I was excited to stumble upon this H&M in one of the many open piazzas in Venice, following a…read morestroll through a narrow corridor or street. The store was bustling on the weekend but the lines weren't too long (perhaps 4-5 customers waiting). The clothing appeared similar in quality to that of H&M stores in the US, as were the price points -- which I assume was a huge attraction since the exchange rate is so high. I didn't get the chance to peruse for too long, but noted that the items were the same as in the States (see the website). Therefore, I didn't feel the need to buy anything. This location isn't too large, as the aisles were pretty narrow. Good place to pick up some pieces though particularly if you forgot to pack something.

This was my first time visiting a Burberry store. I will say I was intimidated because I have…read moreheard stories that people would get shunned away because of how they are dressed or looked. This is not my first rodeo in an upscale store so I have no idea why I was intimidated. The staff was somewhat attentive and decent to work with. I walked away with a classic Burberry print scarf and I love it. I was offered drinks as I was completing my purchase.

I will start with saying that the luxury stores in Venice are located away from the hustle and…read morebustle and really not where you'd think they'd be. When I entered Burberry I was greeted by a very nice SA who was extremely helpful and patient. I knew what I was seeking and she not only located my item but she showed me other options and suggested that that I also try on my item with a thinner shirt just to see the difference, which she provided. I was quite impressed that she was able to tell me my size just by looking at me, glad she didn't guess larger lol. I was able to purchase my item and she explained that if I paid with visa or MasterCard my VAT is automatically applied, which was the first time I've been told that in all of my travels. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is due to other staff members banter. My card was declined initially and not due to no funds but my credit card automatically assumed fraud...since this is not my first rodeo I knew what to do but I didn't appreciate the other associates standing around watching and speaking about me. The SA was patient and unbothered which is why she still got the sale but my advice Burberry associates please don't make assumptions, typically those traveling from the States have the money and are well prepared to spend it due to the massive savings by not getting the luxury item in the states P.S The store policy doesn't allow you to use an outlet to charge your phone, so make sure you're completely charged :)

The tights at Goldenpoint is quite possibly the only "good deal" to be had in Venice. I bought 5…read moredifferent pairs of tights all for under 12 USD a pair. The quality is so much better than the tights I have found at department stores in the states. I would liken the quality to Wolford, which costs upwards of 40 USD a pair! I wish I had purchased a dozen more pairs while I was here. The ladies working in this store were very friendly, spoke enough English to get through the transaction with ease and have a short chat about my hair and my cat. Unfortunately, it is unlikely I'll be going back to this specific Goldenpoint anytime soon, but I'm a customer for life and will definitely be purchasing tights off of their website!

Love the selection of quality garments. The gang at Zegna…read morewas great! Ask for Bruno Lazzari.

We first discovered MDF on a trip to Venice in 2014. Michele had just opened his store and he…read moreshared with us his vision of Italian artisanship and bringing back meaning to the "Made in Italy" designation. I purchased one of his prototype purses (there were no logos then) and a belt, which are two of my favorite accessories. Fast forward 3 years and we visited the store again. Same beautiful styles and unique designs, with a little more "edge." I ended up purchasing one of the original purse styles (Borsa No. 1) in a different color, but all the items I previewed were gorgeous. If you want Italian craftsmanship with superior design and quality, look no further than Michele de Fina - Venezia. You will not be disappointed.

I love, love, love my purse from Michele De Fina and everyone, here in the States, always comments…read moreon it! Looks as good as it did in 2015 when I bought it. I usually browse the internet site and will definitely get another one soon! Can't get these in the US!!
