Goop Logo I Made My Own, DIY Style. Thanks for the Inspiration Gwyneth!
Once a week or so, Gwyneth Paltrow sends me the Goop letter from the Goop offices at 7 World Trade Center, New York, NY. That’s my first clue she’s no ordinary mommy blogger – my address is Sunroom in the Back of My House, Half a Block Down From That Crackhouse.
This is the dress you save up for because it never goes out of style? Honey, by the time I save up enough money for even a mere 32 inches of Chanel dress, I am anticipating I’ll either be as big as a house and/or have thigh wrinkles. I could see passing it on to my daughter, she could wear it all the way from preschool to sometime in Jr. High when her father will order her to “Put some clothes on, this ain’t the beach!”
I really do love the boots, I am going to go down to Payless and HomeDepot and see if I can’t make myself some for $25. Heck, maybe I’ll make several pairs and sell them at the flea market as Geuninesque Gucci Gear as shown by Gwyneth in Goop. Although I can’t really see anyone at our flea market having Gwynnie style aspirations; I’d be surprised if her whole mailing list isn’t made up of bloggers looking for something easy to mock.

Hey , I can let you borrow my Bedazzler to get started on the boots if you like.
I think I will require some sort of upholstery gun.
I am not convinced that a dress that barely covers one’s birth canal is appropriate for a mother in her 30s.
I agree with MadFab. I think that dress is too young even for Gweneth.
First off: that is not a dress, that is a shirt. A Chanel shirt that Gwynnie is wearing as a dress. Because she can, that is what being a celeb is all about.
Second: those “boots” frighten me, they resemble shooties and shooties should be worn only as Halloween costume.
How on earth do you pick up after the kids and not show any goodies in that thing??
Her inner aspect is far and away more costly than mine, which is generally nourished by a nice cab merlot, a bowl of chips and a mostly naked man.
Hey, I recognize those boots! They were worn by Prince during the Purple Rain concert tour in ’84. I have that eye for detail.
I have that same SHIRT in my closet.
