Positano, Italy

A trip to the Amalfi Coast feels like stepping into a movie with that magical mix of old Hollywood glamour and modern day Italian style. The sun shines in a bright blue sky over craggy peaks with cascades of vertiginous houses tumbling down to the sea in frothy shades of sunbleached pinks, peaches and pistachio. Plump lemons hang in verdant trees over winding coastal roads, flanked by grand wisteria draped hotels, designer boutiques and chic terraced restaurants full of Italy’s jet set.
