The Devil Wears Prada 2 is in full swing in all cinemas, and one thing is for certain it's not just the spectacular wardrobes we'll be lusting after, it's also the incredible holiday spots too that you will covet.


While for those who have yet to see it, no spoilers here. I've selected a few of the chicest spots from the sequel that should be on your holiday wish lists, far enough away from your own work life and maybe your own Miranda Priestly boss.



The movie is obviously set in New York so that's our first stop, There are several scenes set in the newly reopened Waldorf Astoria New York. Which sets a spectacular backdrop for many scenes, You too can check in here Waldorf Astoria New York | The Greatest of Them All. The Perfect base for you to explore all the iconic hotspots featured in the movie, from the Manhattan Dior store to all the New York food hot spots , (which is always high on my travel itinerary) featured in this highly anticipated sequel.


In the film, Andy has a first date at the SoHo location of this popular Mediterranean restaurant, sitting in one of the corner banquettes that the spot touts on its website.


This American restaurant known for its pancakes and comfort food is located in the Tribeca neighbourhood of New York City. It opened in 1990 and was a hot spot for the celebrity couple JFK jnr and Carolyn Bessette, who were frequent diners in Bubby's. In the film, Andy and her friends talk about journalism as they have fries, beers and cocktails at the restaurant, and Andy later joins her friend Mack, played by Larry Mitchell, for cocktails at its bar.




In the Sequel we were also taken to the Hamptons, to Miranda Priestly 's home away from the city. While exact filming locations remain suitably under wraps, production was reportedly spotted at several locations across the exclusive enclave, including a sprawling waterfront estate on the island’s north-eastern tip.


For those without a Hamptons address of their own, a stay at The Reform Club Amagansett | Luxury Hotel in The Hamptons. The Reform Club offers a convincing alternative. Set among English-style gardens and just moments from the Atlantic beaches, the former boarding house has been reimagined as a collection of private cottages and suites, each with a distinctly curated feel.



Filming also took place in Milan which was for "Runway Fashion show" Here we had shots of the exterior and interior of the incredible five star hotel Palazzo Parigi Hotel & Grand Spa | 5-Star Hotels in Milan. located just a few moments from the snazzy fashion district, check out their website for special offers.



One of Italy's most luxurious, picturesque destinations, Lake Como is just 30 minutes from Milan so it's no surprise that it was a fitting place to find Miranda Priestly, thanks to its private atmosphere and grand palazzo stays, with sweeping views up the lake itself.

In the movie, it see Andy ( Anne Hathaway) and Emily (Emily Blunt) visit Villa Balbiano, the 16th-century home of Cardinal Tolomeo Gallio , and now, one of the Lake's most sought-after wedding venues and it's easy to see why.

Surrounded by topiary, it's the largest private residence on the lake, and boasts an outdoor swimming pool, a private pier and a boathouse.




So now all that's left to do is check into these fabulous venues, pack your bags, don't forget those heels and channel your inner Andy or Emily , as these stays promise a luxury experience and to quote Miranda Priestly " Everybody wants this. Everybody wants to be us.” That's All.
