I'd give this store a million stars if I could.

No, I am not a fashionista -- you can tell from a mile away that I am exactly the opposite. I saw a pair of boots by chance in a boutique in Paris, which unfortunately did not have my size. I did some search online and came across 10 Corso Como.

Just when I was planning a visit, I got mugged...

Marianna from the store later emailed, saying that my size is available and invited me to try. So I figured I'd try the shoes on and perhaps buy them later (online) after I got home. Marianna went above and beyond to help me out. After a few rounds of phone calls, the shoes are mine ;-)

I thought I'd be judged by my appearance -- I had done some hiking and mountaineering in the Alps earlier on and walked into the shop with my gears fully loaded (shopping wasn't part of the plan). But no, Marianna made sure I felt welcome and comfortable. And that alone sets her and the store apart from others (you know what I mean ;-).

I hope to explore the rest of the collection during my next visit. Hope you will enjoy your visit as well!
