La Fiorentina

Description

?Florentine fashion, style and cult places in Florence? is the first non-tourist guide to Florence, a detailed and elegantly illustrated itinerary among its coolest aspects. Author Martina Olivia Bondi is a Florentine doc who takes us to discover the characteristic traits of ?Florentinity,? its refined soul, traditional but also in step with the times. After various jobs in the creative field, she decided to bring together her experience as a blogger, her passion for fashion and good food that her parents handed down to her in this book.

Following her step by step, we discover who the quintessential Florentine is, what she likes, how she dresses for various occasions, how she decorates her home, how she celebrates the holidays, and much more. The book then becomes a journey through artisan workshops, historic stores and clothing stores. A space is also devoted to the most interesting bookstores and furniture stores. There is no shortage of florists and places to take children to shop and spend their free time, as well as four-legged friends, to whom a detailed section is devoted.

Art, culture, handicrafts, but also aesthetic care of the person. Special attention is given to dining with a few recipes to try. There is no shortage of advice on where to shop and, for those not from Florence, suggestions on the most exclusive hotels. Strictly unconventional museums and special places for special occasions, even out of doors. With photos and fine illustrations, this is a must-have book for those who want to know Florence from the inside and feel part of its atmosphere.
