The more time I spend looking at this outfit, the less I like it.

And I love lace. And asymmetry.

It’s just… SJP could feasibly be my mother. I would not want my mother going out in something like this.

Don’t get me wrong, it’s a gorgeous dress. I love the lace, I love the white (who says you can’t wear white after Labour Day?!), I love how she has accessorized with a big floral piece (very Carrie), but I just don’t think it’s…well…appropriate. I think she’s showing a little bit too much skin and it just isn’t the right choice for her- even adding length to it would just make it look too bride-y.

I love the nude bag and pretty jewellery, but I don’t really understand why she chose green Manolo Blahnik shoes- I think nude or black would have been cuter. I do like her makeup, but again, I think the black eyeliner and heavy smokey eye it a little bit too much for her nowadays.

I’m not going to insist that SJP start wearing mom jeans and pant suits, but I’m just not mad on this one.

What do you think- hot or hot mess?

    HOT. I love the lace. And she rocks it. Despite her age. And the flower is like the icing on the cake. The shoes are the only issue I have with it, black would have been substantially classier.

    I'm STILL amazed when I don't see her in Carrie Bradshaw get-ups that make no sense. Like if this was Sex and the City she would be wearing a live bird in her hair and heeled rainboots. So just for that reason I say HOT.

    I ABOLUTLEY LOVE IT! I honestly dont think ive ever liked a red carpet dress so much! Im seriosly tempted to go buy it. SJP looks fabulous, as always. Love Carrie Bradshaw, but she has definatley worn some weirder stuff than this dress.

    Longer, even hemline. Then it's hot.

    I love it! She is old enough to be my mom, but she doesn't look it. I think if you can rock something like that, you totally should no matter how old you are. HOT

    Stunning figure, she may look like a horse but I would happily ride her to within an inch of her life.
    She may be a bad actress who just plays the same role in all her films, and look like a scarecrow with a big nose,sunken cheeks, buck teeth and matted hair, but put her in a tight dress and she looks can from behind.
    Such a shame she has a stupid looking face

    Can’t act, just wears expensive clothes and appeals to ugly people who see her as a style icon.

    To the rest of us she is just an ugly version of Paris Hilton. No talent, just a talentless clothes horse lol.

    Her face is like a Halloween mask, odd shaped head, big bucked teeth, wonky long nose, big baggy glazed over eyes, loose baggy and wrinkled skin around her neck, witches hairy mole on her cheek, her feet are like clumps of meat squeezed into ill fitting designer shoes.

    Her hair looks liked dried straw , she looks like a hideously deformed scarecrow wearing designer clothes.

    Wish someone would set fire to this horrible looking creature.

Tell us what you're thinking...
