Ask 'Country Strong' Stars Gwyneth Paltrow and Tim McGraw a Question - The Moviefone Blog

I'm so excited to see her on Conan. I feel like it's always a good time. I'd love it for the boys to go back on Conan. Twould be great. :)

Gwyn and Conan have a good connection and she puts him at ease so he's able to ask The good questions and get really good feedback. I can't wait. :):)

Chris wrote a song for Country Strong!

It's a nice song. It does sound a bit like Coldplay if you take away the country twang, lol.

Cozy Shoes

 

I don’t know how it is where all of you are, but I am freezing my ass off. I will be relying heavily on my cozy winter boots to get me through to spring, however far off it may seem. Here are some of my favorites.

 

Love,

gp

 

mou

 

 

I’ve been a big fan of mou, Shelley Tichborne’s 8 year-old line of cozy footwear, for a few years now. My kids and I all have pairs of their hand-stitched Eskimo boots and I’m loving their shaggier models, like this pair that I bought a few months ago.

 

 

Antelope Cowboy boot, £345

 

 

Kids Mini Eskimo Boot, £100

 

No. 6

 

 

 

8” Lace Up Shearling Leather Boot - $420

 

Karin Bereson and Morgan Yakus, owners and founders of the vintage-inspired boutique No. 6, reinvented the clog and brought it back to stay. I fell for their shearling lined boots that you can roll down to show some more of the lining, but their lined lace ups are near perfection.

 

Celtic Sheepskin Company

 

 

Here’s a cute variation of the UGG boot, made by the Celtic Sheepskin Company in Newquay, England.

 

 

 

Side Tie Ribbon Boots £135

 

Stella McCartney

 

 

 

Over-the-knee faux-suede boot - $625

 

 

Stella McCartney has made a much needed animal-friendly and cool cozy boot, in an otherwise empty market. I have these over-the-knee boots and wear them over leggings or jeans.

 

Nine West

 

 

A cute short bootie from the Nine West Vintage America collection.

 

 

 

Kybele - $129

 

Quoddy + J.Crew

 

 

 

Quoddy tweed and leather grizzly boots - $390

 

 

J.Crew and Quoddy, the Maine-based, family-owned purveyor of handsewn shoes, have collaborated on one of Quoddy's signature styles this year—this tweed and leather boot that I just couldn’t resist. Quoddy also have several other unisex styles available on their site, for the well-executed androgynous look…

 

Topshop

 

 

Topshop, as usual, has come through with some great, affordable on-trend booties for the winter—a great alternative to my Burberry Prorsum pair for $1,095.

 

 

 

AMORE Shearling Ankle Boots - $190

 

 

 

 

Burberry Prorsum - $1,095

 

Jimmy Choo + UGG

 

 

 

Mandah - $795

 

 

Jimmy Choo and UGG have collaborated this year to spruce up the classic UGG. This is my favorite style from the group.

 

L.L. Bean

 

 

The L.L. Bean Boot : simply put, the classic.

 

 

 

10” Shearling Lined - $149

 

Opening Ceremony

 

 

 

Opening Ceremony, Lara Fur, On Sale for - $378

 

 

Opening Ceremony’s w30 bumper bootie is over-the-top, in the best sense of the expression.

Sorry, copy/paste didn't work, you can't see the pictures. But that was the new Goop.

 

In which Gwyneth is promoting shoes with fur :(

 

I loved her, but I never expecter her to promote fur :angry:

Dude, I thought she was anti-fur herself? Unless the fur is faux??

Dude, I thought she was anti-fur herself? Unless the fur is faux??

 

I thought so too. But this fur is real, I checked it on the website.

Dude, I thought she was anti-fur herself? Unless the fur is faux??

 

Fishie?

 

Anti Fur?

 

 

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

 

 

There is nothing a svelte waspy elitist ice queen loves more than wearing the skins of cute little animals.

 

CIP: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/picturegalleries/celebritynews/2574341/Gwyneth-Paltrow-in-fur-row-with-animal-activists.html

:(

 

I always loved her. Now I'm not so sure about that anymore.

 

Sorry for her fans. But I hate fur. And I hate it when famous people with a lot of influence start promoting that kind of cruelty. She could have used her celebrity status to promote fake fur, that would have been a lovely thing to do. Not this, this is a big mistake.

Agreed

 

 

Fur didnt used to bother me,

 

but now its just....

 

 

because I mean.... its like

 

I think we have evolved past that

 

where we dont NEED to wear animal skin so blatently to keep warm like back in the day

 

now its really more a posh poncey fashion statement as well as a show of wealth and status.

 

Even fake fur.

 

I dont think its fashionable

 

I think it looks ratty and trashy and gross

 

not fashionable at all. and like I said, with all the innovations and shit at our disposal... its just not necessary.

 

 

With all of this said I am not at all surprised to see her plugging fur.

 

Shes gotten called on the carpet before for this apparently.

 

God no wonder Chris hates Goop

 

trash talking about Winona Ryder

Claiming that Shampoo causes cancer

promoting not only overpriced apparel, but apparel clad in animal fur

 

very real animal fur...

 

 

 

I wouldnt care so much if peoples perception of Chris wasnt so directly affected by perception of this vapid twit.

I can't believe she put "Uggs" type shoes on Goop.:o baaah

I don't think it's real fur though. I don't mind really fake fur though.

I don't think it's real fur though. I don't mind really fake fur though.

 

It's real :(

 

I'm sorry, I don't want to provoke Gwyneth's fans. I was one of them. But I just can't like her anymore if she promotes fur.

Yeah, I don't like real fur :(

Yeah, I don't like real fur :(

 

Sorry, off topic, but I'm curious about the Ghana and Rwanda volunteer projects you mention in your signature. Sounds very interesting, I've send you a message about it!

Now I feel guilty...I love UGGS. :disappointed:

I guess I never really thought of them as animal fur before. :bigcry:

I have some and they're made with lambswool, but we are all wearing pullovers aren't we? As for sheepskin, this is leather, aren't you people wearing leather shoes sometimes?

Wool and fur isn't the same! :facepalm:

 

Neither is fur and leather as leather is (except in extreme cases) a byproduct of the meat industry.
