Florence City Guide: Shop, Play, Taste
Posted in: Uncategorized  | In Paris, you learn wit, in London you learn to crush your social rivals, and in Florence you learn poise. -Virgil Thomson What to buy: Fall in love with jewelry from Pointe Vecchio, a bridge famous for its architecture and hanging shops. There are a variety of different styles and a reasonable range of prices. Bellini is a charming jewelry shop named after my favorite cocktail (a bellini consists of Italian Prosecco wine and peach juice). Here you will find statement pieces made out of silver and gold. Dainty Florentine Fleur-de-Lis earrings are an ideal gift. A little luxury goes a long way. Florence is the leather capital of Italy. Great deals on leather goods can be found everywhere. Walk around a couple shops and browse through prices before making a purchase. Click over to HauteMimi for more on what to see, where to eat, and what to buy when in Florence! |
