cheap, and handmade things you can find them in racks of stalls in the Le
Mercerie area, Venice. Specifically for bead souvenirs, you can buy or even
make in Via Sora, Milan. The souvenirs can the perfect gifts also for your
family at home if you want so.
Remember also that Italy is the home
of fashion. Many international fashion brands come from Italy. If you like to
shop for the fine and authentic garments from Gucci, Prada, Dolce &
Gabbana, just go straight to Via Monte Napoleone in Milan. Another way to rock
Italian style is by wearing leather. Yes, leather is another thing Italy good
at. Via Giovan Battista Zannoni in Florence is the best to buy leather clothes
and accessories which you can pair up with your partner.
