Sabrina Carpenter Won't Fall for The Row's $690 Flip-Flops—Her $4 Pair Does the Trick
On July 14, Sabrina Carpenter shared her first Instagram-worthy photo dump of the month with her 48 million followers. Like famous peers Kendall Jenner and Hailey Bieber, her vacation-season carousel included snaps of recent trips abroad. (Destinations: Paris and London, in Carpenter's case). Unlike other celebrities, however, the Grammy winner apparently packed $4 Old Navy flip-flops instead of The Row's $690 rubber slides for her travels.
In the thirteenth photo, Carpenter propped her legs up on a wall (a beneficial yoga pose, BTW), simultaneously modeling her new Old Navy find. (There was no mistaking the flip-flop's for another brand's: She tagged the retailer directly.) Her photos doubled down on the polka-dot trend too, showing the black thongs with white polka-dots in one photo and a dotted manicure in another. She accessorized the Old Navy shoes with a spiral, of-the-moment anklet, another craze co-signed by Bieber, Kylie Jenner, Gigi Hadid, and more. (Fans believe the ankle bracelet is actually a $10 mosquito repellant.)

Why did she tag Old Navy, you ask? As a longtime Carpenter, I know she frequently takes cues from Taylor Swift's big book of Easter eggs. Seeing as she's never publicly worn Old Navy before, perhaps the post is teasing an upcoming collab with chief creative officer, Zac Posen. Old Navy's sister label, Gap, has dressed It girls like Emily Ratajkowski, Lila Moss, and Laura Harrier in recent months, so, teaming up with Carpenter wouldn't be too far-fetched. Of course, there could be a simpler explanation: the singer was just proud of her under-$5 summer shoe find.
Old Navy rumors aside, Carpenter has been pro-polka-dot since early 2024, when the revival was just starting to pick up speed. In her "Taste" music video, she wore a black-and-white bubble skirt and the matching halter top to slay her (fictional) ex-boyfriend. Together, the Blondita two-piece cost $140.

On the Short n' Sweet tour, her stylist, Jared Ellner partnered with Victoria's Secret to create her lingerie-inspired costumes, including a polka-dotted bodysuit she wore at the Paris show in March.
It's rare for a Carpenter-approved piece to be as inexpensive as her Old Navy flip-flops, so get your hands on them while you still can. I've already bought two pairs.

Gwyneth Paltrow's Love Life is Hollywood History
Gwyneth Paltrow has long been an it girl: It girl of the '90s, it girl of health and wellness, and now, even her daughter is following in her footsteps, having shined last year as the it girl of the Les Bals de Debutantes in Paris. She's starred in some of our favorite films, has been a part of some of our favorite pop culture moments, and has been romantically linked to some of the most famous faces in Hollywood. Here, a look at the relationship history of Gwyneth Paltrow. Gwyneth Paltrow and Robert Sean Leonard (1994) Though a brief romance, nothing says 90s like Gwyneth Paltrow and Robert Sean Leonard, who was on the rise thanks to his lead role in 1989's Dead Poets Society. The actor has spoken briefly about Paltrow and his romance with the actress over the years, but only with fondness for both her and her career. 'I remember watching Gwyneth Paltrow deliver her Oscar acceptance speech in floods of tears,' he told Metro back in 2013 about his discomfort at major industry events of the sort. 'My God, how open. The poor girl was just so intimate with these unnamed millions of people.' Gwyneth Paltrow and Brad Pitt (1994—1997) Talk about a '90s supercouple! This couple was linked for quite some time, and Brad even got down on one knee before they called it quits. Since their 90s romance, Paltrow has opened up about their love story, telling Alex Cooper on the Call Her Daddy podcast back in 2023, "There were a number of things that had happened, he was nine years older than me so he was far more…he knew what he wanted, he was ready to do it and I was kind of all over the place, so it was really one of those difficult things, where I felt like, 'Oh my God, not only am I not ready, I'm not living up to the standards again.' It was a familiar refrain I felt about myself." Gwyneth Paltrow and Ben Affleck (1997—2000) Another 90s supercouple was Paltrow and Ben Affleck, who was a major Hollywood player at the time thanks to his Good Will Hunting (1997) success. The actress, however, revealed that though her parents loved him, they accepted things once the two called it quits. 'I think they appreciated how he's super intelligent, and he's really talented and funny, but he wasn't in a good place in his life to have a girlfriend,' the actress revealed of their romance to Howard Stern in 2015. 'They loved him, but they were okay with us not being together.' Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin (married from 2003—2014) Perhaps Paltrow's most notable relationship was that with Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, with whom she shares her two children, Apple and Moses. 'We were close, though we had never fully settled into being a couple. We just didn't quite fit together. There was always a bit of unease and unrest. But man, did we love our children,' Paltrow wrote in an essay for British Vogue. 'Between the day that I knew and the day we finally relented to the truth, we tried everything. We did not want to fail. We didn't want to let anyone down. We desperately didn't want to hurt our children. We didn't want to lose our family.' Today, Paltrow and Martin enjoy a harmonious co-parent relationship since their divorce. Brad Falchuck (married 2018—present) Paltrow tied the knot with TV producer Brad Falchuk in 2018 after meeting back in 2014, and since then, the couple has enjoyed a happy and loving relationship. 'He has things that were reminiscent of my dad. It's like blue-eyed, Jewish, TV writer, with a heart of gold and a great sense of humor,' Paltrow told PEOPLE in 2023. 'I finally chose my dad.'

