I was gifted with a pair of beautiful comfy Italian shoes while on a trip to portofino. The staff was very friendly even though I don't speak Italian and it was very cool being in an Italian shoe store!!! read more

This little shop caught my eye and it reminded me a bit of some of the cute boutiques that I would…read morefrequent in North America. They had some nice Italian made items but the suede bag was around 275 euros (around $310 us dollars, tax included) and the clothes were unfortunately made for Italian women meaning not as "Americanly" sized. While there were still things I could wear, nothing really caught my fancy (that fit!) until I tried the Italian leather heel platform clogs. The clogs were unique and beautiful, and since I learned that's all I could wear for heels on these cobbly, uneven streets I just had to buy a pair. The earrings had an artisanal quality that were slightly unique so I had to buy a pair of those, too. The entire purchase was around 100 euros or $110 US dollars which seemed a bit pricey considering these type of shoes would be on a better sale in the US this time of year. But would I find the same Italian quality at home? I think not. Unfortunately for me, as soon as I left the shop I realized how much the clogs hurt the balls of my feet. I wanted to return them but since it wasn't exactly Nordstrom I decided to suck it up and wear them. The sales lady was really kind, and I knew they had a shop in Milan, the one major Italian city I purposely avoided since time is of the essence. In the end, the shop didn't have too much to offer for me, but I was happy that I found such a cute boutique right by my hotel, and I hope that I can enjoy my purchases for years to come!
