Hater gonna hate but I am a proud member of the very small Gwyneth Paltrow fan club. I love her style, I love her newsletter, and I just think she’s cool. There I said it. Now let’s talk style …
On the red carpet, Gwyneth’s style is always tasteful and flawless. She never overdoes the hair or her makeup- she lets the clothing do all the talking (and it’s always saying something good). I mean, when your BFF is Stella McCartney you have no choice but to look flawless. If I had to sum up Gwyneth’s style I would call it feminine-classic. On the street, however, Gwyneth’s falls more into the casual-comfortable (and chic) zone. Considering she has to balance work and two kids, can you blame the girl for entering the comfort lane?
The actress naturally exudes radiance and has women everywhere wondering how to get that Gwyneth glow. Her perfect complexion and killer body makes just about anything look good on her. If you want to dress like Gwyneth you first have to remember that less is more – this girl is a minimalist. Great fit is her top priority and next comes sophistication. Paltrow has perfected the art of blending timeless classics with girly romantic details. She loves pinks and blush tones but at the same time she isn’t afraid to experiment with bold colors like orange, purple, and even neon. I’ve gotta give it to her, Gwyneth is a total style chameleon but still keeps everything very true to herself.

While you are out shopping for your Paltrow inspired look definitely look to Gwynie’s favorite designers Stella McCartney, Calvin Klein, Isabel Marant, and Chanel for inspiration. If her favorites aren’t exactly in your budget, try contemporary labels like Helmut Lang, Vince, and Robert Rodriguez. You could even pop into Zara and H&M to find some comparable pieces for even less.
