A NIGHT IN PIETRASANTA

When you spend a week in Tuscany you need to pay a visit to Botero's new hometown. The south american painter celebrated last Summer his 80th birthday at a breathtaking collector's villa on the hills, attracting the entire world's attention to this precious kept secret small area. Cozy like Capri and cool like St Tropez, Marina di Pietrasanta's most famous restaurant is ENOTECA MARCUCCI, and the fashion store is ZOE, which just opened the man department opposite the Hotel. Handmade shoes with brocade fabrics, bohemian printed kaftans in fluffy linens and selected furs mixed with bespoke rings and bracelets, definitively are not to be missed as the mix and selection are more than original. Monica , the owner, is so attractive and kind, she always wants to personally take care of her clients, but how many you can serve at the time? (as the store is constantly packed) ! The paved streets frame beautiful Churches, crypts and local craft stores selling bespoke zoccoli, folkloristic costumes, provencal home furnishing and incredible vintage Déco jewelry. When you walk around you feel like you are acting in a movie from the 20th Century...
