Rome 2012 – Spring Fashion!
Day 1 in
Rome: Pizza, sightseeing, souvenirs by
the Trevi Fountain, seeing the Colloseum from the outside and dinner by the
Pantheon. How many people can say they’ve
done that in one day?
My first
experience with fashion in Rome was spotting a pair of Stefanel
pink suede boots from the sidewalk
window. I was in love. I went inside to try them on but the pair she
brought out in my size was a hotter pink and even I couldn’t get away with that
much pink!
That night,
we walked by some shops by the Pantheon and glowing at me were some solid leather bags, belts, wallets and scarves. 
On Day 2, some handsomely-crafted leather gloves stared back at
me from a window display and more leather bags with
awesome rosettes appeared!
Day 3 – we went
to the Colosseum, this time inside.
After discovering the ancient ruins from above (unfortunately you couldn’t
go down into the pits), we saw this cool metal replica
in the form of a ring.
Afterwards,
we went to Palatino, which is another ancient ruin site. Inside one of the buildings, I was inspired
by the colors in this painting from over 1000 years ago!

Most of these were located near the Spanish Steps.
We also saw
some cool, sophisticated men’s fashion with this little
shirt display. Each one was a small replica of what the full-sized shirt would look like.
A few objets
d’Art caught my eye one night in passing this shop!
Lastly, I
want to touch on the street wear.
First,
by the Trevi Fountain, people crowded to sneak a
photo and hang out.
Second, this shop had some
trendy clothing street wear through window.
Finally,
some outfits I could afford!
