Looking better than ever the über splendiferous Sarah Jessica Parker graces the cover of the September issue of British Elle. In the issue SJP dishes about her alter ego Carrie Bradshaw, her battle with age and much more!

SJP on Carrie Bradshaw:

“People confuse my character on ‘Sex and the City’ for me. I don’t spend the best part of my day shopping. I love shopping on the rare occasion I get to do it and I love beautiful clothes, but these are the things that aren’t important — they don’t make you a better, more substantial person, thinking person. But fashion can give you a certain feeling — it’s that feeling that shoes can give you, or a bag, or the way a pair of pants fit.”

SJP on the whereabouts of Carrie Bradshaw’s wardrobe:

“They’re archived and stored like museum pieces. They’re in a temperature-controlled vault.”

SJP on her battle with age:

“I feel frankly I would rather have time with my friends and family than worry too much about certain things. I would err on the side of a dinner party than the gym. Food and people are life’s greatest pleasures.”
