The cool girl’s luxury travel edit

Travel, now, is an experience that begins long before takeoff. If your perfectly curated pinterest-y security tray makes it to Instagram before the hotel room does, we’re besties without introduction. Whether you’re jetting off for a weekend in the French Riviera or a staycation closer to home, these are the essentials that deserve a spot in every cool girl’s carry-on.

LV x TM Cruiser Toiletry Bag

The Louis Vuitton Cruiser Toiletry Bag brings back one of the House’s most beloved collaborations with Takashi Murakami. Inspired by the historic Cruiser Bag, it is finished with natural cowhide-leather trims, gold-tone rivets and a washable cream textile lining, making it as practical as it is collectible. Throw in your lip balms and AMEX, and you’re all set.

Amazon Kindle Scribe Colorsoft

For years, Kindle loyalists had one wish – bring colour to the e-reader without sacrificing the paper-like experience that made them fall in love with it in the first place. Enter the Amazon Kindle Scribe Colorsoft, the brand’s first colour-enabled Scribe that is an e-reader, a notebook and a digital sketchbook, all in one. It features an expansive 11-inch glare-free Colorsoft display, with a lighter body, improved writing responsiveness and AI-powered productivity tools that make it just as useful for planning an itinerary as it is for getting lost in a novel at 35,000 feet.

The latest USB-C update makes charging simpler than ever, while the sleek aluminium design ensures they look just as good draped over a cashmere travel set as they do tucked into your carry-on.
