She's always snapped dashing around New York with her twins looking fresh-faced, not having time to even brush on some mascara.

But today Sarah Jessica Parker must have had a bit more time on her hands as she left her home with some make-up on.

However, she has clearly managed to perfect the art of making it look minimal as you really had to look closely to notice that she was wearing any at all.

Not so fresh-faced: Sarah Jessica Parker managed to pull off the art of minimal make-up as she left her New York home

The actress, 47, was seen leaving her apartment in Manhattan in very casual attire, wearing jeans and a plain grey long-sleeved top.

But she had made an effort with her face as a splash of grey/blue eyeshadow could be seen on her lids and a smudge of pink blush on her cheeks.

It wasn't clear where she was going but there was a car waiting for her suggesting she was off to do some work.

Casual: Despite her dressed-down look, SJP's eyeshadow could be seen on her pretty blue peepers

She's certainly looking good for her age, having turned 47 this week.

But recently she admitted to Elle magazine that she is noticing changes due to her advancing years more than ever.

She said: 'I don't know what I can do about the aging. Yes, I am aging.


Splash of colour: A hint of blush could be seen on Sarah's face as she left her home

In a rush: SJP looked miles away as she headed to a waiting car

'Oh my God, I'm aging all the time. It's like those flowers that wilt in front of you in time-lapse films.

'But what can I possibly do? Look like a lunatic?'

Hands-on mother: Sarah Jessica Parker carried both her growing two-year-old twins Marion, left, and Tabitha, right, around Manhattan, today


She may be busy promoting her new movie, but Sarah Jessica Parker found time to give her adorable twins a cuddly lift today.

The 46-year-old star, who attended the premiere of her new film I Don't Know How She Does It last night, carried both her growing two-year-old girls, Marion and Tabitha, around Manhattan.

The trio were heading to an office on the Upper East Side, where the actress was getting stuck into even more work duties.


Parker went casual for her outing in a pair of fitted khaki cargo pants and a grey long-sleeved top.

Taking a break from her favourite sky-high heels, she slipped her feet into a pair of flats and carried a stylish Sonia Rykiel studded handbag.

Her two little girls could not have looked anymore different, with Tabitha wearing a checkered dress and a yellow bow in her brunette hair, and Marion pretty in a baby pink top and white leggings.

Parker, who has frequently spoke of how different her two girls are, last week explained to Jonathan Ross the contrasts between the toddlers.

Cute as a button: Marion looked pretty in a baby pink top and white leggings


'They are spiritually, politically, physically, emotionally, ideologically... they are very, very, very different in every day,' she explained.

'I mean they don't even looked related. When we go outside, people think they are children that have made a play-date.'

She told the British talk show host that one of her girls, Tabitha, looks more like her, and Marion has resembles her husband Matthew Broderick more.

'One is very olive in complexion like me and one is very see-through translucent like husband,' she said.

Helping hand: Parker lifted Tabitha up in the air as they prepared to hop into a waiting chauffeured car


'One has sweet little hooded Broderick eyes blue and one has big, like animated character, big brown eyes.'

The couple's twins were born by surrogate mother Michelle Ross in an Ohio hospital in June 2009.

The girl's day out today comes after Parker's big premiere for her new film, I Don't Know How She Does It, in New York, last night.

And while the Sex And The City star was as stylish as ever, she was somewhat overshadowed by her co-star Christina Hendricks' jaw-dropping look on the red carpet.

While Sarah kept it simple in a black maxi dress, her gravity-defying co-star, 36, easily eclipsed her as she paraded her famous assets down the red carpet.

Look over there mommy! Marion checked out the sights as girls headed to an office on the Upper East Side


The buxom Mad Men star, as always, stole the spotlight from everyone in the room in a plunging satin dress.

Parker did however look sleek in her black dress and her blonde hair in loose waves.

I Don't Know How She Does It stars Parker as Kate Reddy, a successful hedge fund manager who is the primary breadwinner for her family.

It is based on the best selling book of the same name by former Daily Mail columnist Allison Pearson.

Juggling mother: SJP also found time to walk her older son James Wilkie to school

Outshined: Parker was somewhat overshadowed by co-star Christina Hendricks' jaw-dropping look on the red carpet of their new film, I Don't Know How She Does It, last night


The film follows Reddy as she struggles to keep her life in order while trying to be a model wife, mother, employee and staying on top of her game at work with tough competition from her male counterparts.

The romantic comedy had its premiere at the Cannes Film Festival in May.
It will be released in cinemas worldwide on September 16.

Happy family: Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick took their twin daughters on an early morning stroll


She had been out late the previous evening signing shoes at Vogue's Fashion's Night Out in New York.

But Sarah Jessica Parker proved she can balance her work life and personal life by rising early to go for a walk with her husband Matthew Broderick and their two-year-old twin daughters Marion Loretta Elwell and Tabitha Hodge.

The family went for a morning walk around Barnard College in Manhattan, which is part of Columbia university.

Working mother: Sarah Jessica had been out late at Fashion's Night Out the previous evening


They visited some friends during the trip, and Parker appeared well rested despite her busy night.

