Zurich (from November 13, 2006)

Zurich shopping highlights include the Swiss made Fogal stockings. They are very high quality, very sheer (9 dernier), and feel very nice. I bought two pairs in each black, coffee and grey, and one patterned pair- I am wearing now. The other great item was a pair of Causse gloves from Paris. Now, this name may not mean much to you, but they make all gloves for Hermes and Chanel and the quality and especially their smell are the absolute best. I found them in a very charming store that sold mainly high-end shoes, called Charivari. As they had them, and I can never have enough of them, I also bought two Diptyque scented candles, in the “Cuir” (leather) scent. Diagonally across the street, is one of the best restaurants according to locals, Bü’ss. Their tasting menu paired with wines was very creative and recommendable.
