Located six minutes from the Spanish Steps lies a hidden fashion gem Gucci frequents anytime she's in Rome. Schostal Roma is an iconic family-run shop, specializing for over 150 years in premium shirting and timeless accessories.

Though unassuming at first glance, as textile wares stack the shelves like a mini warehouse, Schostal is world-renowned and a favorite for fashion insiders. "I call this shop my stylish Pandora’s box because whenever you think you'll just spend twenty minutes, it ends up being an hour!" she laughs. "The staff is so knowledgeable and the quality of their products is impeccable, so there's always something new to discover."

On her latest trip, Gucci stocked up on gifts for the whole family and a few treats for herself, including luxurious pink pajamas and a neckscarf or two to accessorize her outfits. "Everything you're looking for is there from knitwear to the the softest socks, and the store also has the best monogramming services," Gucci notes, reflecting on how she recently customized her own PJ set." I can't wait to go back!"
