highlights from the SJP story. should we be relieved that she apparently does her own shopping?


On having children with a surrogate mother: "Meeting your children rather than giving birth to them, it's as if, um, it's--suspended animation. The gestational experience is gone. It's as if everything else disappears for a moment, and the world goes silent and--I can't explain it except to say that nothing else existed. I don't remember anything but the blanket on the bed that they were lying on and my husband's face and their faces and my son's. It's literally as if sound is sucked from the room. Time stands still. It's so different, and equally extraordinary."

On the importance of keeping perspective: "We painted our patio furniture ourselves.... I make my children's food myself. We put together their high chairs ourselves; we do a lot ourselves! We do our own grocery shopping, we go to the market ourselves, you know? I do my laundry."

The upcoming Sex and the City sequel: "We four women, despite I guess what a lot of people hope, have never been better. This movie--and maybe it's because we actually lived together--it was the best! We were together all day long, at night, in the restaurants, in our hotels. It was wonderful."

Sex and the City getting older: "We're still playing--uh, I don't know how old Carrie is! Is she about 42 now? I think Carrie's younger than I [Parker is 45], and Miranda and Charlotte are younger than they are in real life. Samantha was always the older lady, so she's 52 now and talks a lot about what comes with that. In the movie. Talks about menopause. Comedically."

Her introduction to New York and Halston: "I came to New York originally in 1976, and then I got this part in Annie around the corner from Studio 54. I was a little girl, and for some reason they always invited the cast of Annie to Studio 54, so there I was at thirteen and fourteen, and the doorman would usher us in, literally underneath his arms. And it was 1977 in New York City, and you couldn't be alive and not know the name Halston."

Her new position with Halston: "There was every reason to say no, and there were very compelling reasons to say yes.... It's an exciting time at that company. It has had some false starts that are well documented and it is relaunching itself. It has a wonderful legacy, and I couldn't say no."

i like daria's ed, the bangs suit her very well and make her even more versatile. she can look both grungy and elegant. and on the first shot she slightly reminds me of jane birkin, because of the hairstyle and the styling i guess. sarah's spread's thankfully not as terrible as the cover. the concept is déjà-vu, i recall a model i've never been able to id shot in a ruined house wearing dior couture, but the color scheme wasn't as that one's. too bad the cover shot is just terrible and uninteresting (even though i doubt a pic from the ed would have looked great on the cover.)

Adore Daria's editorial with her sultry, dark eye-makeup. The Celine bag and wide leg Behnaz Sarafpour trousers really need to come to mama...

i think she's pretty in a not-your-typical-idea-of-beauty kinda way and i like her. she is consistently polite, sweet and comes off very genuine. the article and photos are great!

OMG, SJP's ed is gorgeous! I'm in love with it.

I adore SJP's ed, she may not be the most classical beauty but she really comes alive in front of the camera, I love the last shot in the red Chanel dress. I always enjoy reading her interviews too, she seems so articulate.

I am so in love with SJP`s ed. It has this high fashion vibe. She doesn`t look tacky, cheap... she looks fashionable. Daria`s editorial left me speechless. I like Amber`s ed but the idea is not somehow original. I dunno. Not sure about it

[jackie_oh]

SJP and Daria's eds are amazing!!!!!!

SJP for Vogue always works, so even though I may get tired of seeing her on the cover everytime she has something to promote, I'm always pleased with the results. Her editorial is just beautiful!

[clo]

I have to agree with everyone who says Sarah Jessica Parker's ed is beautiful. It really is and it is even better in print and I actually happen to like the cover as well but I had said this before.

can't wait to see the rest of American Experience!

[carmen_kass]

I can't see it for some reason

[Fiercification]

The Daria editorial is so simple and clean and she actually doesn't look exhausted, so that basically compromises a thumbs up from me!

And I really like Meisel's editorial, save for some of the granny wigs, I think that Grace really nailed the styling and the setting is a great compliment to the story as a whole.

Thanks a lot clo
