The Sales Tour

TIME FOR SALES... TIME TO GET IT! 

Pictures: my own and source. 

For some of us it means: "Go and get what you wanted!" and for some others: "horror...too many people everywhere"... That's why i'm writing this post, about a "SALES TOUR" I recommend in Geneva.. So if you don't want to walk around trying to find the good deals... read this post and go straight where you need to! 

I personally love the little stores in the Old Town, some of them so hidden that you don't even know they exist! Shopping in the Old Town is probably one of the most pleasant shopping tours you can make. I start my tour in Rita & Zia. You probably know their beautiful necklaces and other jewelry, but they also have clothes from American Vintage and Reiko, right now -50% in both brands! 

Still in Rue Grand Rue, we have the Zadig & Voltaire Stock. I think they probably have the greatest deals over there. Try the Must Have Tunisiens with skull, peace or butterfly prints.... Everything from -30 to -50% off. 

Right in front, Living Tradition offers you one of a kind design items at also pretty interesting prices. Drawings, carpets, furnitures, candles... Take advantage of the special prices and give your home a new look! Don't forget to visit their second boutique a few meters from there... 

Still in that area, you find Preziosa, they have a wide offer of Kartell lamps and chairs. Now is when you should invest in those colorful lamps you always wanted to have in your living room! 

Time to take a brake, go to Rozzel and get their homemade ice cream... If you are not one of those who would kill for an ice cream.. go to The Laughing Teapot and enjoy a tea time relaxing moment. 

Continue the tour toward la Clemence, you might bump into someone over there... always crowded and always waiting for a table to be free... good luck if it's sunny! Right there, you find Stuff, and yes, you might find some interesting stuff too... 

One of the destinations I totally recommend is Klima. If you are a lucky one you will find the Ash Sneakers almost half price! I felt for a Faith Connexion perfecto I was looking for... They still have a few ones left! 

What about the little ones? We also have clothes and accessories for the kids, and that's what I call A DEAL! They grow up fast, so you better take advantage of those -70% you will find in places such as Pied à Terre, store dedicated to shoes, bags and a few clothes too. 

While I head to the center, I stop by La Muse, a premium fashion destination! Women's designers clothes, shoes, bags and accessories. Fall in love with the Miranda Kerr's favorite shoes by Nicholas Kirkwood and find Tiffany Rowe necklaces! 

In Rue du Marché, mostly all the stores offer interesting discounts. Going in there depends on your mood...

¿Feeling like escaping from the center? then take Rue d'Italie and visit Sandro and Maje. There again, it's the best time of the year to buy those dresses and pants we wanted but could not afford their original price... 

What about lunch? I like going to Pain Quotidien in Boulevard Helvétique... Love their Hummus tartines and Mimosa Cocktail! 

Almost done for today.... but the last stop is probably one of my favorite fashion spot in town... EastSide! They opened a few months ago, and their collections inspired from the New York Soho style has made this concept store the new trendiest place in town! We all love their Scotch & Soda and Surperdry selection, and what about their skulls ballerinas?? -30% in almost everything! Also, discover their new Twenty Violets Beach Bags while you enjoy their  "already popular in town" syrups and homemade cookies..
