Stuck in Goop

Recipe for good living, The Dao of Gwyneth. Two scoops of goop, a pinch of class and a whole lot of “A” grade style.

To say that “A”- list celebrities become idols and the model or blueprint for some peoples lives, lifestyles and fashion, by means of that unwritten “imitation is the sincerest form of flattery” code, is an understatement. Here’s a lady who got typecast as a medieval damsel in distress to underrated heroine and supporting lead actress, that has gathered worldwide cult following status. Just take a look at her, with the frame of a European catwalk diva, and a golden “blond do” that appears as if the rays of the sun were somehow absorbed from the sky itself and emanated an iridescent radiant glow of life energy which when teamed up with a face of both starlet and big-screen goddess, fits the profile of; a) what women wish to be more like, and, b) what guys are looking for, by way of worldly intelligence, sophistication and beauty reflective in a female form.

Who would have thought that her talents spanned skills involving “guru-ism”.

At first the name sounds like some “Nickelodeon” bi product of the 90’s which no-one buys children but they end with somehow. “GOOP” What is that a rival perfume company to “JOOP”? Found in the ghettos of Gangster Rap America. No it is neither, what it is, is an on point well laid out, FLASH based scrolling frames style web-page with in depth, concise, succinct articles and informative passages on everything from how to make your own 5 star gourmet cuisine in 15 minutes or less to what to play at a house party that keeps all revellers “groove” move from heart to makeshift dance floor somewhere between the kitchen and the laundry. Not forgetting that in this spam free sandwich of style done the Paltrow way, her dao is extended to display how to’s of the latest fashion flavours mixed with personal favourites. But that is not to say that digesting what is on offer is going to go straight to the hips, as  the “hitch-hikers guide” to the world of Gwyneth  with write-ups on places she has been, seen and savoured, to provide a worldwide workout.

With attention to detail obviously a focus, as clearly seen in her “PRADA” meets “Bohemia” let us “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” , and gondola up the Riviera dressed in “Chanel” with backpacks, hiking boots and hand drawn road map of the countryside passed from a local to relative to another relative to another local and then somehow landed in her hands. Having thoroughly inspected her website, got GOOPed and added another positive, pro-active accolade to her long list of credible and incredible achievements, I recommend all netizens to “get the scoop from GOOP”. As it sees Mz. Gwyneth Paltrow move from “Se7en” deadly sins to six degrees of separation passing through “Sliding Doors” dressed in controversial fashion, actress turned guru on the finer things in life has indeed raised the bar whilst still leaving readers stuck in “GOOP”.
