best souvenirs, and especially so for somewhere so magically magnificent like Venezia.

For some time now, I have been toying with the idea of returning to Venezia, not just for holidays, but to have our wedding photos taken. Many have asked me about my proposal story, and while it is no over-the-top fancy, I am still reserved about being so publicized and open. Maybe, if we really do get to have our wedding photos taken there, we might re-enact the story - this time, of me in an ethereal white gown and B looking all suave in his suit.

Anyway, this is among my favorite ensembles throughout my stay at Italia. The skirt is too flattering and sexy, and it really got me lots of attention from passers-by! The jumper was a fab find on ASOS (I think it was under S$30?), keeping me warm on both days I wore it (an outfit post from Roma to come out soon!). And what did I say about my invincible thigh-high leather boots? I could walk in those all day and have it spice up any ensemble.

It is tough to not repeat my clothes though, and as much as I hate it, some pieces have to be seen more than once. I totally have no clue how SongOfStyle can lug sooooo many pairs of heels just for one week of Fashion Week. Neither do I know where my favorite GaryPepperGirl gets all the luggage allowance to stuff three times my wardrobe for a month-long Europe trip. As you can tell, the man is really easy with his basics. So I took up most of our luggage spaces - and I still had to wash my staples and re-wear them in different styles.

The next time I pack my bags for Europe, I swear it has to be Spring or Autumn. I love my trench and boots but lugging them around and packing with limited luggage space sure ain't fun.
