An intimate women's escape · Lake Garda, Italy · 2027
Prosecco & PradaLa Dolce Vita Escape
Four unforgettable days in Italy with international personal stylist Traci Jeske — for women over 50 ready for their next chapter. An intimate group, a host who's called Italy home for 30 years, and the trip you've been promising yourself.
This isn't a vacation.It's your reset.
If you've ever looked at Italy and thought "one day, that will be me" — this is your one day.
So many of us arrive in our fifties craving something we can't quite name. Deeper friendships. Real connection with women who just get it. The sense that life still holds big, beautiful chapters. Whether the house has gone quiet, you're starting over, or you're simply asking "what's next for me?" — this escape was made for you.
Unmistakably Italy
Cobblestone villages, flower-draped balconies, centuries-old castles, and food you'll dream about for a year.
An intimate circle
Just up to six women, all craving deeper connection and more out of this season of life.
La dolce vita, hosted
Not a coach tour. A personal escape, hosted by a stylist who's lived here for three decades.
Shopping, and so much more
A legendary designer-outlet day, plus wellness, rest, long Italian lunches, a private styling session, and a few surprises.
What your days hold
Four days on Lake Garda, with a tiny group of up to six women.
- Time to breathe — wellness, rest, and being pampered instead of being the one who does the caring-for
- A private boat tour on Lake Garda, discovering the lake and its villages from the water
- A visit to a beautiful Italian vineyard
- Long, slow Italian meals where real friendships are born
- A day at one of the biggest designer outlets in Europe — nearly every luxury name under one roof, with your 22% Italian VAT refunded on what you buy
- A complimentary 60-minute private Zoom styling session with Traci before your trip — one-on-one, so you arrive feeling ready
- Time to dream — space to talk about what you want your next chapter to look like
- …and a few more experiences kept as a surprise, because the best parts of Italy are the ones you never see coming
Prefer pure shopping? Traci also offers a 1:1 one- or two-day personal shopping experience in Milan.

You're allowed to receive.
So many of us were quietly taught two lies: that doing something just for ourselves is selfish — and that once we hit fifty, the best chapters are behind us. Neither is true. You can't pour from a cup no one ever refills. And fifty? For so many women, it's exactly where the best part finally begins.
