I Want To Be A Coppola

If you have read along with my I Want To Be series of sites, you may have noticed the accent on fashion and style and you may now be asking, "Why Sofia Coppola?" If you have visited I Want To Be A Roitfeld, you probably know that Carine Roitfeld is my first love, so I am going to let her explain this one: "Why Sofia Coppola?" she was asked with regard to her choice of guest editors for Vogue Paris. Carine replied in her candid manner, "Well, two years ago she was not that famous in France. Now she's everywhere... she's married to a French (Thomas Mars, leader of Phoenix)... she did Marie Antoinette... Why her? Well, because I think she is 'la fille du moment.' We love her films, music she chooses for her movies, etc. She's very fashion, her movies are very 'fashion'... I think she really likes France." I thinks she sums it up nicely...

Yes, being that Carine is such a cool and eloquent cat, it seemed logical to let her lead us off on the right note.
