I think Goop comes from Gwyneth's newsletter that she puts out by that name. She said that it was her childhood nickname or something like that...

Re: Fishy & Fishsticks, I always thought that came from people calling her a cold fish, but I have no confirmation of that!

and i don't get these words either. goop, poopy, fishy, fish sticks.

No Gius, it's not from Real Estate Stalker, it is from a blog called DListed.

I believe Poopy is derived from poop which rhymes with goop. That's how they came up with that one and Fishy and Fishsticks I believe is from Gwyneth acting like a "cold fish" as another member posted here.

i've never heard of this expression "cold fish" it's pretty odd

... a soulless person

In the U.S. Sept. issue of instyle currently on newstands, there's an article dedicated to Donatella Versace's Milan apartment. It features a shot of the front of the palazzo, which is absolutely breathtaking, easily the most beautiful apartment I've ever seen.

Can someone please post scans of that article or pictures of the apartment?

colette dinnigan's paddington home is gorgeous! i love the way she has it decorated.. the mix between the dark wood on the floor and all the whites and creams in the decor is great.. it's contemporary but still delicate and warm, she's done a great job i think
