Travel in Style: My Gold Peasant Top and Straw Bag in Italy

Hi friends! I’m excited to share one of my favorite outfits, my gold peasant top that I wore in Italy that was perfect for the occasion. The first place we visited was the charming beach town of Roseto degli Abruzzi. You can read all about it in my recent blog post here.

The weather in Italy was perfect, and one day I chose to wear my beloved gold peasant top from Old Navy. I’ve had this top for a few years, and it’s a staple in my wardrobe.

It’s lightweight, has a cute V-neck with a tie, and the slightly puffy sleeves with elastic at the wrist can be adjusted easily. I wish they made this in more colors! If you’re interested, I found a similar one on Poshmark in size large here.

Pairing this peasant top with my favorite white cropped jeans from J.Crew with a raw edge made me feel like I was on vacation, even if I wasn’t! These jeans are versatile and perfect for any casual outing.

Accessorizing for Comfort and Style

To complete the look, I brought along my trusty jean jacket for cooler evenings. It’s the perfect layer for exploring Italy at night.

For shoes, I wore my favorite water shoes. These are supportive, comfortable, and stylish with pink braiding. I’ve had them since 2019, and they’re only $32! You can find them here.

My New Favorite Bag

My newest addition is a natural and blue striped straw bag from Target. It’s only $20, and you can purchase it here. This bucket bag was a lifesaver because I left my mini backpack on the plane with all my cash and credit cards.

Without this straw bag, I would have been in trouble! It’s beachy, stylish, and practical. It also comes in solid black, green, natural, and a fun pink and orange stripe.

Finishing Touches

I picked up blue sunglasses while in Italy because I left my other ones in the mini backpack. They are super fun to wear and add a pop of color. The natural woven earrings are some of my favorites, and I am starting to sell them for $8.00 plus shipping. Leave me a comment if you’d like a pair!

I hope you enjoyed this post and found some inspiration for a fun, casual look for traveling this summer or just staying home. Cheers to more stylish adventures!
