A city trip to Naples: Small “Botteghe” in the midst of lavish sights
Sunshine, seaside and pizza-these things come to mind when thinking about the southern Italian city Naples. However, this is not all this city, located on the coast of the Tyrrhenian Sea has to offer-it also boasts lots of traditional fashion and design labels, which are well worth the visit.

Wien kompakt
Wenn man nur für ein verlängertes Wochenende oder einen Tagestrip nach Wien kommt, ist es auf jeden Fall lohnenswert eine Free Tour mitzumachen. Sie ist natürlich nicht ganz umsonst, jedoch ist es jedem selber überlassen, wie viel man am Ende dafür zahlen möchte. Ein Beitrag von: Tabea-Marie Widmann
Just because it’s the place everyone goes, doesn’t mean it’s the best
More often than not, locals will avoid the places tourists hang around in. The same thing can be said for all the popular shopping streets. In Vienna the best example for this is Kärntner Straße, where shopping is allegedly “ever so wonderful”. Rookie mistake, my dears! You won’t find any quaint, cool shops, but rather the big players like Zara and Co on this road. Now that Mariahilfer Straße has also become very popular among foreign tourists, you will have to switch to smaller streets, such as the one I would like to introduce you to today.

¡Hola a todos!
Who knew that Madrid, besides being the Spanish capital, was the cultural capital of Europe in 1992-a fun fact many of you probably weren’t aware of, although this comes as no surprise when looking at the magnificent cultural attractions this city has to offer. On top of that Madrid has a reputation for being a student’s city, as well as being a city for footballers thanks to Atlético and Real Madrid. In addition, it represents a trading and finance center for Spain. As you can see this city is so multifaceted and different making it quite hard to discover everything about it in just a few days. However I do hope that these FashionTouri-Highlights will make your stay more memorable and ensure that you can see as much as possible. Written by Tabea-Marie Widmann
