Sarah Jessica Parker says she dresses for her age.
The 46-year-old actress insists she’s a “realist” about how she looks and isn’t worried about getting older.
The mother-of=three said: “I try to dress appropriately for my age and I’m a realist about what I look like. But if those physical things were my insecurities I’d be thrilled. What wonderful problems.
“My insecurities are more substantial than that. I worry first and foremost about my children and their health. My husband, and his. I worry about what work opportunities will come up. My own creative satisfaction. How will I pursue things and will the work be good?”
The ‘Sex and the City’ actress also said she doesn’t feel the need to have Botox and is hoping the film industry is starting to look down on it.
She told Stella magazine: “There are women [in television and in Hollywood] who feel that Botox is necessary, but more and more I don’t think it is important for the industry.
“People want to make movies that are successful, and sometimes they include women and sometimes they don’t. I think it’s less and less about exterior. At least I hope so.”

Oscar de la Renta has revealed that he’s a huge fan of SATC star Sarah Jessica Parker and loves that she likes to wear his designs.
SJP is pretty much everyone’s style icon since playing the iconic Carrie Bradshaw for so many years, so we can imagine it’s a pretty great feeling to see her wearing your designs – and she loves Oscar de la Renta.
It’s not only SJP who’s bewitched by Oscar’s feminine, glamorous designs, as other celebrities such as Gisele Bundchen, Jessica Biel and Anne Hathaway all love the brand. But Sarah Jessica seems to have a special place in the designer’s heart.
The designer gushed to E! News: “Well, I love Sarah Jessica [Parker], because she is a friend for a long time. Sarah Jessica is like Diane [Von Furstenberg]; she is very much the spirit of New York, she is the New York girl. I love her.”
Oscar is also a big fan of fellow designer Diane Von Furstenberg, whose show he attended at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week this week.
He said: “I love Diane. We have been friends forever. I have a tremendous admiration for Diane. I came for her because she is the spirit of the 21st Century. Diane is all about beauty, all about creativity, femininity and the aura of femininity.”
What a nice man. Oscar de la Renta seems to like absolutely everyone.

SJP visited the Late Show studios in NYC wearing a bold colour-blocked outfit of scarlet and pink. What a clever girl
As the Film Festivals and premières continue, we’re seeing an awful lot of sweet red-carpet and party looks.
Sarah Jessica Parker is firmly back on our style radar as we spotted her in New York City outside the studios for David Letterman’s “Late Show” – and she’s succeeded in the art-of colour blocking where Cheryl Cole had previously failed, teaming a scarlet blouse with high-waisted magenta trousers. Sound horrible? Maybe, but it really works. SJP 4eva.
At the premiere for the new film Contagion, the French actress Marion Cotillard looked dazzlingly beautiful with a braided up-do, smoky eye make-up and a floor-length sheer layered black gown. A beautiful red-carpet look.
Meanwhile, in London the legendary Italian fashion house Missoni were throwing a big party for the launch of a new pop-up store – and plenty of celebrities were out to show their love for the iconic knitwear company. Poppy Delevigne worked a bohemian, rock and roll look in a sleeveless leather jacket with a floaty blouse and denim hot-pants while the supermodel Doutzen Kroes naughtily broke the Missoni dress code in a clinging black Stella McCartney dress.
The true star of the Missoni party, however, was Elizabeth Olsen, the little sister of fashion’s favourite twins. She looked cute as a button in a Missoni-knit black shift dress with a white collar for a retro look. Is she going to overtake Ashley and Mary-Kate in the style stakes? Watch this space..
To see who we’ve been spotting, check out the gallery above.

