Inside Sarah Jessica Parker’s fabulous shoe collection, on and off screen: from her SJP brand to Chanel, Roger Vivier and Manolo Blahnik on Sex and the City, and Aquazurra on And Just Like That
- Sarah Jessica Parker’s SJP Collection shoe brand just opened its flagship branch in New York, located a stone’s throw away from Carrie Bradshaw’s flat on Sex and the City
- She’s paired her own brand with Gucci garments, but also rocked chic Louboutins at the 2013 Met Gala, Saint Laurent Liya Sandals on And Just Like That, and throwback Chanel ankle booties
Hear the name “Carrie Bradshaw” and you’ll surely think of one thing: shoes! But actress Sarah Jessica Parker’s long-time love of footwear goes well beyond her work with Sex and the City. Her passion is embedded into her everyday life and business through her eponymous shoe brand, SJP Collection.
The actress-turned-entrepreneur founded SJP Collection in 2014 and expanded her enterprise with outposts in Dubai, Las Vegas and Edmonton, Canada, as well as its online store.
It was only going to be a matter of time before the style icon added a New York branch to her list, with the Big Apple holding a special place in her heart, of course.
On February 4, Parker attended the opening of her flagship SJP Collection shoe store on New York City’s Bleecker Street (just down the road from her SATC character’s flat) as she mingled with customers at the event.
These days, it’s hardly surprising to hear that Parker’s wardrobe is filled with mainly shoes from her own collection. Here’s a peek into her most stylish shoes worn over the years …
