Sarah Jessica Parker and her character Carrie Bradshaw seem to love pushing fashion boundaries, and Monday in New York was no different.
The actress, 59, donned an enormous, unusually shaped brown and white check Maryam Keyhani hat as she shot a couple of scenes for And Just Like That with co-star Sarita Choudhury, 57.
After posting a photo of the boho look on her Instagram page, SJP’s fans had a lot to say about the hat.
‘Wearing a diaper bag as a hat, clever,’ posted one somewhat snarky follower.
‘The hat is a no no,’ stated another.
Some thought it was an interesting touch for a one-of-a-kind fashionista.
‘Only an icon ( like you) could pull off that hat,’ an enthusiast commented.

‘Ah our queen bee of fashion!’ and ‘Outlandish and I’m LIVING for it!’ were other positive reactions.
Carrie’s style has been put under question with the new spin-off series, which no longer has the magic touch of Sex and the City costume designer Patricia Field.
Field now works on Emily In Paris – but did briefly return to the SATC-universe to style Kim Cattrall’s one-off cameo as Samantha in And Just Like That.
For the day of shooting And Just Like That’s third season, Parker was styled in a boho look comprised of a vintage multi-toned tiered dress in shades of blue, pink, cream and plum from Turnervintage.
The actress stepped out in white Dr. Scholl’s sandals and she carried a brown Pierre Cardin crossover bag.
Choudhury joined her wearing a cream halter top with a gold chain fastener and high waist tan pants with a metallic belt belt which hooked around her like a bracelet.
The actress wore bronze toned shoes with a weave pattern at the toe.
Her dark hair had been re-styled into a more business friendly manner and she ore dark sunglasses and seemed to be enjoying an ice cream cone.

Parker tagged all the items in the look on her Instagram page and credited costumers Molly Rogers and Danny Santiago for helping create the look, which viewers will see sometime in 2025.
The pair took over for Patricia Field, who was unable to return for AJLT due to her busy schedule styling Lily Collins and the other stars on Emily in Paris.
Parker has kept every single costume she wore on Sex and The City, and the costumers say she has a lot of input in what Carrie wears on set in the spin-off.
The actress operates what is referred to as ‘kiss or kill’ system.
‘Kiss stays in the room and gets styled; kill goes out into the hallway and is returned,’ Rogers explained to Grazia.

Although she has been the muse for many a fashion designer, the naturally slender Parker surprised fans when she complained of being ‘thin’ and having difficulty gaining weight.
‘A lot of people have their kind of their cross to bear. I don’t like being thin,’ she said.
‘And if you met my siblings it’s the same genetic make up, and I don’t particularly think or celebrate being thin. I would prefer to have weight but that’s just the way my body works,’ she told beauty expert Caroline Hirons on her new skincare and beauty-based podcast, Glad We Had This Chat.
The actress who recently wrapped her West End debut in London starring in Plaza Suite with husband Matthew Broderick, 62, said the physicality of the show burned up a lot of calories.
According to the costumers, the actress operates what is referred to as ‘kiss or kill’ system. ‘Kiss stays in the room and gets styled; kill goes out into the hallway and is returned,’ Rogers explained to Grazia
The scenes shot Monday will not be seen until the new season of And Just Like That debuts sometime in 2025
‘The show was so physical. It was a lot that it was like, honestly hard to keep weight on, you know,’ she explained.
‘But I generally feel better when I’m exerting something different than just walking,’ she said.
The couple, who celebrated their 27th wedding anniversary Sunday, debuted the play on Broadway in 2022.
They share three children, James, 21, and twins Tabitha and Marion, 13.
