Here's my itinerary from my recent trip.

London
Day 1 - Natural History Museum/Jack the Ripper walking tour at night
Day 2 - British Museum/Covent Garden/Westminister Tour/Shopping at Regent-oxford-bond cstreets/Dinner at leicester square
Day 3 - Bicester village/Oxford day trip
Day 4 - Kensington Palace/Buckingham Palace/St paul's cathedral/Leadenhall Market/Tower bridge/london bridge
Day 5 - Tower of London/Westminister Abbey/Borough Market
Paris
Day 6 - Eurostar to Paris/Sacre coeur and surrounding area
day 7 - louvre/champ elysee/arc de triomphe/eiffel tower
day 8 - notre dame and surrounding area/pantheon/luxembourg palace/le marais
italy
day 9 - fly to pisa/Leaning tower and surrounding area/train to florence
day 10 - outlet mall shopping
day 11 - florence cathedral/bell tower/piazza del duomo/piazza della republica/piazza della signoria/fountain of neptune/loggia dei lanzi/piazzale michelangelo/basilica of santa croce/train to rome
day 12 - colosseum/roman forum/palatine hill/trevi fountain/corso street/church of st ignazio di lavola/pantheon/piazza navona
day 13 - outlet shopping at castel romano(don't bother with this place really)
day 14 - spanish steps/via dei condotti/piazza del popolo/vatican city

i have no comments for venice nor milan but i think if you're shopping in florence outlet mall then there's no need to shop in milan? Like that the days can be shortened to 1.

For Paris, personally find it boring(i'm not a museums person), so 2 days is enough. Pisa is just a 3hrs excursion from Florence so you can spend the rest of the day touring Florence itself. Some people also like to take day trips to Siena.

Finally, if you want to consider belgium and amsterdam, the logical route would be LOndon-Amsterdam-Belgium-Paris-MIlan-florence-Rome. Of cos, find out the rail ticket prices/air ticket prices first before deciding your route.

btw can i also ask, is there outlet shopping in paris? I know there is one La vallee village that has alot of longchamp. :D

is there longchamp in florence outlet? because i will be going paris before florence so if there is no longchamp in florence then i will have to buy longchamp before i leave paris.

oh. thanks for sharing your itinerary! i will definitely take a look at it. Actually i am also not really into museums, just wanna to have sufficient day to soak into the atmosphere in Paris.

i might consider the Siena too. Yes, i will research more into the tickets prices before confirming the route.
