This year marks the 15th year of Louis Vuitton's coveted City Guides — in my opinion, the most stylish way to travel. And in celebration of this anniversary, they have announced that their series has had a complete make-over in design, and that nothing has been spared to make this unique collection truly exceptional. Covering the world's 15 most exciting cities, each volume covers an individual city, across all the continents, focused on fashion, design, contemporary art, food and culture.

And the best news of all is that one of the cities covered is Cape Town. My home town. In all its beautiful, quirky, complicated, hipster glory. Of course the Cape Town volume won't just be about us, it will also carry the LV philosophy of travel — as an art with multiple facets — packing tips, and features local guest contributor Beezy Bailey. You can buy the volumes individually (new BEST gift ever) or you can get your hands on the limited edition lacquered wood case of all 15 volumes and cities.
The new series will be available from the 1st November and pricing will be about 30Euros.
