I’m Aleksandra! In January 2023 I made a life long dream come true and moved from Manhattan to Florence, Italy. Since moving here I’ve learnt a lot about the Art of Slowing down and how to apply it to my life and work.

“L’Arte Di Rallentare” means taking a breath and reminding myself of the moment I’m living in, the beauty I’m surrounded by and practicing gratitude for all the amazing people in my life and experiences that I’ve had, am having and will have.

With L’Arte di Rallentare, I hope to inspire you in all the little ways that you can slow down in your own life and feel more in touch with yourself, your style, your people and life itself.

I love to share how I embrace slow and ethical fashion, and how living your life according to a clear set of values can be so enriching! Let me share tips for slow travel and how to embrace a slower lifestyle. And more specifically how to embrace these ideas if you’re an expat transitioning to life in Italy!

My mission is to learn how to slow down, live calmly and be present. So join me on this journey, and let’s learn and grow together!
