GOOP Collection

I know Gwyneth Paltrow is one of those people you either love or hate, but I fall firmly in the I Heart Gwynnie camp. She is, in my mind, one of the most effortlessly chic people out there and isn't afraid to take risks fashion-wise. Obviously, I'd love to learn her secrets and apply them to my own life, so I've been a GOOP subscriber for a while. BUT what I didn't know until recently is that you can shop GOOP!

Each week GOOP does an exclusive collaboration with a brand...and you know how I feel about collabs. Considering GP is one of my style icons, I'm head over heels about this and have some definite wants from the shop...

Sarah Chloe Pinky Ring (monogrammable!)

Sarah Chloe Heartbeat Ring (so unique)

Lemlem Gigi Top (these are made of the best cotton: soft, a good weight, a good nubby texture and they smell amazing...plus stripes, so duh.)

Araks Pajamas (minimalist-chic, perfect for summer!)

I'm sure that if I buy these things, GP's sophistication will rub off on me and I'll magically attract a British musician and become famous...right? Isn't that how this works?

It's Here! Milly x Banana Republic!

I definitely had a dream about shopping this collaboration last night (totally normal). In my dream, everything was neon yellow and orange (ew) and things like neon yellow boyfriend denim shorts and skintight stretchy dresses were available. Not that there's anything wrong with these items necessarily, but they're not my style and I was SO upset in my dream.

Thankfully, the real collaboration is SO much better! I've already given you a teensy sneak peek, but there's so much more good stuff. There's even things for guys, so you and your boyfriend/man friend could have coordinating outfits!

Check out a few favorites of mine...and see the whole collection here!

Feathers Printed Skirt: This could so easily be dressed up (heels, silk blouse, great jewelry) or down (flat sandals, a fitted tee, a ponytail). Love the pattern!

Market Tote: Uh, this silver is perfection. Simple and sleek but not boring, thanks to the neon handles. It also comes in cognac, which would be great for everyday.

Pleated Patio Dress: I've already featured this dress in the sneak peek, but I love it so much it's worth another mention. It also comes in petite and tall sizes!

Eden Rock Printed Dress: Absolutely perfect for a wedding or bridal shower or any other event this summer! The print is bold, unusual and not overpowering.

Fit and Flare Dress: A perfect blank canvas to dress up with girly accessories, colorful accessories, gold accessories, leather accessories...really the options are endless with this one!

Printed Halter Top: Made for white jeans or shorts and summer nights!

Piped Shirt: A navy buttondown piped with pink? What's not to love? Such a year-round piece!

Elephant Print Short: I love a good novelty short, and this is just so cute. Since the pattern is black and white, it's definitely more versatile than a color.

Soft-wash V Tee: From the men's collection, but I'm sucked in by the "soft wash" name. Who doesn't want an extra soft tee to sleep or lounge around in? I'd personally buy the XS and pair it with the elephant shorts above for an effortlessly slouchy look.

Happy shopping! Looks like I'll be popping into my nearest BR on the way home from work tonight to try things on in person!
