Source: Cinemafanatic

Isn’t it nice/jealousy-inducing when the children of incredibly talented famous people turn out to be just as incredibly talented as their predecessors?

If you’ve ever wanted to emulate her latest, greatest, and most lovely, read on for a comprehensive guide to follow along with the best style moments in her movies. read more…

HOW TO: Live Your Life Like A Sofia Coppola Film

With unifying aesthetics that can only be loosely defined as somewhere along the lines of ‘lovely,’ Sofia Coppola’s directional reel is ever-growing. From the breakout The Virgin Suicides to the wildly acclaimed Lost In Translation, and the controversial Marie Antoinette to the cult hit Somewhere, Sofia Coppola is clearly doing something right…because we can’t stop watching.

So, we present to you: WHEN STARS COLLIDE. read more…
