Travel Style Guide - Capri

Junior Suite at Punta Tragara Capri

Coronavirus slowly says goodbye from our brains and everyone might be up for summer vacay slowly. Good News: Italy is opening up its borders, and even if Austria is still hesitating towards this milestone in months (god knows why), Germans and many other Europeans are allowed to travel to Italy again without any restrictions. While I am little too late with travelling to Italy (due to Austria’s travel restrictions lately), friends of mine are already sipping Aperol Spritz in the Cinque Terre… Well, I can just tell you guys that this summer’s comeback will be phenomenal: Capri is on the list and there is just one hotel I constantly dream of: The famous Punta Tragara, known for its magnificent and once-in-a-lifetime vistas of the Faraglioni. Go for a Junior Suite with vast terrace, order your bottle of Taittinger or Bellavista (to be more local) and here you go… Life is just as normal as before the pandemic. Price: from EUR 530,00

Grand Sac Capri by Chez Dede

I recently got to know this brand thanks to the Instagram site Yolo Journal. Chez Dede is a super cool Rome-based shop with lots of amazing stuff and they even do hotel accessories. Wherever you go, they have got you covered with beach bags! Price: EUR 390,00

Antonio Linen Shirt by Frescobol Carioca

Frescobol Carioca isn’t a secret brand anymore to the fashion-loving clientele. Their range of swimwear and linen shirts is timelessly elegant and fits every high-priced luxury hotel from the Costiera Amalfitana to the Cote D’Azur. Price: EUR 190,00

Adrexolin Face & Body Lotion by Adrex Pharma

A super interesting product I discovered recently while moving to Munich. ADREXpharma is an independent German pharmaceutical company with a strong focus on Controlled Drugs and Medical Cannabis distribution. I have to admit, I was hesitant too but the smell of this face and body lotion is very nice and it actually removes stains and red areas immediately. Best of all: 100% of the ingredients are natural and plant-based! If that’s not reason enough to give it a try, the price is: Price: 35,00

Ellice Sunglasses by Oliver Peoples

Oliver People is a great brand when it comes to stylish and timeless shades. This piece is a classic that goes well for Aperitivos at Piazzetta or for the ride around the island in one of the Cabriolet Taxis. Price: EUR 413,00

Espadrille Nacho by Castaner

Our Indonesian travel expert, who runs his Instagram under Exploraique loves this Spanish Espadrille brand named Castaner. For a reasonable price, they have a very solid and stylish selection of beach shoes. Even though they have a good selection of man shoes, their range for women is even bigger. Price: EUR 145.00

Capri La Dolce Vita by Assouline

There is an interior design trend towards buying books instead of home accessories. For me, there can’t be enough stylish and chic books at home. This is why I got my second book by Assouline about one of my favourite places in the world showcasing vintage art pieces and pictures of the sweet life on Italy’s jewel island. Price: EUR 95,00

Arancia di Capri by Acqua di Parma

What can I say about Acqua di Parma besides that ever since I explored it 10 years ago, I totally love it. From the classic Colonia bath range to the perfumes of the Blu Mediterraneo line - Acqua di Parma does its job right in all ways. If you head to their flagship stores in Rome and Milan, make sure to benefit from the engraving service! Price: from EUR 56,00

Antonio Linen Shirt by Frescobol Carioca

Because you never can go wrong with a light blue linen shirt in Capri, I would recommend taking another piece from Frescobol Carioca. Works for Aperitivo as much as it does for Dinner at Mammà Capri, my favourite hangout in Capri downtown for upscale dining with a view. Price: EUR 190,00

OP-505 SUN by Oliver Peoples

This is my personal favourite from the entire Oliver Peoples range. Brown shades that work best with an elegant pair of swim shorts or a dark blue linen shirt. Make sure to store the pair correctly when entering the beautiful Carthusia shop in Via Camerelle. Price: EUR 358,00

Pink Clutch Capri by Chez Dede

Another piece from Rome-based shop Chez Dede, because it matters where you put your essentials when heading to Da Fontelina Beach Club. Fits your iPhone, your credit card and a few extras such as a perfume, sun cream and sunglasses. Price: EUR 150,00
