A Few of GP's Favourite Things

In case GOOP wasn't enough (and I am actually a fan lest my snide tone convey otherwise) GP has Oprahfied herself and graced us with a list of things she can't live without.  Here are some of them:

Seasonal Flowers - she likes single-variety posies, I have to agree.  Am not one for arrangements and don't get me started on the ubiquitous filler Baby's Breath!

Charles Edward Star Lanterns - these I do like, I even like her description of where they are in her home, despite it being a little corny - "I hung three of these at different levels in the stair hall so that we could pass them on our way up to bed at night".

Juxtaposed Religion Shelf - the shelf itself is pretty funky and of course Gwyneth being Gwyneth had to add, "built-in slots hold holy books...all at the same level, which is how I like to think about religion".  Yawn.

Cloth-bound Penguin Classics - now these I love!  Have bought them before as gifts and they're beautiful.

YUBZ Retro Handset - perhaps not the most portable handset but certainly very cool.

  1. I do honestly think Gwennie is genuinely sincere about what she puts forward as useful & helpful to we mortals, i'm just not a fan, her style is not even consistently off centre or quirky, it's like she's seen something in a magazines & can't quiet execute a replica on her own. Got to say, she does try, hard, love Posie

  2. I like the bookshelf, in theory. Not sure about in practice.
    Well it's nice to see that GP is as human as the rest of us... I'm not exactly a fan, but there's something about her that appeals to me.

  3. Lol! Loved your comments! Despite myself, I kind of like her selections. I am not usually a GP fan and her interiors/lifestyle tastes are not my favourites but give me her fashion choices any day of the week!
