Sarah Jessica Parker has long used her platform to balance social advocacy with her signature New York City style.
In February 2021, the actress joined the growing chorus of voices supporting the #FreeBritney movement, taking to social media to signal her solidarity with Britney Spears during the height of the singer’s conservatorship battle.
While SJP is known for her vocal support of peers in the industry, she is equally famous for the “pavement runway” she creates while commuting to her retail locations. On the same weekend she voiced her support for the movement, she was spotted at her South Street Seaport shoe boutique in Manhattan, proving that her penchant for eclectic, high-low fashion remains a cornerstone of her public persona.
As a response to the documentary, Sarah Jessica Parker posted the hashtag “#FreeBritney” on her Twitter account over the weekend.

That same afternoon, SJP was spotted visiting her South Street Seaport shoe boutique in an eclectic mix of patterns and colors.
Never one to shy away from fashion risks, the Footloose actress opted for an unusual outfit pairing, including a leopard-print fur coat and a paisley-printed sleeveless dress.

Once inside her store, SJP removed her coat, revealing her prairie-inspired checkered blouse with white lace trims. She also wore a pair of vibrant pink paisley-printed leggings.

In a pre-recorded video played at a virtual benefit for the Central Park Conservancy’s Playground Partners program, SJP revealed the inspiration behind the Sex and the City reboot and how it started as a podcast idea.
We weren’t planning it. Michael Patrick King and I hadn’t discussed it. It actually happened during shelter in place, I was listening to a podcast and it occurred to me that Michael Patrick and I had never talked about our experience working and producing the show.
We started talking about maybe doing a podcast and as we were talking about that we just realized ‘Why are we doing a podcast? Should we maybe think about a new chapter?’
Four days later, Sarah Jessica Parker returned to her South Street Seaport boutique with another effortlessly layered winter look—this time trading vibrant prints for a practical cold-weather ensemble anchored by her own SJP Collection “Busker” boots.
