Sarah Jessica Parker has held Fashion Icon Status ever since starring as fashionista Carrie Bradshaw in ‘Sex and the City.’ Sarah says while her character may have been a fashion icon, she doesn’t see herself that way. She explained while at the Barney’s New York and Walt Disney Company “Electric Holiday” launch.

“It’s not an identity that I … connect to. I’m grateful if anyone says anything kind, and if they say something less kind, I take that as a part of anyone talking about you at all. It’s not how I think of myself and I think it’s probably the healthier approach.

“I love beautiful things, and I’m privileged to borrow a beautiful dress. I feel really lucky and I genuinely enjoy it. I feel like [fashion] has a proper place in my life.”

Meaning that with three kids, SJP’s not even trying to be chic in her everyday life.

“It’s just not a reality — not when you have three kids and you go to the market and there are hungry people at home. You have a limited time to do it. There’s just no time to let vanity enter into that.”

All of us with kids get that! But you have to hand it to Sarah: who else could make mouse ears look chic like she does here?
