I’m back from Italy, I had such a fun time in Venice and I also spend one day with shopping. It was my first experience in Italian outlets, I just couldn't wait! Before I left Budapest, I checked my wardrobe and I prepared a list of stuff I really need for fall - winter season. I prefer classy, timeless pieces, that I are versatile and I’m able to wear it with many different things I already own. Invest in pieces you can use for many years!  Let me share with you my experiences in these two  fabulous outlets in Italy.

Palmanova Outlet - the chic shopping village

It’s a relatively small outlet close to Trieste, since it was on my way to Venice, I dropped by for about 2 hours. The place is stylish with Italian touch and has a pleasant atmosphere. It does not feature big brands like Gucci or Prada, it’s mainly focused on more affordable Italian and international brands like Tommy Hilfiger, Guess, Adidas, Benetton, GAP, just naming a few. You can check the full list of shops HERE. I love Italian style, that’s so effortless and chic, I got inspired by the place, pure joy!

There are coffees and small restaurants, where you can grab a drink or a slice of pizza if you need some energy. Two hours were enough to look around, try things on and have a drink. The place might be not bigger than a normal shopping center, but since it looks like a pretty village, it’s more pleasant to walk and shop here.

I’m showing you my favorite item I bought in Palmanova: it’s a pair of brown Blumarine sunglasses with delicate golden details. Classy, elegant and perfect for my face shape. I basically wear sunglasses all year round, these are like touch of luxury to me and a brown pair goes perfectly with the rusty and nude autumn basics that are so trendy nowadays. Since I did not have a pair in this shade, it was definitely on my list and I was glad to find it. You can shop here great quality on a reasonable price.

Noventa di Piave Designer Outlet
- Heaven for shopaholics

This designer outlet is close to Venice, its an elegant, luxurious and well-organized village with beautiful fountains, lots of flowers and pretty buildings around, worth a whole day visit since it’s enormous. You will find all shapes, colors and sizes here, latest trends, beautiful designer pieces. The place can be crowded during weekends, try to go on Thursday if you can or Friday morning can be fine as well.

I’m so much into Italian brands, I love high - quality leather, shoes and bags, but who doesn’t? One of my favorite brands is Furla with its chic, timeless design. I was astonished by the huge variety of bags in the outlet, I couldn’t resist this beautiful piece, that will occupy a special place in my wardrobe. Simple, elegant, sophisticated! This is my dream bag for fall.

Shopping with friends in Italy was so much fun, we will surely be back one day! They have great sales before Christmas. You can also combine shopping with a short Venice visit, pure bliss!
