When shopping in Rome, don't miss the Via Dei Condotti. On this street you will find the shops of Jimmy Choo, Louis Vuiton, Bulgari, Ferragamo, Prada and many more. Some of these stores only allow a few customers in at a time and several of them had lines of people waiting to get in to shop.
Some of my favorite window displays were those of the pastry, candy, and gelato shops. Yes, they taste as good as they look!
There were so many stores selling masks for carnival (Mardi Gras)as well as those selling and renting costumes. Jewelry stores were in abundance also with their window displays a sparkling delight. Personally, I enjoyed a little shop that we found on a back street that sold vintage hardware and lighting. Unfortunately, it was closed or I would have purchased one of those old water closet pulls that you see in the upper left.

How fun! I remember window shopping in Italy many years ago. I was especially impressed with all the pastry shops - everything lined up just so and so scrumptious looking!

Kinda like Rodeo Drive in Los Angeles, but with much more character! Those masks are so luscious.
Well I love to shop and then to combine it with Italy would be out of this world exciting! When I read names like Louis Vuton and Prada all I think about are Purses!!! I would be in heaven.
