The White Lotus is back for season three, and we’re ready to lounge on a few Thai beaches (minus the murder, obviously). Our guide to the country’s islands is below, along with a crash course on Tokyo’s record-spinning hot spots and the world’s best vintage shop, according to WNDR LN founder Tina Wells.

CHECKING IN
Tina Wells, wearing a navy blazer and gold jewelry, smiles at the camera.

Tina Wells, founder of luggage brand WNDR LN, shares what she’s been loving lately.

 

Packing: My favorite Hermès cashmere blanket scarf and, of course, my WNDR LN self-care kit. The bonnet is silky and luxurious, and the sleep mask is divine.

Reading: I just finished None of This Is True by Lisa Jewell and Too Late by Colleen Hoover. Both were so enjoyable!

Shopping: I spend a lot of time in Florence. Desii, the best vintage store in the world, is a quick walk from the Duomo.

Dreaming of: Japan.

OUTBOUND

Block-printed travel pouches, Alexis Bittar’s new jewels for The St. Regis New York, and the Italian-made zebra ring of our dreams. It’s charcuterski season. The Neon Museum goes behind the scenes of that other Vegas must-see, Cirque du Soleil.
