I love shopping in Florence 1.
October 1, 2009
Let’s walk together for shopping!
Part 1: from your B&B MR My Resort to San Lorenzo Market – Duomo square - Via Roma – Piazza Repubblica – Via degli Speziali – Via Calzaioli
You need just a couple of minutes walk from MR My Resort bed and breakfast to reach the San Lorenzo Market.
The Market, which is on your way to the Duomo, is famous for its stands of leather jackets, pashmina, leather bags and souvenirs (a small David, the Florentine decorated paper); prices are good, but always ask for a discount.
In the Duomo square you find a good shoes shop Bologna. Trendy boots, sneakers, italian shoes. Expensive but not too much.
After Bologna, you can see the Raspini multistore, at the corner with Via Roma. This place is one of the most favourite from young women and men loving Dolce&Gabbana, Prada, Cavalli, Paul Smith, Y’S… Shoes & clothes, man and woman.
But Raspini is not the only one: a few meters from its entrance you can see Luisa Via Roma : the most gorgeous shop window in the city.
Here you can find Kenzo, Chloé, Dior, John Richmond, Dsquared, Victor&Rolf, Jil Sander, and many others, as you can see from the website. Three floors, including the Coffee Shop. A real paradise for your credit card.
In the same street there are Gucci and Miu Miu
There are no good reasons to miss them.
Walking onto Piazza della Repubblica, you will see the multistore La Rinascente , an excellent place if you have no time and need to buy lingerie, jeans, clothes, make-up (Armani, Burberry, Diesel, DKNY, Ethic, K Kark Lagerfeld, Belstaff, Calvin Klein, etc.).
It is also an ideal place for presents in case you’re looking for something nice to use in the kitchen (top floor).
In addiction, don’t miss the Coffee shop on the roof top.
Right in front of its windows, there is the Hugo Boss store, recently renovated, and now not for man only (thanks God!).
This shop is at the corner with Via degli Speziali: take the left and in this small street you will find an interesting, very trendy shoes shop Calvani, expensive but the quality is excellent. Man and woman.
From this small street you can enter in Via de’ Calzaioli, where shops like Yamamay, Nannini, Coin are located…. TO BE CONTINUED I love shopping in Florence 2 !
