I walked into a boutique at Via Dei Fossi, it was the type of boutique that you can’t help looking in the window when passing by, inside you see nothing you need immediately, yet you know that one day you’d step in. When it comes to boutique, I don’t know how many of them still exist today that are worthy of this euphonic name. For, nowadays, you see the same thing everywhere: same brands, similar designs, sometimes, to give a gloss to this embarrassment, shops come up with the idea of city limited, like those city limited cups launched by Starbucks, although what you drink is still of little after taste. 

That day, Julia was in a pale blue floral-printed dress, effortlessly chic. A few days later I saw her again in that dress, receiving compliments from a French tourist. I hardly doubt that she is never in short of compliments. Almost no one would leave the door without telling her how beautiful her boutique is or how wonderful she is. And she, as usual, respond with gratitudes. No one would really get tired of compliments, right? She told me she really likes the artistic ambient on Via Dei Fossi, the illustrious tailoring shop Liverano & Liverano is also on this street. As the result, she moved all the way from San Francisco to open a boutique here!
