4 days in London (LHR), 2 days in Paris (Eurostar from London), 2 days in Venice (Thello sleepy from Paris), 2 days in Florence (train from Venice), 4 days in Rome (Train from Florence), and 1-2 days in Milan(train from Rome) (fly home MXP to LAX).
I'm sure it will be great. Looks like about the right mix of days in each city (I would have also recommended a Champagne tour out of Paris, but there's not even enough time for Versailles). The Louvre is an all-day event. Make sure you get your Eiffel Tower tickets as possible by booking online.
Florence is one of my favorite cities.
If you've got a chance (probably won't) in Venice, take a tour of the Murano glass factories. Or just ride the boat over there and walk around the island.
When you go from Florence to Rome (or Rome to Milan), consider stopping in Pisa. It's a sleepy city and we didn't have much of a wait to see the Tower of Pisa. If you can leave your luggage in the train station, do that. Then just take a taxi to the Tower of Pisa. It should only add a couple of hours to your trip.
There is SO much to see in Rome that
