Yes, yes, I haven't update the blog for a while... so what have I been up to lately? Well, I gotta tell you that the best time to visit Italy is NOW... if you are into shopping! All the stores offer discounts between 30 and 70%. Since this maybe the last sales while I'm in Italy, of course I'm seizing the opportunity to 'help the economy'. :)
One of the most difficult items to shop for is baby clothes for my unborn niece (another is shopping for my mom). It is hard because I'm looking particularly for clothes that 1) fits from 12 to 18 months old and 2) has Italian writings. As it turns out, Italians' preference is English writings on clothes and as for the on-sale season, only 3 - 6 months old clothes are available. (Sigh) My little niece has already given me trouble... just like her dad. :p
Tips:
2 on-sale periods occur in Italy. If your goal is to shop in Italy (and perhaps Europe), the best times to come is 1) mid June - end July: clothing are on-sale for people to buy to go on vacation and 2) mid Jan - end Feb: End-of-Season sale.
