In Italy to Shop!

Ever wondered how every Italian seems to own a stash of fine merino wool Prada knitwear, a Ferragamo bag and a whole host of designer footwear and eyewear? How do they afford it?

What you lack, but what every style-conscious Italian knows, is exactly when and where to shop for bargains. Time your trip right and pick up designer fashion for a snip of the usual price at the annual sales (saldi) in January and July. Discounts start at 30% and increase to 50% as the sale goes on, but get there early if you dont want to be left with the oversized, ill-fitting, odd-coloured items that have been rejected by the rest of the shopping fraternity. At other times of the year score at the big city flea markets or head for the discount outlets in Lombardy and Piedmont.

Why Go?

Laden with grand-slam sights and experiences, Tuscany (Toscana in Italian) offers the perfect introduction to Italys famed dolce vita . Despite incessant praise, its beauty and charm defy description. It has extraordinary art and architecture; vibrant festivals; a seasonal cuisine emulated the world over; and never-ending, picture-perfect landscapes of olive groves, vineyards and poplars. There are few places in the world where food, fashion, art and nature intermingle so effortlessly and to such magnificent effect.

Then there is that over-abundance of things to do and see: visit a World Heritage Site in the morning, drive through a national park in the afternoon and bunk down in stylish vineyard accommodation at night. Medieval sculptures, Renaissance paintings and Gothic cathedrals? Check. Spectacular trekking and sensational Slow Food? Yep. Hills laden with vines, ancient olive groveswhat more could one possibly desire?
