Apologies in not updating our blog sooner. We had a few technical glitches: no internet the past two days at the hotel!!! Well, we are now up and running (we actually had to change hotels).
We spent Saturday afternoon at some of our favorite shops in madrid: The DELI ROOM and FRANKA. For the past few years, the DELI ROOM has made a name for itself by showcasing hot young Spanish designers like Miriam Ocariz, Ailanto, Jocomomola, Josep Font and much more. We scored a fun tshirt by Miriam Ocariz and managed to resist temptation or we would have bought two. Upsetting as it is the dollar won't buy squat and the price of clothing is only rising in Madrid. The tshirt was 64 euros...the second one was lovely but at 106.00 it was bit steep for us.
Plus we wanted to save room for FRANKA where we found a faux snakeskin zip up jacket with short sleeves. FRANKA carries labels from Argentina. Super cute stuff that doesn't cost and arm and a leg. The cropped jacket from DELACRUZ was well worth the 96 euros and I'm hoping we can contact the label so that we can carry the label at Lola y Maria!!!!!! If anyone out there knows how to get in touch with them please let us know!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sunday shops are closed in Spain, except for FNAC and the outdoor flea market called the RASTRO...hoards of people go to the RASTRO on Sunday mornings where you can find antiques, records, clothing and other random items. We did find a cute stand with some tshirts.