Noel Gallagher's One-of-a-Kind Jaguar MKII Convertible Finds a Buyer
Noel Gallagher's One-of-a-Kind Jaguar MKII Convertible Finds a Buyer originally appeared on Autoblog. Few classic cars flaunt British suave as well as a Jaguar. But the 1967 Jaguar MKII Convertible owned by Oasis guitarist Noel Gallagher takes things to the next level, thanks to its story and unique character. While Jaguar's recent sales have struggled to keep pace in a changing market, this car reminds us of the marque's timeless appeal. Commissioned in the 1990s by Gallagher himself, it blends the elegance of 1960s Jaguar design with tasteful rock and roll upgrades. Today, this rare convertible is under offer, with a buyer's bid accepted and the sale moving forward. A Rock Star's Custom Dream Car Back in the mid-90s, when Oasis was dominating the music scene, Gallagher decided it was time to get behind the wheel himself. Despite not having a driver's license at the time, he still craved a car tailored to his needs. So he consulted with Jaguar specialist Vicarage to transform a Jaguar MKII sedan from 1967 — the same year he was born — into a one-of-a-kind convertible. The two-year project involved removing the rear doors and lengthening the front doors, turning the four-door sedan into a sleek two-door convertible. Gallagher requested modern touches like a fully electric folding roof, power steering, electric windows, and an automatic transmission, making the car much easier and more comfortable to drive than the typical MKII. Ironically, Gallagher never took the car out for a spin himself. Instead, this wife did once in a blue moon. Stored Away But Never Forgotten Most of its life, this Jaguar was carefully stored away, but it still caught the public eye now and then. It appeared in a music video for Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds, driven by actor Matt Smith, best known for his role on Doctor Who. Then, in 2022, Jaguar Land Rover Classic acquired the car and showcased it during Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee celebrations, with iconic model Twiggy riding in the back seat. From music video star to royal celebration guest, these appearances helped cement the car's status as more than just a collector's piece, but as a British cultural icon, too. Quintessentially British Finished in glossy black paint with a rich red leather interior and chrome wire wheels, this Jaguar is one of the poshest cars money can buy. And thanks to its origins as a sedan, it still comfortably seats four adults along with their luggage. Noel Gallagher's Jaguar isn't just another low-mileage garage queen; it's a symbol of a moment in British history, bridging '90s rock royalty and royal tradition. Now that it's under offer, this one-of-a-kind MKII Convertible is ready to continue its story with a new owner who will appreciate its unique heritage. Noel Gallagher's One-of-a-Kind Jaguar MKII Convertible Finds a Buyer first appeared on Autoblog on Aug 10, 2025 This story was originally reported by Autoblog on Aug 10, 2025, where it first appeared.
