WATCH: Louis Vuitton Presents: Voyage dans le temps

Louis Vuitton just released their latest video dedicated to the house's jewelry and watch collections. In the video LV travels through time to shows us the their latest collection "Voyage dans le Temps". The video was shot in a futuristic landscape in the desert with model Alana Zimmer, where she starts her journey through time, with Justice's music in the background. We love that LV was brave enough to created such cool a and modern video. In the video the model wears the stunning Dantelle de Monogram necklace.

The video is pretty amazing, the setting, the lighting and the jewelry is just breath taking. Enjoy!
Press play to watch:

The video was shot in Seville, Spain in the Gema Solar Power Plant.

Louis Vuitton's "Dantelle de Monogram" necklace was inspired by Marc Jacob's catwalk designs. A very supple Victorian lace work collar in gold and diamonds that features the house's motif of flowers and stars found on their trunks and leather goods.

DESIGN: Eurostar / Futuristic Train

British designer Christopher Jenner created a project titled "Eurostar", a ultra-modern train that travels from London to Milan, the capital of fashion. The project remains as a concept, but we are hoping that they get to built it. This luxurious carriage is finished with hardwood, brushed brass and Carbon fibre illustrates the hybrid of the golden age. The train has individual accommodations with single seats with essential armrest services(air, power connection)and retractable privacy, with large screen windows opened on the back of each seat. Don't you just love it? This is by far the best train we have ever seen. Check it out.

iPhone 5 is Out!

The new iPhone 5 just landed, how exciting! The phone has a thin and light design.

"It's the thinnest, lightest, fastest iPhone ever"

- Apple

The iPhone 5 is only 7.5 millimeters thin can you believe it? To do this they created a nano-SIM card, 44 percent smaller than micro-SIM. They also developed a unique cellular solution for iPhone 5, the conventional approach to building LTE into a world phone uses two chips-one for voice, one for data. On iPhone 5, both are on a single chip. The lightning connector is 80 percent smaller than 30-pin connectors. The 8MP iSight camera has even more features-like panorama and dynamic low-light mode- yet it's 20 percent smaller. And the new A6 chip is up to 2X faster than the A5 chip.

7.6 Depth(mm) - 112 Weight(g) - 3.31 Volume(in)
