The best part about shopping in Rome is that all the nice stores are in and around Via Veneto. As I previously mentioned in another page, I'm a shoes and bags freak (no, I'm not related to Imelda Marcos, but I am filipina ;-). I'm always in and out of every store that has shoes and bags in the display window and I'm always hunting for quality leather goods with or without the name brands.
Among the more reasonably priced Italian brands are Francesco Biasia and Furla...both are fun and trendy and very well made.
What to buy: shoes, bags, more shoes, more bags...hehehe
What to pay: At least $100 for a handbag...Max Mara, at least $250

What to pay: If you are not European you can get a tax refund on many of your purchases in Europe. We got a stamp at customs and then let premier tax free do all the rest for us!

Shopaholics beware. There're just so many shops around major tourist attractions. Famous Italian and international brands line the streets.

... for shoes!
But as I don't have the Italian standard size (I guess 41 is much to large for female Italian feet) I have saved lots of money.
Many shoe shops were along the Via Nazionale
