The fabulous Bill Murray karaoke scene in Lost in Translation is reason enough to love Sofia Coppola. Who didn't want to swap places with Scarlett Johansson for a go on the mike? And, I know it's a bit of a cliché to bang on about how chic this scion of Hollywood royalty is, but for grown-up style inspiration, her low-key look on La Croisette has been second to none. Largely Louis Vuitton - she is mates with Marc Jacobs after all - the 42-year-old's look is very modern, very pared-down Parisian. Or a bit like Alexa Chung without the quirk.

I really love her no frou-frou style.
ReplyDeleteeffortlessly stylish, love her.
ReplyDeleteBeing flat chested helps, it is so hard to pull this sort of look off with 'norks'.

ReplyDeleteI love the simple shape of the black dress, done in an elegant fabrication. She looks wonderful.
ReplyDeleteGreat fan of her style-although I have read she doesn't want to be considered an icon, I feel she has every right to be considered one.
ReplyDeleteI'm a fan. She always looks just-right.
ReplyDeleteoooh loving the shiny dress!!
ReplyDeleteWell, I must be the only one here, who was not inspired with SC´s choice of clothes for Cannes (;. Sorry.
ReplyDeleteSpot-on observation "Alexa Chung without the quirk", wish I'd thought of it!
ReplyDeleteEven though I'm a wee bit older than Sofia, I find her understated style so appealing and inspiring. Have been following her oh-so-cool look for years. thanks!
ReplyDeleteI love the dresses but I'm not so sure about the trousers and shirt - looks a little too much lie Parisian accountant for my taste. Fill marks for the make-up too though.
