Nice to meet you, Agata!
Yes, I have decided to introduce myself to you with the formula we all use when we meet a person for the first time in our lives.
This is my first article... I'm not a blogger or an influencer.
I'm just lucky enough to love my job and so I decided to open this blog, putting my shyness aside.
My name is Agata Liberatore and I am the owner of Gardeniastore.it as well as the Gardenia shop located in Abruzzo. I have been managing the shop since 1997 and in 2018 I started my "online" adventure.
It hasn't been easy going through the difficult times we've all known.
But with the recklessness of those who love their work, with the continuous search for new brands and with the passion for the world of shoes, bags and accessories, I managed to keep my shop open.
In 2018 I said to myself: "It's time to go online!". This is how Gardeniastore.it was born.
In 2020, in the first days of the lockdown due to the pandemic, with the shop having just closed, my site was destroyed.
Two years of work swept away in a millisecond. I wasn't discouraged and started over again.
But let's get back to the blog!
Today I would like to start a journey with you.
A journey into the world of shoes , bags and accessories , to discover their history and some curiosities without leaving out some advice for keeping the shoes and bags in your wardrobe "in shape".
With this blog I will also try to let you discover the news of my selections, brands and collections with the aim of advising you and also surprising you.
The all-Italian artisanal touch, the emerging foreign brands and the creativity of young designers, these are the criteria with which I personally choose the shoes, bags and accessories.
There are many brands that you can find in my store.
From the bags by Coccinelle, Gab's, Patrizia Pepe, Liviana Conti , Manila Grace , Gianni Chiarini and Nalì to the shoes by Fruit , Carmens , Cheville , Voile Blanche , Pedro Garcia , Corvari and many others without forgetting the accessories by Inoui Editions , Pyaar and the inimitable Secrid wallets.
Thank you for the time you dedicated to reading this "debut" of mine!
I'll meet you for my next article in which I will talk to you about a "must have" shoe for this part of the season... the sneaker!
See you soon!!
