It’s impossible not to love Sarah Jessica Parker as the quirky Carrie Bradshaw in Sex and the City, and lucky for us, the actress emulates the same sense of style in real life. Best known for her role as the columnist living the big life in New York, it’s safe to say Parker has grown into a style icon over the years, as she has consistently translated Carrie’s care-free outfits into real life.
And care-free is just one way to describe the actress’ personal sense of style. Parker balances off-beat silhouettes with classic pieces, all while mixing and matching in a way that’s all her own. For instance, there may only be a select few who can rock a pink blazer over a blue bubble dress, or bright turquoise tights with a whimsical frock, but Parker does so with ease and charm.
We rounded up our favorite Sarah Jessica Parker looks and picked out some look-alike pieces for your viewing (and buying) pleasure. Take note of Parker’s mix-and-match abilities, and be inspired to pair pieces you wouldn’t normally otherwise.
