I just returned from Rome and couldn't wait to unpack my treasures from Ruben. My friend and I had exactly 20 minutes to shop since we were traveling with a group and had to return on time. The two women there could not have been more helpful, kind, and swift in assisting us. Most of the items I purchased were discounted 50% from their winter stock. I purchased nine items that included a black suit with a peplum jacket, a dress I will wear to our daughter's wedding shower, two pair of leggings( a sleek, silky mauve/black watercolor print and a sturdy but soft embossed fabric in charcoal, wool trousers that were perfectly proportioned and a unique black sweater with sheer sleeves. Everything in the store was appealing - nothing tacky or cheap and offered exceptionally fine fabrics in each of the classic, tasteful and fashionable items. Wish I had had much more time and will definitely make a point to shop there on my next trip to Rome! read more
