You Better Shop Around

For my class, I have to select a theme of my interest for my blogs. I have chosen shopping since Italy has such a selection of streets and open markets to shop in. Thus far, I have enjoyed roaming the wonderful shopping areas that Rome as to offer.

This wonderful day in Rome, after class, a group of us went to the Via Della Condotti. Via Della Condotti is home to the most traditional Rome designers such as Giorgio Armani and Versace. Along this popular shopping street lies stores such as Tiffany&Co., Bvlgari, Prada, Gucci, Cartier Jewelers, Valentino, Fendi, Louis Vuitton, Puma, Foot Locker, H&M and many others. This famous strip of shopping hosts an array of stores. The experience was amazing and convenient with pizzaria's, cafe's and other eateries along Via Della Condotti.

The streets were extremely busy with shoppers and tourists walking down one of the "smartest shopping areas in the world." Via Della Condotti has a beautiful view of Piazza di Spagna. The Spanish steps aligns with the street of Via Della Condotti which forms a magnificent view. Many of the visitors of the Spanish steps miander down Via Della Condotti because of its neatly placed convenience.
