Today, Filonos is a street full of shoe stores. A few decades ago though, Filonos used to be the red district of the port of Piraeus. You can get there easily by train (it's about 3 blocks away from Piraeus train station) or bus (040 from Syntagma will drop you off at Dimotiko Theatro, 2 streets opposite Filonos). I know it doesn't look like much in the picture, but dig this: it's a mile of shoe stores!
The 35 euro boots that elsewhere will cost you 100. Now I've got proof. Print it and rub it at the face of those who think they can cheat this way:)
Apart from the excellent prices, I really like the shops down there for being unique and covering aaaall styles and types of feet. It is more than fashion really and I think that's great. It should always be about personal style and not what big brands want you to stock on each season. Style is beyond fashion, and that's what this blog is all about anyway.
And these are my sister's next target. Not sure how I feel about shiny leather on such a large surface, but for 70 euros, what the heck!
Hope this was inspiring. I definetely enjoyed sharing.

Those pink wellies are out of this world! So jealous! I would ask you too!
Too bad Filonos is too far away from where I live in Athens... But I'll keep that tip in mind. Who knows where my shopping adventures will take me next time?
PS If your sister gets the boots, we want pictures!
