In the past seasons, the Louis Vuitton woman is typically seen with crazy heels and sky-high platforms but for Spring 2010, she descends back down to earth donning robust wooden clogs with low hardware-inspired heels. Sandals, mules and half-boots in pony-styled calf, grained leather or Monogram Denim were embellished with rustic tufts of fur and swinging tassels, while hi-tech honeycomb fabric was crisscrossed with sporty straps.

For the May 2010 issue of Vogue Nippon, the gorgeous Lily Donaldson graces the cover photographed by Inez van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin decked out with pieces from Louis Vuitton’s Spring/Summer 2010 collection which includes the Les Extraordinaires collection spaghetti printed silk ribbons embroidered dress, runway Plumber bracelets, Monogram Denim Sunshine in Blue, and Foxy Bag Charm in Orange. Overall, I think its a great cover. Very summery, fresh and colorful!
