SARAH JESSICA PARKER: TIME MARCHES ON – IN SJP SHOES

How many A-list celebrities do YOU know who would get down on their knees to fit shoes on a customer in a New York shoe store? Sex & the City star Sarah Jessica Parker continues to amaze us as she waits on customers in her SJP shoe store on W 54th Street. Coincidentally (or not) this SJP store is located in the former location of the Manolo Blahnik shoe store that Carrie Bradshaw frequently visited and gushed about on the show. (Sarah fondly remembers filming there – Carrie wore Blahnik shoes to her wedding) Certainly business must have picked up since Sarah started pitching in to work there…

Manolo Blahnik Rihanna

PRACTICALITY IS NOT RIHANNA’S MIDDLE NAME

It so happens that Rihanna is wearing boots here of her own design – she styled a Rihanna mini-collection for Manolo Blahnik and these were prominently featured. They’re tight denim attached to an embellished garter belt and can be worn with or without pants. When the collection launched in May, the website crashed because so many fans couldn’t wait. They were probably disappointed to find out that the boots (chaps?) are priced at $4000. Also the wearer must have HELP to get the boots on! Yes, they’re the height of impracticality, but, why not?

Sarah Jessica Parker Shoes!

SARAH JESSICA PARKER HAS HAD MORE SHOE EXPERIENCE THAN MOST OF US

Sarah Jessica Parker must have found herself with time on her hands because she started thinking about shoes. Her Sex & The City character Carrie was obsessed with ridiculously expensive Manolo Blahnik footwear and she pranced around in hundreds of pairs during the course of the show. Not long ago Sarah got the urge to design a collection and when she approached the Manolo company they jumped at the chance to work with her. What’s makes Sarah’s SJP line different from the usual Manolos is the price ($195 to $485) and the fact that they are COMFORTABLE. Sarah told O Magazine that the sexy but functional shoes will be made in Italy and the collection will debut February 28.
