For the grand opening of the Macao flagship store, Louis Vuitton came up with some really exclusive, special pieces. Macao is a a mecca for gaming in the East... so they started out with a no holds barred luxury custom monogram Louis Vuitton Casino Trunk. You know how I feel about custom trunks! I'm no gambler- but this is pretty amazing!
Check out the whole spread in ilvoelv.com!
OK... I know- no brainer. But for some of my mayjah chocoholic friends- this question might not be so easy!
Marie Claire posted some of their favorite luxury gifts for the holidays- and one was this $15,000 custom Italian leather trunk from renowned chocolatier MarieBelle.
For $15,000 you can get a fantastic vintage Louis Vuitton or Goyard trunk- in pretty great condition. I'm just not that into straight chocolate. A temptation for me would be a custom Louis Vuitton warming trunk made exclusively for transporting out of the oven chocolate chip cookies!
What do you think?

Oh wow! Louis Vuitton Lover just posted this amazing Louis Vuitton Christmas Chest. It's a special ornament trunk- and I'm just dying over it!
This one's got me picturing little elves in the Louis Vuitton Workshop in Asnieres hammering away at each brass nail- working their hardest to get it done in time for Christmas- (cue your favorite Carol now!) Anyway- apparently there were only five of these things made. Wonder who's been nice this year?
I always fall for the Louis Vuitton charity auction- customized trunk thing... This one is for the 150th aniversary of the Red Cross. They've picked six designers and will auction off their six custom trunks with a little help from Sothebys. Love the one that artist Damien Hirst created above- a medical supply trunk above... Love the "red cross" details!!!
The trunk below was done by our very own Marc Jacobs... It's his doggie trunk! Obviously this isn't for your little lap dog- the one that fits in your bag! This is for his two massive boxers... living in th lap of luxury!
This is the custom trunk of Gustavo Santaolalla (he did the music for Babel and Brokeback Mountain)- for a Lute? Or some other stringed contraption....
Love this one from Louis Vuitton Patrick-Louis Vuitton. He's not only one of Louis Vuitton's descendants and the guy in charge of LV Special Orders- but he's a painter- and so designed a special trunk for his brushes and watercolors!
And this one is the custom backpack camera bag of famed photog and Louis Vuitton favorite, Annie Leibovitz...
Love creative ways to raise money for a good cause!
Wow! This collaboration totally kills it! How amazing...
What I love the most is that this is what Louis Vuitton has always done best. They started out doing custom trunks, and for the past 150+ years, the customization still looks very much like the original pieces. And don't get me wrong- I LOVE that.
But this is a totally modern twist on that... a set of luggage that fits the look and feel of the new Infiniti Essence. It's the historic, iconic Damier Monogram- but in the modern Graphite, and obviously sleek lines and look that mirror the car!
What do you think??? And who the heck is the lucky SN?
Just wondering if this (Marc Jacob's Louis Vuitton monogram canvas "Fantasy Dog" bag pictured above on a Damier Sauvage rug) inspired this frightening little bit of LV appropriation art from Meryl Smith:
... that I blogged about a while back...
What do you think?
