Full disclosure: I have a thing for aging rockers. Something about Steven Tyler and his fabulous scarves gets me every time. And don't get me started on David Bowie. He is Cool defined. I swoon.

Enough about me. (I'll go back to doodling "CH hearts DB" on my notebooks now) Louis Vuitton apparently has a similar infatuation. Keith Richards appears in the designer's newest ad, shot by seminal shutterbug Annie Leibovitz:

The graying, palm-tree-climbing Stone looks positively disaffected in the disheveled hotel room. His battered Louis serves as a makeshift table for tea (whisky?) and a notebook. Sure, Richards might be a few brain cells short of a full sentence these days, but he still has major street cred (Necessary, in my opinion, as the last Vuitton ad featured Mikhail Gorbachev). Love it.
