Remember the cutout trend that was huge for fall and winter? We saw everyone from Miley Cyrus to Kim Kardashian rock the sexy look everywhere from running daily errands in Los Angeles to the set of Jay Leno’s “Tonight Show.” Well, we loved the look then – and gave you star secrets to make the look work well into winter’s frigid temperatures – and we’re happy to report that the quirky style is making its way into the warmer months as well! On a recent trip to London to promote her latest film, “Country Strong,” one of our favorite blonde beauties, Gwyneth Paltrow proved that cutouts are coming back with a vengeance once the weather warms up. Check out her fierce and flattering cutout stilettos below, and find out how to steal her star style on a budget!

At a friend’s birthday bash across the pond, Gwyneth Paltrow’s style was full-blown Spring 2011. Although she was wearing several trends at once (a style choice we typically advise against,) she makes everything work together beautifully. The muted gray color of her party dress, and its one-shoulder style are both super on-trend for the upcoming season, but her fashion piet de resistance was her sexy and daring Camilla Skovgaard Claw Booties, featuring bold cutouts in the shape of animal claws. This risky fashion statement proves that cutouts are coming back with a twist, and that even the most demure fashionistas can experiment with the look!
The reason why these pieces work so well together, even though they are both trendy, is thanks to Gwyneth’s neutral color palate from head to fashionable toe. The one-shoulder dress is a perfect shade of quiet gray, while her fierce heels remain somewhat muted in fleshy taupe. Remember to keep trendy pieces flattering in hushed colors rather than bold neons or prints, especially when wearing multiple fads together. And just because these Camilla Skovgaard creations are well over $300 doesn’t mean we can get the same great style for less. Come spring, we’ll see different versions of cutout heels at every price point!
