Kirsten Dunst: Marni Shopping Spree!

Kirsten Dunst checks out the latest at the Marni boutique on Melrose Place on Friday (April 29) after a workout in West Hollywood.

The Melancholia actress celebrated her 29th birthday the following day (April 30) – happy belated birthday, Kirsten!

Director Lars Von Trier filled Empire in on what his latest film is about. “As you can see in the trailer, Melancholia, [which is the name of] the planet, is kind of ten times bigger than the Earth, and I liked the idea of being ‘swallowed’ by Melancholia. I thought that was quite nice. And then I read today that that’s actually one of the virtues of romanticism – willingly being purified by dying. In fact, the film contains maybe more of the original idea of romanticism. I’m just saying that a lot of films today, their interpretation of romanticism is… quite boring, I think.”

FYI: Kirsten is carrying a Ralph Lauren Collection handstitched crossbody bag and a 22 oz. water bottle from Lifefactory.
