What do you get when you mix the brilliance of director Sofia Coppola with the whimsical designs of Marni and the budget-friendly retailer that is H&M? A match made in fashion heaven, basically. Coppola has directed the commercial for H&M’s latest collaboration, a capsule collection with Marni due out on March 8. In the commercial, you will see British actress Imogen Poots by a pool, at a party, and riding in a car, all the while wearing pieces from the collection, natch. And it is all set to the dreamy sound of Bryan Ferry’s “Avalon,” which seems quite fitting. Do you have a better plan this Saturday afternoon? Click inside to watch the full commercial.

Amanda Seyfried graces the cover of Glamour’s March 2012 issue, the first issue featuring the magazine’s new redesign, wearing a Pierre Balmain top and Hudson jeans. Inside, she discusses having kids and whether she feels competitive with other actresses.
On having kids: “Oh yeah, I think about kids all the time. I feel like the next person I commit to, that’s going to be the guy who I’m going to have kids with. That’s in my crazy female brain. So that’s why I’m like, ‘I can’t commit.’ ”
On if she feels competitive with other actresses: “Yeah, sometimes. But the funny thing is, the girls that I’m always up against for roles are pretty nice and cool, like Emma Watson. She’s awesome. She’s really funny and smart. And Carey Mulligan. It’s flattering to be up against her because she’s really good, and she’s cool too…I think the era of the diva actress is coming to an end.”

Footwear designers have plenty of room to be playful, but we are particularly excited about the spring 2012 collection from Loeffler Randall. Designer Jessie Randall wanted to create a spring collection that felt “fresh and new,” so she took inspiration from a variety of sources—see her mood board above—and set out to infuse her designs with neon, polka dots, neoprene, and woven straw, just to name a few. The result is an eclectic and fun collection that is perfect for spring. Key pieces include: the Dita sandal, a tribal-print platform heel with a peep-toe and tie-up ankle strap; the Chloe, a classic nude wegde; and the Filippa, a flat sandal in bottle-green python print. To check out the full collection, head to LoefflerRandall.com.

Gwyneth Paltrow graces the cover of Harper’s Bazaar’s March 2012 issue, the first issue to show off the magazine’s redesign. Inside, Gwyneth discusses her website, her marriage, and the death of her father.
On why her website, Goop, is successful: “Everything I’ve done has been completely organic, and that’s why the brand is a strong brand, because there is no ulterior motive behind it,” she says.
On marriage: “I think you do fall in and out of love and you just keep going, and every time you go through a really difficult phase, you rediscover something new and it just gets better. We’ve been married for more than eight years now, and we’re still into it.”
On losing her father, Bruce Paltrow: “I would do anything to have him back, but half the reason that my life is good, has real, true value, is that he died. I would obviously rather have him alive, but he gave me so much in his death.”
