Sara Jessica Parker's Hat

[texasgirl]

So what did ya'll think of SJP's London Premiere hat? I thought it was really interesting and pretty. I thought her hair looked awful. If she'd worn an updo, I think it would have looked better. Thoughts???

I like it. I think if you are going to wear a hat make it an interesting one. But I do agree that the wild hair would have looked more appropriate in an up do. More finished and dressed to me.

My initial reaction is "ridiculous." I'll get back to you with any follow-up reactions later. lol

Indeed. "obnoxious" and "ugly" also pop to mind.

If she took off the bush on the top, the mermaid tale topper of the hat would be fine

wow, butterflies?? it's even more kitschy than I thought after seeing it on gofugyourself. lol

I think if she nixed the insects and the green rose, it would be pretty dandy. As is, it's too too.

 

[The Shirt]

I think it would make a fabulous table centerpiece for a spring fling.

I agree about the updo comment. There is something about the proportion of all that height and the weight of the long hair that I don't care for. Perhaps fussy hat deserves fussy hair?

 

[Vintage Betty]

I think the milliner is trying too hard. It's interesting though...if she had taken the embellishments and wrapped them in a curve around her head in a downward spiral, I think it might have worked.

I love her!! I love her hat! I love her and her hat even more once I saw it was an acorn! If I could be anyone in the world it would be SJP!

 

[BegintheBeguine]

I like it. I thought the acorn part was some sort of peacock part and I liked it even more. I like the green rose, the butterfiles and I like the dress. The hair should be even wilder; but it looks too dry and in need of a trim! Or it should have been the other extreme: severely scraped back.

REALLY? She has the face of a horse.

 

[LolitaHaze]

REALLY? She has the face of a horse.

Oh yes! I think she is absolutely gorgeous! I don't think she has a horse face at all. Even more so... I have enjoyed her personality and I think that is even more beautiful. Of course, I could drop the smoking part... but when I think of who I would want to be, it would want it to be based on more than just physical. Mind you I am only basing this off of how she has conducted herself in interviews and as a guest on shows... I don't know her personally. But even still... I think she is incredibly pretty!! I would love to have her striking blue eyes and her wide smile!

 

[Mrs. Merl]

I actually kind of like it. But I love, love, love hats!!! I think I especially like the color scheme.

 

[imoldfashioned]

Whoa!

I wonder if that's a Philip Treacy? I actually kind of like the top with the rose and the butterfly and the feathers, it's the woven little mushroomy bit at the bottom that bothers me, especially the little "handle" bit. I think I'd like it better if the feathery bit were wrapped around the crown of a hat and extending towards the back.

Still and all, it's an attention getter--which is probably what they wanted.

I think it is supposed to be an acorn top.

 

[Mrs. Merl]

I agree - it looks like an acorn top to me (kinda cute I think.) I also wanted to agree with the comments about her hair. An up-do would have made it seem less jarring, in my opinion. Giving it more of a feel that it was part of the look rather than something randomly planted on her head.

 

[MaryDeluxe]

I like it! But I think it would look better worn with her hair up!

Yes, it is a Philip Treacy hat. I think she just wanted something over the top, something that Carrie would wear.

I think she's really pretty too. I felt sorry for her when that men's magazine voted her the unsexiest woman. You could see it really hurt her feelings on an interview I saw, I think on Oprah.

I actually don't think she's pretty in my definition of pretty (there are prettier women here on the Lounge) but I thought that was just plain cruel of the magazine to do that, in order to sell issues.

I didn't see her interview, but I saw an interview with her husband, and he stated that it made him look bad also.

But back to her hat....was it a custom job just for her at this event?

I agree... it is one thing to say that you think someone is ugly to your girlfriends or something, but for a NATIONAL MEN'S MAGAZINE to outright proclaim that is more ugly in my opinion...

Marilyn Monroe said it best, "No one ever told me I was pretty when I was a little girl. All little girls should be told they're pretty, even if they aren't."
