As the summer hits its peak, we all have travel on the brain. For VF’s Elise Taylor, that means a visit to 75-year-old Amalfi Coast gem Le Sirenuse, where guests including Princess Margaret, the Rolling Stones, and Kylie Jenner have gone to decompress. And for our art correspondent, Nate Freeman, it’s a hop to the Hamptons, where artist Matt Johnson’s 60-foot-tall installation, Meditating Figure, has prompted a bitter dispute between East Hampton officials and a lauded artspace.
If you’re still looking for inspiration on where to spend the last of your vacation, this peek at Tom Holland and Zendaya’s wedding celebration venue, Beaverbrook might be your hint to head to Surrey. Or perhaps this report on Prince William and Kate Middleton’s loyalty to Mustique is the nudge toward the Caribbean you need.
And me? How kind of you to ask. I was dazzled by Bob Colacello’s story on the revival of Palm Springs when it arrived in my mailbox in 1999—while I cracked that issue open for its cover subject, Julia Roberts, Bob’s piece on PS kicked off my lifelong obsession with the town. My husband, dogs, and I are heading to our usual spot there this evening, for a quick summer holiday of our own. See you by the pool!
