A Roman Holiday


I just came back from a weekend in Rome. And what can I say? Rome was fab! It's not too big of a city to be intimidating to a tourist. The people were friendly and helpful and considering how little we both knew Italian, patient too. I did a bit of shopping of course. Most of their shops were mercifully lined up in the main road which is the Via del Corso. The road ends with the famous and crowded Piazza di Spagna where the equally popular Spanish Steps is. As we were trekking around this area looking for a good place to eat, I spied a little shop with a lot of nice trinkets on it. And boy, the shop was like my candy store. It's filled wall to wall of accessories. I was particularly interested in their drop earrings as you can see in the pic. I like a lot of their stuff but alas, I possibly can't buy everything I like in the store. I admitted defeat and retreated and vowed to come back to another one of their locations - hopefully in London or at least an online store. I immediately googled Kelokura but sadly hit a deadend. I'm not even sure if this is their website - http://www.kelokuraweb.com/. I can't tell because the site doesn't work! If anyone knows more about this store, let me know.
