Louis Vuitton 09 Spring Accessories Ad Campaign Review

1 comments
Here are some images from Louis Vuitton 09 Spring Accessories Ad Campaign. It is clear that this time, Louis Vuitton prefer to take advantage of the vivid illustration instead of stylish models to show their accessory items. As far as I concerned, that is the perfect cooperation with New Zealand born illustrator James Dignan. Very innovative, isn't it? Even without the appearance of models, these chic accessories are highlighted much more.




Let's take a good look at the monogram canvas handbag in the following images. It is Louis Vuitton’s latest collection which is named Boétie. It comes with three sizes including PM, MM and GM. Because of their stylish and functional features, they will probably appeal to almost everyone.

The Boétie bag features classic Monogram Canvas, and specially has natural cowhide leather on the top. Besides, it has golden brass hardware which include which includes the golden brass twist lock on the leather flap closure and the bottom studs to protect the bag. In the interior, it has a cell phone pocket and a flat pocket for additional room.


If you have interest in it, you can browse the catalog of Louis Vuitton official site. Though it will cost you much money, it is definitely worth your every penny, I think. It will never let you down.

Louis Vuitton Monogram Multicolore Insolite Wallets

5 comments
Frankly speaking, among all Louis Vuitton wallets, I totally love the Insolite item. It is one of my personal faves.

I once remember the time when Louis Vuitton released new style wallet in classic Monogram Canvas called “Insolite”. The Insolite wallet combines a casual, functional style with sharp details. It can either be held as a clutch or slipped into a bag. The Monogram Canvas Insolite comes with four attractive colors (Red, Ivory, Green and Violette). It’s bigger than the ordinary wallets in the Monogram line so it can also be held as a clutch. It has a zipper and double snap button closure for double protection. The Insolite also has 2 zipped pockets and 12 credit card slots interior. The zipper pulls are made from leather with the same color with the wallet’s grained calfskin inside lining.

Now here comes the brand new Louis Vuitton Insolite which is made of Monogram Multicolore. I deeply know that there are so many of you waiting for it to be released. It comes with five differently colored interiors: Blue, Light Pink, Turquoise, Yellow and Deep Red.

For those of you who would prefer a functional wallet in white/black Murakami, the eye-catching one would be the perfect. It’s really a wonderful accessory to attend evening party, I’m sure. Do you like it?

Today when I browse international news on the Internet, I got some interesting things, especially the following computer generated images about Obama's hairstyle.
As you know, president Obama has a mass of curly, wiry hair that he keeps closely trimmed. Thus his hairstyle is taken special care by the public. Don't just mistake these images for his brand new hairstyle. Actually, they are computer generated by a barbershop of Los Angeles. We have to admit that it is really a wonderful idea to attract more and more customers.

Tiffany Keys Collection

0 comments
These days, I read a fashion magazine about a Tiffany collection called “Keys”. Frankly speaking, I have never heard about that, and it really caught my attention. I spent a little time and have a good look at it. Now, I’m pleased to share information I learned with you.


Brimming with allure, it is a new collection of keys that you're going to love. There's something so intriguing and exciting about a key. A key represents mystery, privilege, and secrecy, and perhaps most importantly, security -- something that is hard to come by lately. The new Tiffany & Co. Key Collection has all that plus more -- including diamonds. As far as I concerned, the new Tiffany Keys Collection is inspired by keys from the Tiffany & Co. Archives. It is literally key pendants. The collection includes an array of fanciful designs: medallion-shaped keys that promise access to wondrous places, romantic heart-shaped keys that might keep love letters private and poetic flower-topped keys that are graceful and feminine.

In fact, these beautiful keys are more magical than practical; none of them open any doors. Still, the elegant, beautiful designs could capture any heart, and a simple engraving could add timeless meaning and individuality to one of these key pendants.


The Tiffany keys come in gold, silver, and platinum with Celtic inspired designs, diamond details, and an array of matching chains is available. Seems so intriguing and exciting about a key. Would you like to have a try?
