The magazine decided to “Seas the Day” with our Pet’s Mediterranean Summer, and in our typically brilliant manner, we decided to show that off too. At least we were not responsible for the pun in the title (although we do appreciate it mightily). Maybe there’s hope for them after all.
Traveling with Cherie Noel
Sizzling Cherie may well be the ultimate summer babe — and the stunning blonde tells of her recent Cherie Noel travels, this time spending the season around the Mediterranean, enjoying the area’s wonderful weather and warm waters. True to form, our August 2021 Pet of the Month explored the South of France, traveled down the coast of Italy, and soaked up the sun and nightlife in Greece.
Naturally, we’re catching up with Cherie to hear all about her European adventure. Living vicariously may not be quite as good as experiencing something yourself, but it can make for an entertaining substitute — and a darned beautiful one.
“France has many amazing beaches, and Saint-Tropez will always be one of my favorites,” says the native of New York state. “I started my trip by taking a boat out around the coast of the South of France.”
The next day, Cherie visited one of the region’s famed beach clubs.
“I love Begatelle because you can relax at the beach or join the day party for lunch. They serve food before the evening’s party gets underway. They have table-dancing, champagne showers, and a bottle service show. It’s like no other place I’ve been,” candid Cherie confides.
The jet-setter also spent a few days wandering the costal destination’s Old Town.
“I visited the Dior Cafe for lunch and finished my last evening in Saint-Tropez at one of my favorite restaurants, L’Opéra,” she shares.
We’ll pop in with a Cherie Noel Travels gallery at this point, purely to help put some of these things in order in your brain, of course. It may be difficult to focus on the settings and surroundings at first effort, but if you keep concentrating, it will work. Honest.
Next, Cherie flew to Italy, landing in Rome and driving a few hours south to Naples, where she briefly stopped for Sorbillo Esterina’s famous calzone on her way to Positano, a cliff-side village on the country’s Amalfi Coast. Few places can equal this location which overlooks the turquoise waters of the Mediterranean Sea.
“To me, Positano is one of the most romantic places to visit,” she sighs. “My first day was spent out on the water, taking a boat around the island of Capri. It’s a beautiful island right by Positano, known for its scenic rock formations. When sailing through the archway of the one called Faraglioni de Mezzo, you’re supposed to make a wish and share a kiss with your sweetheart for luck.”
“The next few days, I spent my time at the beach. Positano has a beautiful cove, which is perfect for taking a dip in the ocean.”
The hazel-eyed hottie also visited La Scogliera, a beach club near the coast. “It’s the perfect place to rent a chair, sunbathe and enjoy the relaxing view with a few drinks,” says Cherie. “I spent my last day in Italy driving back to Rome and exploring the city before heading to Greece.”
Mykonos was to be our avid traveler’s final destination one this trip, enjoying the Greek island’s member-only Soho House location.
“I’m not a member, but I was lucky enough to travel with someone who has a membership. I have to say Mykonos ranks as the best one I’ve visited. It’s also within walking distance of Scorpios. The food there was my favorite on the island — with Interni Restaurant coming in a close second,” says Cherie.
“Besides the food, it has the best beach to lounge on during the day, and at night it becomes one of the best places to party. It’s definitely a spot you need to visit no matter the time of day.”
It seems like maybe traveling with Cherie Noel should come with its own theme: Come for the view. Stay for the food. … She should probably license Cherie Noel Travels as an excursion package, right?
One thing about beauty, once you understand it, you can create it on either side of the camera.
You’ll see Cherie again soon in the Lacy Lennon report on the Summer Pet Party, 2024 version, and at that point you’ll see that no matter what her look, our August 2021 Pet manages to captivate a frame without even trying. Should you not wish to wait, we’d encourage an Instagram visit in the meantime. Honestly, you’ll probably follow and come back often. We do.
