T&H spent a week in Puglia, Italy (the heel of boot part of Italy!) and loved it. Here are some pics of the places we visited and kaftans we wore! Our favourite places included the gorgeous seaside town of Polignano, Cisternino, the gastronomic town of Ceglia Messapica (where we ate at the fantastic restaurant Cibus) and the trulli filled town of Alberello. We wore Hero kaftan in Sandgrouse red/cream, Hero kaftan in Cloud navy/cream, Hero Kaftan in Umbel with Pareo in Big Bird marine black/mint/pink as scarf.
