We have rounded up some of our favorites gifts for men. From the beer lover to the wine enthusiast, the business traveler to the techy, our list comprises classic and timeless gifts that can be given year-round.

At Aztro we like to think gifts don’t have to be limited to a particular season. However, with the holidays quickly approaching, we have rounded up some of our favorites gifts for women. From the jewelry lover to the eco-conscious, the design enthusiast to the classicist, we have selected timeless gifts that can be given year round.

In the rapidly changing global marketplace, particularly due to COVID-19, retailers are having to shift and adapt their business models in order to remain in business. For many, this means selling online, for others it is rethinking physical stores to meet the needs and demands of their customer base. So what can we learn from IKEA?

Start your day on one of Rome’s premier design streets exploring art galleries and home good stores alike. You won't come away empty handed! A relaxing lunch and stop at the Gagosian gallery recharges you for an afternoon perusing the art and antique stores that line some of the most beautiful streets in Rome. End the day discussing your finds with locals over a glass of wine and charcuterie board. Your path along the way will take you through the heart of the city with the opportunity to admire architectural feats while enjoying (arguably) Rome’s best gelato.

While there are a thousand gelato shops sprinkled, it seems, on every corner of the city, we have our tried and true favorites. Made in small batches with fresh ingredients and often hidden from view, you won't find the gelato overflowing; brightly colored or topped with fake fruit (a tell-tale sign that is it commercially produced and probably not very good), and you certainly won't be disappointed!

For some of us working from home is the norm but for most it was a challenge thrown at us due to COVID. Kids, roommates, partners, small spaces...all present challenges in this new working environment. Even seasoned work-from-homers are feeling the pressure with the inability to go to co-working spaces or a favorite cafe.

Unique, intricate, and dazzling are just a few words to describe the works of master goldsmith Gerardo Sacco. His passion for jewelry started at the tender age of 10 and provided him the opportunity to better his life. Forced to drop out of school and work to help support himself and his family, Sacco soon became the apprentice to a local jeweler. He worked for the jeweler for nearly 12 years, when at the age of 22 he decided to start his own business.

It is a beautiful spring day as I head down Via dei Condotti towards Rome’s Cartier Boutique. As I approach, the sun hits the window such that I cannot help to stop and marvel at the grandeur of the necklaces on display. One in particular catches my eye: a mother-of-pearl delicately laid in a disc of yellow gold, surrounded by a halo of diamonds with a single diamond adorning the middle.

Billowing leather skirts and culottes, midi-length dresses of layered ruffles, and loose-fitting frocks adorned with bows and feathers define Salvatore Ferragamo’s spring/summer 2016 collection.
