Jenny Muller from TheDailyGreen.com tried out Organic Avenue's detox diet (featured in a recent GOOP newsletter). Besides the usual complaints (does anyone really like sprouts?), she reported having lots of energy, "glowing" skin and a flatter tummy:"That little stomach pooch you tell yourself you could lose in a millisecond if you really got serious about it, yet never do? Totally gone."We'll drink some green juice to that!
Really, Marie Claire? You too!"Who doesn't break into a smile when condescending would-be lifestyle guru Gwyneth Paltrow's perfect marriage is reported to be on the rocks... ?"We don't -- that's who! (We'll refrain from mentioning the celeb slip-ups that we do enjoy.)
"I tried to take the high road. But one day I heard that something unfortunate and humiliating had happened to this person. And my reaction was deep relief and… happiness. There went the high road."(At the time, there was lots of speculation that the alleged "frenemy" was Winona.)
"The Paris-born, New York-based Dozol began the series three years ago, and each time he shoots his subject after they've taken a long, hot shower to recreate that moment where a person has lost the control of the color and texture of his or her own skin."
"Do you have a style icon?
I love Madonna--she's sexy and she takes risks. And I love Gwyneth Paltrow. In film I love Betty Davis--she's fabulous!"
G.P. is spreading the holiday cheer already with her new photo card line from Tiny Prints. A portion of the proceeds will go towards Robin Hood, a charity that funds more than 200 organizations fighting poverty in New York City.
G.P. showed off her funky fashion sense during London Fashion Week at the Burberry Prorsum show on Tuesday. As usual, she rocked some pretty fab, skyscraper shoes. This time it was the label's black leather platform boots. Got $895 burning a hole in your pocket? You can grab a suede pair at NeimanMarcus.com.
Who says GOOP's just for girls? Richard Dorment of Esquire took the "Gwyneth Challenge" (it's a trend!) for two weeks -- detoxing for 7 days, busting a move with Tracy Anderson and visiting an acupuncturist. The results?"At the end of this two-week experiment, I can report, without qualification or caveat, that I felt very, very good. I was sleeping better. I had more energy. I'd lost nine pounds. (People liked to remind me that this was all water weight and that I'd probably gain it all back, but that's just noise to me.) Revolutionary or not, Gwyneth's way worked, and if it worked for this sinner, it could work for anybody. Case closed."
"I wasn't having much fun. (I like to eat red meat and drink too much at parties. It makes me happy.) I wasn't doing well at work — maybe it's because I was drinking less caffeine, but I was more reserved in meetings and a little slower on the uptake. I was also quite a bit poorer than when I started out. I came to realize that I couldn't live the life I wanted to live while doing all the things Gwyneth Paltrow thought I should do. So for those reasons and a few more, I began slipping back to where I'd started. Now I try to eat more vegetables and spend a little more time in the gym, but I have neither the time nor the resources to commit myself full-time to feeling good. I have other things to do. Like going out to lunch."
Oh. My. Gwyneth! GOOP made a surprise appearance on the season premiere of Gossip Girl last night.
Kudos to Rebecca Dana from The Daily Beast! She attempted to live like Gwyneth and follow the tenets of GOOP (kinda like A.J. Jacobs' The Year of Living Biblically. No, we're not comparing G.P. to J.C.!). And she succeeded (sorta). Here are her final thoughts on the project:"If you look at the big picture and not the little details, it's not so hard to understand where Gwyneth’s coming from. 'Do whatever you can, on whatever scale you can,' she says. 'It’s all about the intention.'"
Gwynnie's bra! Props to G.P. for sporting a basic nude brassiere during a recent trip through the Barcelona airport. I mean, who hasn't been caught with holey socks or some other wardrobe malfunction when you're corralled at the security checkpoint? [Source: The Sun]
