Wearing a cute striped top with a matching bag in hand, Gwyneth Paltrow was spotted out and about New York City on Tuesday afternoon (July 7).

The Oscar-winning actress grabbed up lunch at the Bowery Hotel's Gemma in NYC's East Village after some time hanging out with gal pal Madonna on a hot and humid afternoon.

Meanwhile, later on this evening, Ms Paltrow is slated to pay a visit to Bloomingdale’s for a little promotional work for Estee Lauder's new fragrance, Sensuous.

Joining Gwyneth in the perfume bottle signing session will be stars including Elizabeth Hurley, Hilary Rhoda and Carolyn Murphy.
