While you are shopping in Rome a good break can be done in a SPA. One of my favourite is called ACQUA MADRE and it is the closest possible experience to the real one, where ancient romans used to go. In latin they called it Thermae. Acqua Madre has been restaured from a Medieval porch and a roman temple. It is located behind piazza Venezia, in via di Sant'Ambrogio, 17. There are hammam, massages and a boutique with different kind of beauty products such as Argan oil, black soap made with olive oil and home perfumes. A great experience.
Kristina Ti is finally in Rome
There is something new in Rome : The Kristina Ti flagship store. This wellknown fashion designer (her full name is Cristina Tardito and She shows in Milano for a long time) now opened a nice boutique in via Vittoria 16/A. It is a breath of fresh air in the roman world of fashion in the Eternal City. Roman girls are generally conservative and Kristina Ti can change their style and wake them up! . A good opportunity also for a different Christmas shopping. I will take my clients of grandtouirshopping asap.
A great reopening in Rome: The men store Carbotti Style
In Rome, in via Crispi 53, just in time for the Christmas season, the reopening of Carbotti. The store was established in 1920. At the beginnin they were selling fabrics. Now you can find italian great brands such as Aspesi but also different kind of shirts, men suits, plus the british Drake's scarves and ties (in the picture below). Last but not least the famous Cheaney shoes from the Northamptonshire. A great shopping opportunity near the Spanish steps.
