And while Paltrow’s red carpet moments are always stellar, it was refreshing to see the star let her hair down while on the Amalfi Coast. Paltrow’s go-to uniform of head-to-toe white popped against her lush surroundings, as did her choice of outer layer: an army green jacket.
It’s a piece that has been in the news lately for other reasons. But while Melania Trump’s Zara version was emblazoned with a questionable message, Paltrow kept things subtle with a classic (but unexpected in this context) monogram on her right hip. The fitted silhouette also lent her look an elevated touch.
The simple white tee and fluid ankle-grazing trousers had an effortless, elongating effect, while coordinated Alexander McQueen sneakers fashionably grounded the look. And the Top Gun-esque accents—aviator shades and an oversize tote—were classic Paltrow, and ideal inspiration for a Fourth of July getaway.
