The great thing about Kolonaki is that you can alternate shopping with coffee breaks in any of the zillion cafés you spot on your
way. Your steps will unavoidably bring you to Tsakalof Street, aka the “catwalk”, named after its strategically lined up cafés,
packed with trendy people wearing shades, watching you go by. Observatory (Skoufa) is an upmarket six-storey boutique which
sports clothes and accessories from designers such as Marc Jacobs and Ted Baker, but also sports casual wear and shoes. The clothes racks in Louisa (17
Skoufa, 210 3635600) are packed with high-end designer items from Chloe and Missoni. Greek duo Deux Hommes (18 Kanari, 210 3614155) make original
and cutting edge clothes, while Parthenis (20 Dimokritou & Tsakalof, 210 3633158) is known for its signature understated clothes. Carouzos (14 Patriarhou
Ioakeim, 210 7245873) has both men and women’s well-known labels, while Sotris (41 Voukourestiou & Tsakalof, 210 3610662) houses Marni and Miu-Miu
collections among others. If you’re a shoe fanatic, Prasini’s (7-9 Tsakalof, 210 3641590) window display is a sight for fetishist eyes. Quality Greek leather
bags are just a five minute walk away from the main square at Thiros (21 Pindarou, 210 3628445). For all men who like to accesorise Duomo (56, Omirou str.)
is the ideal place for men’s accesories and watches! You will find unique pieces of faux bijoux at Izima (19, Didotou str.)
