Louis Vuitton “Malle Mars” Apollo 11 Commemoration Trunk

In commemoration of the 40th Anniversary of Apollo 11’s first lunar landing, which takes place on Jul 20th, Louis Vuitton has designed a custom-made “Malle Mars” trunk. The robotic, space age-looking piece opens in multiple places, unveiling a variety of compartments and drawers, fully equipped to carry various essential items.

Louis Vuitton Tambour Mysterieuse

Based on the mysterious movement clocks created by the famed Jean-Eugene Robert Houdin in the 19th century, Louis Vuitton’s new calibre LV115 is a near transparent wonder. This calibre is actually the first from Louis Vuitton to have been created, developed and assembled entirely in the brand’s workshops in Switzerland.

With an 8-day power reserve, there is nothing superfluous about this mechanical movement and its robustness stands in stark contrast to its ephemeral nature. As in the general principle of mysterious movements, the hour and minute hands actually sit on mobile sapphire discs that are totally transparent.

The small seconds display is at 9 o’clock in the visible section of the movement, dial-side. Like the tourbillon from Louis Vuitton, this watch is fully customizable and every piece has the potential to be unique, largely, at no extra cost.

265,000USD for a watch?

The Tambour Mystérieuse comes in its own Louis Vuitton trunk and will cost you $265,000. Each watch of the model takes a whole year to be finished which will probably give you an idea why this costs so much.

Josefine’s latest purchases

I found this Sonia by Sonia Rykiel dress on sale, 30%. It was reduced from 900dkk to 630dkk.

I love this Saint Tropez cardigan. It's the perfect fit for me and I love this pink/coral color! I need more coral for summer :D

After weeks of waiting I finally found the orange fizz nail polish. It was the last one in the shop!

Jil Sander for Uniqlo

More information has leaked today about the upcoming collection that Jil Sander is creating for Japanese fashion retailer Uniqlo. The line will be called +J.

“Jil Sander’s creative role at Uniqlo extends beyond the +J collection to the brand’s other apparel and accessories for men and women. But it is understood that the designer is focusing her initial efforts on the fall/winter launch of this newly created collection, flying frequently between her home in Hamburg, Germany and Tokyo.

The +J collection will be sold at Uniqlo’s flagship stores in major cities and on the brand’s own website. A release date has not been established yet, according to a Fast Retailing spokeswoman.”
