http://tupalo.com/madrid/tag/recoletos.rss Tupalo en-us http://tupalo.com/spot/2253-zadig-and-voltaire-madrid-spain c My love-hate relationship with fashion is perhaps best exemplified by this bastion of "French rebellious chic." The fabrics are always super soft (check the cashmere), the colors pretty (violets, pinks, turquoises), but the sizes are always super small and the designs questionable, unless skulls and crossbones set in rhinestones are your thing. shopping french chic recoletos 40.422492 -3.694174 Mon, 11 Aug 2008 03:46:08 +0200 http://tupalo.com/spot/2253-zadig-and-voltaire-madrid-spain http://tupalo.com/spot/2786-alfombras-bsb-madrid-spain c shopping recoletos design rugs salamanca 40.422483 -3.687218 Sat, 09 Feb 2008 18:46:19 +0100 http://tupalo.com/spot/2786-alfombras-bsb-madrid-spain http://tupalo.com/spot/2785-la-pajarita-madrid-spain c shopping recoletos pastries sweets salamanca 40.422572 -3.688445 Sat, 09 Feb 2008 18:44:23 +0100 http://tupalo.com/spot/2785-la-pajarita-madrid-spain http://tupalo.com/spot/2280-benny-room-madrid-spain c Very, very, very pretty clothes like Cacharel, Velvet, See by Chloe, and Eley Kishimoto sold by very, very, very stylish women.

I myself had to back track on the street as an exquisite printed dress caught my eye. It turned out to be by Tsumori Chisato, and it so happens that this is the only place in Madrid to get her stuff, because Mónica has got some sort of hook-up. And what shoes could go with Tsumori's fantastical creations than those of Mónica García's, which aim to make the ballet flats more popular and inject a little bit of feminine fun into them. Open until 20h30. shopping shoes unique style recoletos 40.423075 -3.694912 Tue, 06 Nov 2007 23:29:14 +0100 http://tupalo.com/spot/2254-las-bailarinas-madrid-spain
