coppola crush

other than being a film director, actress, producer and Academy Award-winning screenwriter; Sophia Coppola is also my inspiration for my girl crush post. wooo! she's the daughter of set decorator/artist Eleanor (née Neil) and director Francis Ford Coppola, granddaughter of the late composer Carmine Coppola, sister of Roman Coppola and the late Gian-Carlo Coppola, niece of Talia Shire and a cousin of Nicolas Cage, Jason Schwartzman and Robert Carmine. kay, so i don't know who some of those people are, but it seems inevitable that she'd become famous too. and though my dad always gets mad that daughters or sons of famous actors can become famous too although they have no acting talent, i think Coppola has found success based on merit. i'm watching Lost in Translation for the second time this week and it really has the perfect combination of humor, aesthetics, and emotion. her soundtracks and imagery are always incredible. and so is... her style! she interned with Karl Lagerfeld at Chanel when she was in high school. and she modeled for Marc Jacobs. i guess he also named some bag after her.. anyway. she knows what she's doing. U GO GRL!~
