The most exciting part about the Goop closet sale — one that the likes of Beyoncé, Nicole Richie, and Miranda Kerr, all donated to — isn't just the celebrity hand-me-downs, but what we've learned from the merchandise they're unloading. Like a good detective who combs the trash for clues, we're investigating the giveaway piles of some of the world's most stylish women to learn a little bit more about them. Here's what you should know.

01
Beyonce Is Clearly Saving Her Best Stuff For Blue

Beyonce Is Clearly Saving Her Best Stuff For Blue

While Beyonce is willing to part with her pair of custom-made Stuart Weitzman booties (from one of her tour costumes) for a cool $2,500, that's about all she donated to the sale, which leaves us to one conclusion: baby Blue is going to inherit one very well-stocked wardrobe from her ever-stylish mama.

Even Gwyneth Paltrow Owned Some Basic Shoes

Even Gwyneth Paltrow Owned Some Basic Shoes

While Gwyneth Paltrow is just about the last person on the planet we'd label a basic b*tch, we are a little relieved to learn that even the Goop founder and trendsetter has some basic tendencies. The proof? These pretty nondescript Salvatore Ferragamo pumps ($450) — a designer version of the platforms we sported back in the early 2000s.

How to Dress Like a Chic Parisian Woman

How to Dress Like a Chic Parisian Woman

We already knew Caroline de Maigret was one of the most fabulous French women on the planet. Now we know how to get her look — like exactly, since we can buy the pieces straight from that Parisian-chic wardrobe right here. No surprises that that includes a limited-edition hand-painted Chanel sweatshirt by Karl Lagerfeld ($1,100), but if you're looking for for the building blocks of a great closet, you could just start with her white Blk denim jeans ($195).

Gwyneth Is Also So Over the Wedge Sneaker

Gwyneth Is Also So Over the Wedge Sneaker

Like Isabel Marant herself, Gwyneth Paltrow is, too, apparently so over the wedge sneaker — since hers are clearly up for grabs ($150). Though, we won't judge you if you still want a pair, especially if they're Gwyneth's hand-me-downs.

05
Nicole Richie Had These In Her Closet?!

Nicole Richie Had These In Her Closet?!

More edgy-punk than princess, we were nearly dumbfounded when we saw these mint-green Christian Louboutin heels ($500) for sale with "donated by Nicole Richie" written below them. But we also appreciate the the style setter has gone through a few fashionable evolutions, so if ridding her closet of these is part of another one, we fully support her.
