At a time when sun-drenched European summers still feel worlds apart from our current reality, it is our friends abroad who remind us of the sweet feel of freedom & the invincible beauty of our favourite places.. Grateful for the #friendsofBOTEH Gigi & Raquel who let us be there in spirit..✨

I always take little road trips while I'm traveling, I would recommend renting a car to visit Oumnass, Agafay, and Essaouira. Oumnass is a very quiet rural area, Agafay is also known as the stone desert and Essaouira is a coastal town. If you're up for a long drive check out Ouarzazate to visit the UNESCO World Heritage Site, Aït Benhaddou.
Cafe de Espices, Le Kilim, and Le Jardin. Also, Azalai Urban Souk and Moro are both concept stores so you can do some shopping after lunch.
Definitely the architecture and design elements.
It's so hard to pick just one but the Arch Stelia Bralette is one piece I wear on repeat. I love layering it, wearing it as a crop top or with bikini bottoms for a pool day. Stay tuned for the new collection because I am OBSESSED with the prints and designs. Every piece is a dream!
Hopefully, I'll be traveling to Spain again in September. Can't wait to explore the Balearic Islands in my new Boteh pieces.

Just get lost in the narrow streets of Positano, I really love this place because is one of the first Italian wonderful places I have visited when I came to live in there. I use to come every year with my boyfriend and friends, it’s a sort of welcome to the summer season. Another nice thing to do is “Il Sentiero degli Dei”, the views are worth it.
For Lunch:
For Aperitivo:
Absolutely my favs are Il San Pietro Hotel for the amazing views and Villatreville is a magic place.But if you want an aperitive with live music you should go to the Fly Bar.
For Dinner:
Chez black (in town)Wonderful caftans, lots of bikinis, fluid sarongs to mix with linen shirts and light dresses for romantic nights in Costiera! Don’t forget to buy a pair of “sandali alla schiava”, the famous sandals from Positano artisans.
I am in love with Zofie Mini Smock Dress and La Ponche Shirt, both super stylish!
