Style Profile: Virginie's Cinema

Name: Virginie

Occupation: Independent Movie producer

Site: Virginie’s Cinema

Location: Québec, Canada

When and why did you start your site? 

I started a blog in 2010 to document my career adventures and travels because I was attending a lot of film festivals wanted to keep memories and have something tangible to analyse the growth of my career. It always had a stong root in personal style too since I believe our clothes can help us achieve our dreams.

 How would you describe your site? 

It’s my personal diary of my journey in filmmaking through style, leading a creative life and staying inspired.

Where do you get your inspiration? 

My main inspiration is cinema. I’m a hardcore cinephile and am inspired by it all, from the French New Wave to Contemporary Japanese cinema…

Who are your style/beauty icons? 

My favortie icon is Brigitte Bardot. She is beautiful in a really careless way and very free with her style and body.

Describe your personal style. 

I’d say girly geek. I don’t ahere to only one aesthetic and let my inspiration take me where it wants to!

What was the best style/beauty advice you were given? 

That it’s not about finding but rather creating your style.

Where are your favourite places to shop? 

My favortie type of shopping is online shopping, because there is so much more choice! My favorites are ModCloth and Asos. I also believe in creative consumerism so I thrift and swap a lot!

What are your favourite trends for this season? 

Neon lipstick and nail polish.

Style/Beauty Pet Peeve?

I don’t have any pet peeves in general… I believe in living and letting live :)

What do you never leave home without? 

My Joie de vivre?!

What are your five essential items that you think every woman should own? 

A great chambray shirt, a perfectly fitted skinny denim pant, a really colourful and impactful cocktail dress, ankle booties and extravagant sunglasses.

Where do you see yourself and your site in five years? 

In five years I hope that both Ramiro and I can make a living solely making our movies (currently Ramiro still works as a video game screenwriter on Marvel franchises, which is crazy cool noetheless!), I hope to continue to travel all over the world in movie festivals with my projects and document our journey on Virginie’s Cinema! I hope for growth and happiness in both the site, my career and my personal life :)

 What's on your nightstand? 

A picture of my wedding (he he), a bouquet of silk flowers that I used in one of my roof top videos, a vintage crystal vase, my collection of rings and a book on independent movie distribution.
