Gwyneth Paltrow nails red carpet dressing

Two years ago Gwyneth Paltrow wowed everyone with a post-pregnancy new look as she took to the red carpet to promote Iron Man. Now she's back on the premiere circuit thanks to the film's second instalment and, judging by her sartorial choices this week, her status as style-setter shows no sign of waning.

You can always count on Gwyneth to nail the balance between glamorous and cool, toughening up pretty dresses with chunky shoes or boots, or even ditching the dresse altogether. She makes the tricky job of red carpet dressing look easy.

This week we loved her summery chic combination of Giorgio Armani white blazer and tailored shorts, not to mention her perfectly simple shift dress by Victoria Beckham. And as for the mettalic dress that she chose to sport at a benefit in New York last night, we want one now.
