About the day it snowed in Firenze
9:00 AM
We have rarely seen snow in Valencia. Ever. As it's a southern coastal city, temperatures are usually pretty warm and not below 7-8ºC even in Winter. The closest thing to snow you can experience there is a hailstorm with a thin layer of frost in the streets if cold enough. So, snow is a weird phenomenon for me, and although I've been warned that so it is in Firenze (where it hasn't snowed for about 5 or 6 years since the last time), we decided it was a nice moment in the Erasmus experience to go out, shoot some cool pictures surrounded by white and enjoy the day off university as all campuses and schools in Tuscany were closed due to the weather conditions. Seeing the whole city covered in snow was a nice surprise and I felt very lucky to experience it, although it finally turned into a very annoying rain.
As the day was a bit grey-colored, I decided to add some spice to it matching this Shein mustard open-shoulder sweater and this little leather yellow bag I bought here. I must confess it's not the ideal top to wear when it's -1ºC outside, as it's open-shoulder and the fabric is soft but not warm enough. So, I put on a basic long sleeve T-shirt underneath and a wool vest on top to survive. Thanks we ended near Galleria degli Uffizi and its marvelous arched covered space, otherwise, I'd have frozen to death. However, I'm sure I'll be wearing this top over and over again when I'm back in Spain with warmer temperatures, as it's quite versatile and I'm pretty sure it will look good paired with jeans and flat shoes for a regular university day. For this snowy day in Firenze, I chose to wear my rain ankle booties and the Fedora hat because, as you can see, once the snow stopped, our heads were suddenly wet due to an intermittent rainstorm. Yes, Firenze is beautiful equally covered in snow or not but, I think I might spend the next days rolled in my blanket and sipping over a hot cocoa before stepping out of home again!