At the after party for Sex and The City 2's premiere, SJP looked sexy and seventies in a peacock-blue maxi
Many well-dressed celebrities come and go without us particularly noticing, but we do certainly have at least one true style icon for our generation: Sarah Jessica Parker (or Carrie Bradshaw if you refuse to believe the Sex and the City character isn’t actually a real person).
I don’t know about you, but the character of Carrie Bradshaw has been there for me in the good times and the bad with her oversized corsages and couture McQueen. And SJP is just as chic and stylish in real life as she is on the screen. Her trademark wavy hair, smoky eye make-up, diminutive frame and penchant for Vivienne Westwood have made her one of the red carpet’s most-loved celebs – it’s no wonder her wardrobe is so full of couture. If we were Lagerfeld we’d give her everything we’d ever designed.
We’ve noticed that the star has a bit of a thing for vintage-look maxi dresses recently. Maybe it’s her passion for Halston Heritage or just that the look is in this season, but SJP definitely has got a flair for working the high-glamour, Jerry Hall 1970s look. We’re pretty much obsessed with the outfit she rocked for Cannes this May: a purple high-necked maxi dress with a train, and a lace neckline. J’adore.
Check out the gallery for our favourite Sarah Jessica Parker looks.

Sarah Jessica Parker has revealed that one of her top style icons is our very own Kate Middleton, now the Duchess of Cambridge. When SJP was asked to name her favourite style icons, the I Don’t Know How She Does It actress replied: “So many. Ingrid Bergman & the way Kate Moss dresses & the Duchess of Cambridge. It seems that K-Middy is having just as much an effect on the United States’ wardrobes as she is on ours!
As we all know, Sarah Jessica is a total style icon in her own right after playing Carrie Bradshaw in Sex and the City. When asked what her favourite Carrie fashion moment was, she replied: “The tutu in Paris. It was a real tutu & I’m sure it was from the Royal Ballet.”
The actress is always a familiar face at London Fashion Week because, as we all know, she loves the British fashion industry for its quirks. However, perhaps she’ll stay at home this year as she thinks that the American fashion industry is getting more daring. She said: “British fashion is more risky but we have some emerging American designers that seem inspired in that direction.”
And will SJP, freshly inspired by Kate Middleton, ever venture into fashion design again? “Definitely if I can figure out what it is I want to do.” Watch this space.

Sarah Jessica Parker and Halston have reportedly ended their working relationship.
The ‘Sex and the City’ actress was the president of the iconic label until recently and although no formal announcement has been made by either party, the split was alluded to in a recent interview the star completed with US Vogue.
A line in the interview reads: “When ‘Sex and the City’, to her own surprise, made her a fashion star, she launched her own design label and perfumes, as well assigning on to run the Halston Heritage label, a relationship that recently came to an end.”
Last November it was revealed Sarah Jessica was not been pleased the CEO of Halston Bonnie Takhar had been forced to step down.
A source said: “Sarah has been a strong supporter of Bonnie for a very long time, and has been the sole voice supporting her against the board and shareholders.
“She has been fighting this for a very long time. She believed in Bonnie. She was emotional and upset because this finally came to a head.”

With the summer sun beating away we’re all looking at ways to get that beauty look just right.
We want to look bronzed, yet too much can give a hint of the orangutan look, and black eyeliner seems so last season.
Thankfully celebrities have been showing us how to incorporate the two and exactly what we should be doing with our eyes this season.
That’s right golden tones are back in.
Alexa Chung showed us exactly how this eye colour should be worn when she showed off her smoky eyes a few weeks ago, while Blake Lively showed us how to add for an evening look.
See all the star style in the gallery below.

We couldn’t do a designer spotlight series without including Chanel, after all this iconic fashion house has bought us a great deal of style joy over the past century.
The design house was the first to bring chic elegance into the mainstream and combine different fabrics including fur, tweeds and on-trend hats.
And this is really what attracted celebrities right through the 50s and 60s to now to wear them. Under Karl Lagerfeld’s current designs, Chanel has become alot more funky – think mini dresses, luxe fabrics and tiered styles, yet that elegance still remains. Fans now include the likes of Lily Allen, Emma Watson and Sarah Jessica Parker, just to name a few.
See the gallery below for styles ranging all the way back to the early 1900s to today, as well as celebrity fans.
