Star Style

Have you ever ogled the outfits of the superstars and divas of the celebrity world and wished you could have their style and look super cool?

This month we take a closer look at the star style of Hollywood actress Gwyneth Paltrow and give you some fab fashion tips on how to achieve her look.

Style Profile: Gwyneth Paltrow

Gwyneth has graced many front covers of famous fashion magazines and has starred in a myriad of movies, recently donning a "fat suit" in the controversial comedy "Shallow Hal".

In the last few years, she has been romantically linked to Hollywood hunks including Brad Pitt and Ben Affleck.

She has been likened as the modern day Grace Kelly and exudes sheer elegance and beauty.

From day to night, Gwyneth looks effortlessly gorgeous and has a style that is classical and minimal. She is the daytime denim queen, and at special events, she steals the limelight. Gwyneth wowed movie stars and guests at the 1999 Oscars, when she wore a pink chiffon ball gown.

This gal picks a winner every time and it's simply because she knows what she likes and can carry it off in style.

For that ultimate Gwyneth day-look, go for "distressed" fitted low rider denim jeans, team with a tailored blazer, a leather beret and a pair of dark sunglasses and you have an outfit that is classical and comfortable.

For the glam factor, a pair of loose fitting pants, a glitzy camisole neck top and flashy long earrings teamed with a pair of high heeled shoes is sexy and a guaranteed show stopper.

Hot Tip

Gwyneth's outfits are always great because she opts for simple cuts, and "block" colours to emphasise her petite frame. She never goes without a quirky handbag, and does not "spoil" an outfit by wearing too much jewellery. This star has often been seen in colours like camel, brown, baby pink, aqua, black and grey.

Her blonde locks are often worn straight, and on some occasions she sweeps her hair up in a loose chignon that is elegant for an evening look.

Make up wise, this beauty opts for neutral tones and often wears a raspberry red lipstick.
