A Couple of Hours Window Shopping in Florence

25 June 2015 By: Marlenecomment

Shopping must be an essential part of travelling and certainly a luxury for one who can expend a huge amount of money. But shopping while on travel must not necessarily mean spending for signature brands and expensive things. I am not an extravagant shopper myself but I enjoy spoiling my eyes with window shopping at some pricey shops from time to time. While we were in Florence I could not help myself but stopped and looked through every shop we’d pass by. It was my most splendid window shopping by far. Here’s why.

Tiffany & Co in Florence

I thought I would only get to see Tiffany & Co. in New York but I was amazed to see one in Florence. This is enough to remind me of the film, “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” and like Audrey Hepburn in the film, I amused myself by window shopping at the store. Not in the morning though. This kind of a shop is absolutely way out of my budget.

This is how the shop looks.  And on the left is also a popular brand for women. But I guess it’s too pricey, too. Some other time, Burberry.

Giorgio Armani Florence

My husband doesn’t fall into the category for luxurious shoppers either but he can spend much on other things. Perhaps a Giorgio Armani tie would have sufficed his style. We might look inside next time.

More shopping - Florence

More shops! We were lucky to have come at around 06:30 p.m. that day so the crowd must have gone somewhere else. It was almost closing hour, too.

Shopping street - Florence

We came to this street without knowing that it’s a shopping street or one of the shopping streets of Florence. The taxi driver we hired dropped us at a place where we could just take a walk to the great Florence Cathedral but it was a very nice and clean street so we dawdled until we got tired and realized we needed to sit in a café or restaurant. We spent the next day to see the Cathedral and a little shopping, but not on this street.
