Style Icon - Sarah Jessica Parker. Stripes and Prints.

I don't think I have posted about SJP since the beginning of December when she seemed to have a particularly manic few weeks of nights out in New York City, so I was pleased to see her back on the red carpet and on the arm of husband Matthew Broderick for a night out to the premiere of new Broadway show "Smash".


Despite not actually starring in the show herself, SJP was the evenings main attraction wearing a Tory Burch sequin dress from her S/S 12 collection and with all my recent talk of breton stripes and leopard print, I was pleased to see Sarah Jessica putting a new spin on my latest print obsession for evening, by teaming her wavy, navy, white and taupe striped dress with a cute leopard print bag. 
Just like her alter ego, Carrie Bradshaw, if there are fashion boundaries to be pushed and unwritten style rules to be broken, we can always rely on her to test the fashion waters for us, but always in an age appropriate manner.

  6. I like the blazer and the print of the dress! However, I'm not sure about the length of the dress in combination with those shoes (not my thing, I guess) x

  8. SJP could wear a bin liner, add a belt & look stylish, she is just cool! Isnt she ? I love the way in SATC she never followed rules I am not a huge designer fan ( don't have the funds apart from anything else ) but wait a few years and its vintage and far cheaper lol! Her signature style is by wearing as you said something off the catwalk and making it her own! Great article !

  9. I love the dress! I also love stripes with prints. She has really made this work but it is true she would probably look good no matter what she wore!
