Today's Everyday Fashion: Capri

Oh Capri. Such a tiny little dot on the map, but the world makes a giant fuss about you. And rightly so - this little gem off the Amalfi coast in Italy has some of the bluest water you've ever seen in your life, yachts for days, and a palpable Hollywood vibe. This maxi dress was a last minute addition to my suitcase and I'm so glad I packed it because it fit the mood of the day perfectly. Normally I'd wear this maxi for "dressy" occasions only, but my old rule (something I used to say on the blog years ago) - "wear the good china" - came bubbling up and reminded me not to save things you love, but give them lots of wear that they deserve. If they get dirty, that's what soap is for! A little more worn looking? That's an honorable life for a piece of clothing! (For the record, after hours on a boat and lots of walking around Annacapri, my dress did not appear to be either worn or dirty... so there's that.) More on this part of Italy in tomorrow's post!
