And it was all Yellow: Gwyneth Paltrow pays a fashion tribute to husband Chris Martin's hit song at her recipe book signing

The good wife: Gwyneth Paltrow paid tribute to husband Chris Martin's song Yellow in a pretty satin dress at a signing for her cook book in Los Angeles yesterday


It was the breakthrough song that shot Coldplay to fame and fortune as Chris Martin crooned about unrequited love.

So it was only fitting that the love of his life should pay tribute to her pop star husband by wearing the colour that put him on the music map.

Gwyneth Paltrow wore a pretty yellow satin dress as she held a signing for her new recipe book in Los Angeles yesterday.


The below-the-knee dress, which she teamed with Rachel Roy shoes, clung to her curves as she posed for the cameras at the Williams-Sonoma kitchenware store in Beverly Hills.

The book is called My Father's Daughter: Delicious, Easy Recipes Celebrating Family & Togetherness.

It includes her favourite family recipes and she shares personal stories of her father Bruce, who died in 2002 and inspired her to cook.

Canary chic: The dress clung to Gwyneth's slender figure and the bright colour suited her skin tone and blonde hair


Gwyneth also explained why cooking is really important to her and said: 'I think the importance of eating together as a family and making homemade food that is nourishing and good for you.

'My dad used to really talk to us when we ate dinner and see what we thought about things, and now I use that opportunity to do the same.'

She spent two hours signing books and meeting fans who had patiently queued in the store to meet her.

Last week, she appeared on US chat show Rachael Ray, she said she encourages her children to get involved in the kitchen too.

The 38-year-old also revealed that her young son Moses could be a budding chef in the making.

She said: 'My five-year-old can crack an egg like nobody’s business. You could give him a dozen eggs. It’s like… no shell in there, it’s perfect, clean and perfect every time.'

Coldplay had their first hit song with Yellow on 2000, two years before front man Martin met the Oscar-winner.

It appeared on their debut album Parachutes and also gave the band their first top ten hit in the UK and the US.
