Gwyneth Paltrow’s: I really love my Givenchy Gladiators
Posted on April 11th, 2008 by shoesense under Celebrity Shoe Style, Givenchy Shoes, I really love my shoeI don’t know if she REALLY REALLY loves them, but how else would you explain her wearing them on two occasions with starkly different results?
Here she is in London, looking chic and appropriate for some event involving British royalty, and giving her outfit a bit of an edge with the über-buckled-strapped-and-grommetted Givenchy gladiator bootie-sandals (sandies? boondals?):
(See Shoebunny’s website for more detailed photos).
And then, disaster strikes: a dowdy dress that does nothing for her lovely figure with an oddly hanging bow, and the gladi-bootie-sandals, cutting into the pale flesh of her stems and making her look like she’s an unwilling participant in bondage:
You can buy a similar (though not identical) style of Givenchy gladiator at Shopbop for, oh, about $1000:

…Just promise me you’ll learn from Gwyneth’s mistake and you’ll wear them wisely!
