Saturday's PhotoHunting: Fashion

The "Via Condotti (Via dei Condotti) in Rome, Italy is a busy street lined with stores selling high fashion like Valentino, Armani, Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Prada, Dolce & Gabbanna, Cartier and Salvatore Ferragamo.     

But if you're like me and can't afford to actually buy something here on the Via Condotti, get a cup of gelato, have a seat on the Spanish Steps and give yourself a very special Audrey Hepburn/Gregory Peck Roman Holiday moment and enjoy being in Rome!  That, to me, is priceless . . .

  1. If I ever visit Rome, I'll definitely do what you did -- eschew the high fashion stores and soak up the atmosphere in a cool locale. ;b

    1. Hi YTSL, soaking is much more fun than spending all my cash. You will love it! And the gelato isn't too shabby either. :)

      Have a great weekend.

  2. Very Roman Holiday, Kathy! Coincidentally, just yesterday I went to the Palazzo Colonna gallery where they shot the final scene of Roman Holiday (the press conference where Audrey Hepburn's character realizes that Joe is a journalist!)

    1. Hi Sandra, ooooh how exciting. I loved that scene! It looked very elegant in the gallery and what a great ending for the movie. I would love to see it one day.

      Thanks so much for your comments. Have a great evening.

  3. I love Roman Holiday! What a great movie. I enjoy window shopping in Italy - even though I'm not a fashionista at all!
