Poking out from under her dress’ ruffled hem were a pair of classic black high heels.

Caylee’s honey toned tresses were swept to one side and styled in voluminous curls.

Her pout was painted a fiery red shade and she sported a sexy cateye flick.

Though she posed confidently for a number of solo shots, Caylee looked her happiest while cozying up to Casey for the cameras.

Caylee looked gorgeous in a white mini dress  featuring a low-cut neckline.

She accessorized with silver dangling earrings along with a matching Dolce & Gabbana sacred heart shoulder bag.

No doubt she was enjoying the sights of the Italian city built in a lagoon in the Adriatic Sea as she had a vintage Canon film camera strapped to her neck.

In January, Affleck and Cowan celebrated a year since the day they met by sharing heartfelt tributes to each other on their Instagram accounts.

‘Lovers don’t finally meet somewhere, they’re in each other all along,’ Cowan began her post with a quotation from the 13th-century Persian poet Rumi.

‘Today, January 26th, is the day we first met. The universe conspired to bring us together when we each needed the other most,’ she continued.

‘Caleb Casey Affleck, you are the other half of my heart. You are such a wonderful and loving boyfriend,’ the actress wrote. ‘You are a genius who beats everyone at chess (except your youngest son).

Affleck previously made his relationship with Cowan Instagram official in November 2021 with a chaste — and since deleted — post calling her his ‘love.’

He praised her for joining him and members of his baseball team in donating blood, even though she’s ‘usually unenthused about needles, blood, etc.’

The post confirmed a split from his previous girlfriend, actress Foriana Lima, 40, though neither party announced the breakup.
