Oh, Vermeer, it seems we’ve all gone a bit Girl with a Pearl Earring over the last season – everyone is starting to rock a Baroque pair of pearl earrings. My favourites are imperfect freshwater pearls, with a bit of gold thrown in for added luxe. Wear them with your going OUT-out outfit, or use […]

Style like a Queen. Fashion moments from The Favourite.
I don’t know how The Favourite got on at The Oscars last night. I am currently on media lockdown on account of not staying up until the wee small hours in the UK to watch (I did it for Leo in 2016, but I’m 30 years old, 5am bedtimes are just TOO MUCH). So while […]
Yes you can work some teenage girl style into your adult wardrobes. Fashion moments from The Virgin Suicides.
I’m kicking off this year’s LauLauLand posts with my new monthly StyleXCinema roundup, showcasing all the films I find that are packed with style inspiration. It’s no secret that I’m a little obsessed with The Virgin Suicides (you can find my VS inspired dress here). Sofia Coppola’s masterpiece is iconic in its style. Dreamy, nostalgic […]
RedRum. The Shining inspired outfit.
Sometimes, horror stories come in the form of a bad winter cold on your birthday. I am almost a child of Halloween (born on October 29th and forever wishing as a teen it was October 31st so I could pretend I was a witch) and this month’s frightful situation came with two of the scariest […]
5 of the best Coppola Girl style moments

Sofia set the bar high with dreamy directorial debut The Virgin Suicides and then she just kept on going with the likes of Lost in Translation, The Bling Ring and most recently […]
Wild Women Do – The Pretty Woman Inspired Outfit
I have been watching Pretty Woman for so many years I don’t even remember the first time. I’m pretty sure I didn’t understand what was going on when I first watched it as a child, but something in it captivated me. It was probably Julia Roberts, she definitely has that effect. Anyhow, as dated as […]
An interior nod to the great Wes Anderson
Ah Wes. No film style blog would ever be complete without him. I do have a long list of specific Wes Anderson films that I intend to nod to in future outfit posts, but for now, I thought I’d create a little corner of my home dedicated to the doyen of cinema. Of course, I […]
The Lisbon Sister – The Virgin Suicides inspired look
I first found The Virgin Suicides when I was about 16. For some reason, I’ve always been drawn to the macabre (I grew up listening to Radiohead), and I was entranced by the dreamy, romantic vision of these five sisters and their beautifully sad story. Although it was the first feature for director Sofia Coppola, […]
