Whether heading to Goop HQ, lunching in Italy or traversing New York, Gwyneth Paltrow is always wearing an elevated ensemble.
As the certified queen of quiet luxury, the actor and business owner has built a reputation for chicness, underpinned by her classic, wearable and incredibly refined outfits. Stepping out in New York earlier this week, Paltrow crafted a timeless look that felt streamlined yet cosy. Forgoing the wide-leg trousers she's been reaching for recently, instead, she selected a pair of black, slim-fitting trousers from Goop's fashion label in a jet-black shade which she paired with an elegant and timeless shoe.
I'm a little out of the habit of styling slim-fit trousers and jeans, and I often find that I'm stumped for a footwear pairing when I try to craft these kinds of outfits, but it looks like Paltrow has tracked down the perfect boot to finesse her new trousers.
Styling her skinny trousers with a heeled, pointed-toe boot, Paltrow elongated her silhouette and kept her look super chic. Pointed-toe boots add sharpness to an outfit in a way that few other boot styles can match, making them a perfect pairing for neatly fitting trousers. Paltrow added a cosy cream knit and a black tailored coat for a smart and polished finish.
