Chic Delights: Sofia Coppola

Louis Vuitton for Fall has another collaboration with Sofia Coppola in a bag named du Sac SC. This bag which is a perfect combination of the Speedy and Keepall with fuchsia trim is exclusive only to Le Bon Marche Rive Gauche, in Paris. This bag is my favourite for travel. They fit everything in there including my DSLR camera. I also admire Sofia Coppola for her classic style and talent as a Film Director. Her collaboration for Louis Vuitton represents her simple, classic, elegant and very discreet luxurious style. So if you happen to be in Paris during this week's Fashion Week, drop by Le Bon Marche to purchase this bag.

The Italian Luxury label, Marni, has a collaboration with H & M which will be available on March 8th. Marni for H & M launched their whole collection in a party in LA with the celebrity guests already wearing some of its items that will be sold at H & M Stores.

Sofia Coppola with Marni Founder and Creative Director, Consuelo Castiglioni.

Marni was founded in 1994 in Milan, Italy by Ciwifurs scion Gianni Castiglioni and his wife, Consuelo. It started small, not known but has grown popular because many Fashion Editors, Models then celebrities started wearing it. They are well known for their Prints which will be evident in the Marni for H&M collaboration. Personally, I like Marni. I am not that big on prints but I don't mind wearing Marni because their clothes were well designed and definitely well made. However, the Marni items are very expensive. But you get high quality and high style for what you pay for... At least with this H&M Collaboration, we can own a piece of Marni.

Marni for H & M Dresses. One thing I like about Marni is the beautiful prints and simple silhouette which makes for easy dressing. I mean, I can wear this dress and I'm ready to head out! I don't have to think too much about the outfit. I hope these dresses will still be available for me to purchase at H&M stores on March 8th!

The model is wearing the Marni for H & M One piece swimsuit, Cardigan, socks and sandals. On her neck is the sequin collar neck piece also made by Marni for H & M.

There was a party in L.A to launch the Marni for H & M collection.

Mila Jovovich and Jessica Chastain wearing the same printed but different silhoutte dresses from the Marni for H & M Collection. I wonder how these celebrities were able to wear these dresses in advance?

There is also a Men's collection. He is wearing the striped sweater and she is wearing the color blocked Fuchsia and green top and shorts outfit.

We cannot miss Drew Barrymore. She is wearing the Marni for H&M Necklace.

Watch the Marni for H & M Video:

This video was Directed by Sofia Coppola with background music by British singer, Bryan Ferry.

I am all excited now for March 8th when the Marni for H & M will be available in stores. We should start thinking now which items to purchase because for sure there will be Rules in shopping on that day. We have to be fast shoppers on that day! What do you think of the collection? Did you like it?

I like the collection very much. I can see that Consuelo Castiglioni well designed and planned this collection. The items are actually very true and consistent with her Marni brand. The items are wearable and most importantly affordable.
