Luxe’s updated guide to Melbourne

When it comes to getting to know a city, Luxe City Guides get into the full nitty-gritty to really get to know it. And to share it with you, of course, dear reader, so that when planning your next trip to that special destination, you’re fully equipped with the whats, wheres and hows by the time you’ve unpacked your LV duffel bag and started nicking the mini soaps.

Highly opinionated and to the point, the guides are packed with short, sharp summaries of hot spots in places as afar and diverse as Bali and Beijing, Barcelona and Berlin, Miami and Manhattan (well okay, they call it New York but we couldn’t resist the alliteration).

Fresh to the stable is the just-printed 8th edition of Luxe Melbourne, treating readers to morsels of info about things to see and places to go on both sides of the Yarra. There’s a strong focus on fashion, of course, since they say Melbourne is Australia’s fashion capital. And coverage of a host of new hole-in-the-wall coffee haunts and chic restaurants.

Pack one in your hand luggage next time you’re heading to the big M, and boast that you know more about their city than the never-average Melbournian.  Antonino Tati
