The Carrie Bradshaw of today allows herself certain licenses that her past version would hardly have granted. Although the little presence of her beloved Manolo Blahnik shoes - so characteristic of her style during the six seasons of Sex and the City - has worried, her most recent choice of footwear leaves this glamorous sphere entirely, and points to the search for a absolute comfort.
Seeing the actress, Sarah Jessica Parker, reprise the role of Carrie Bradshaw, almost twenty years after the premiere of the sixth season of the series, has been a total discovery. The brief glimpses obtained on the recording set of the story of a group of friends who live in New York, today under the name 'And Just Like That', hint at what will come in this new installment.

Of course, the keys to the style that defined the aesthetics of the columnist for The New York Observer are still there. We verified it with one of the most recent outfits that we saw during this shoot: a voluminous Carolina Herrera polka dot skirt, a vintage bag and a feathered headdress. The hallmark of the outfit was a pair of stiletto heels with a jewel embellishment on the front, presumably one of the few times we've seen a Manolo Blahnik design.
Carrie Bradshaw Isn't Afraid To Wear Sandals With Socks In 2021
Carrie Bradshaw's selection of footwear at this stage has focused on Celine Melody's Mary Janes with three buckles, a model that is far from the fine stiletto heels with which the protagonist used to walk through Manhattan, or Hedi Slimane stomper heels from the fall-winter 2020 collection.
While her style will continue to set trends as a fashion icon, Carrie Bradshaw's once-fierce footwear has loosened up considerably over time, especially considering the last selection we saw of the character who plays Sarah Jessica Parker. The American actress was seen on the recording set next to Cynthia Nixon wearing a pair of sandals with socks, one of the homewear trends that gained more popularity during social distancing due to the pandemic.
It was a Birkenstock in brown suede with a single strap at the top and Free People socks in cream with gold and black details, as well as a pom pom at the back. This combination, which would fall within the current trends that favor comfort, was combined with a pale pink midi skirt by Alaïa and a cream-toned blouse with puffed sleeves.
