Yay or Nay: Gwyneth Paltrow's Holiday Shimmer + Comment to Win!

Posted by Renee | Monday December 2, 2013

One of my favourite games to play is 'find the most ridiculous item of clothing at the thrift store'. I always gravitate towards some monstrously sequined 80's piece. Usually I wear my sequins with a touch of irony, but that being said, Gwyneth is bringing back some of the 80's shimmer and I actually kind of dig it. If you're going to go full on sparkly glamour, the holiday season is the perfect time to do it.

The one big issue with Gwenyth's 80's 'more is more' look, is that she gets lost in the holiday décor. Designer Matthew Williamson did some holiday party double duty, designing both Gwyneth's dress and the tree, so I guess that is an explanation for the holiday camouflage.

So what do you think? Does Gwyneth pull off her 80's holiday glitz? Or did she blend in with the Christmas tree a little too much? Comment below with a yay or nay and you'll be entered to win a prize pack full of makeup products worth approx. C$40, that you can use for your own holiday looks.