She was dressed casually in a long-sleeved navy blue T-shirt, jeans and trainers, and hid any sign of a hangover with a pair of huge sunglasses.

She appeared to be the embodiment of the character she plays in her upcoming movie I Don't Know How She Does It, about a working mother.

Yummy mummy: The SATC star visited Barnard College in Manhattan

It's a twin thing: Sarah Jessica with Marion Loretta Elwell and Tabitha Hodge


The Sex and the City star looked like she was having a great time at the fashion event but was hard at work late into the night as she was promoting a range of high heels she has co-designed with show designer Manolo Blahnik.

While Parker has always insisted she is very different from her iconic character Carrie Bradshaw - there is one thing they've always had in common - a love for shoes.

And last night, the leather-clad actress celebrated her love of footwear as she teamed up with Manolo Blahnik at his store in New York.

Lovely in leather: Sarah Jessica Parker arrives for the Manolo Blahnik Fashion's Night Out event in New York in a brown leather dress

Shoes, glorious shoes: Parker signs a pair of Manolo Blahnik heels for a fashionista fan


The mother-of-three arrived at the footwear designer's Midtown Manhattan boutique in a stylish brown leather dress and white stilettos that would have made her TV alter-ego proud.

Parker was the star attraction of the event to celebrate Fashion's Night Out where she signed pairs of high-heels she co-designed with Blahnik.

As well as signing regular autographs for fans, she also got a treat when someone presented the blue pair of buckled Manolo pumps, similar to ones worn by Carrie in the first Sex And The City film when she married Mr Big in City Hall.

I remember these: Parker holds a pair of the same blue buckle Manolos worn by Carrie when she marries Mr Big in the first Sex And The City film


Proceeds of sales from last night's event went to the Fund for Public Schools - a cause close to Parker's heart.

Blahnik also arranged for a one-off Manolo milkshake truck to cruise the nearby streets selling shakes, with the proceeds also going to the same charity.

Meanwhile, Parker has been speaking about how she balances her career and motherhood while promoting her new film I Don't Know How She Does It.

Meet and greet: The actress also signed autographs for fans who didn't have the funds or desire to buy the designer shoes


She said: 'It’s complicated and it’s basically everything I ever wanted.'

It’s most difficult at the most surprising moments. You plan to be away and it’s a finite period of time and you can make sense of it and then something happens and you have to leave unexpectedly, say to go out for a work thing, that you didn’t plan and all of a sudden that’s the moment that breaks you.

'It’s surprising the things that are painful or the things that you feel the most conflict about, or these measures of guilt that show up. It’s like Jenga. It’s a house of cards.'

Drawing a crowd: Fans lined up outside the Midtown boutique for a chance to meet SJP

Shocked in the city: Sarah Jessica Parker ran out of her photo shoot after hearing a man had collapsed in the street in London today

There are many reasons why an A-list celebrity might call a halt to a photo shoot.

But there were no tantrums when Sarah Jessica Parker stormed out of her session in London today, as she was rushing to check how a man was after he collapsed.

The Sex and the City actress ran onto the street outside swanky London hotel Claridges after hearing the commotion when the unknown chap passed out.


Nosey Parker: Sarah could not drag herself away from the drama outside


The shocked star made her exit after hearing the wife of the man, who was just passing by, screaming for help.

Luckily the hotel security staff were on hand and were able to aid the gentleman.

Eventually the drama was over and the glamorous 46-year-old was able to get to business.

Sarah has been jetting around the world promoting her upcoming movie I Don't Know How She Does It.


City slicker: Sarah seemed to be having a great time in the English capital of London


And the fashion conscious actress has admitted her style icons are of English stock.

She revealed her favourites include the likes of the two Kates, Middleton and Moss.

She said she is very impressed with the way the 29-year-old Duchess of Cambridge, who is married to Prince William, and supermodel Moss, 37, dress.


The first waves club: Sarah was happy to greet fans as she got ready to leave the hotel


She said: 'So many. Ingrid Bergman & the way Kate Moss dresses & the Duchess of Cambridge.'

Sarah added that she hopes American designers will take a leaf from their British counterparts and take more risks.


Saluting the princess: Sarah has revealed the Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton is one of her style icons


She continued: 'British fashion is more risky but we have some emerging American designers that seem inspired in that direction.'

And Sarah certainly knows how to take a fashion risk.

She wore a dramatic Little Red Riding Hood-inspired strapless gown complete with cape for the premiere of her new comedy at the Ritz Carlton hotel in Moscow.

Flex in the city: Sarah Jessica Parker showed off her sinewy arms in New York this weekend


She was famous for being the effortlessly stylish Carrie Bradshaw in hit sitcom Sex and the City.

But Sarah Jessica Parker's famous character would no doubt have told off the actress after she showed off her sinewy arms as she jetted around the world this weekend.

The slim star wore sleeveless outfits first in her home city of New York, and then in the Russian capital Moscow.


Sarah, 46, is doubtlessly proud of her slim physique maintained through a mix of exercise and dieting.

But many will think she is taking it too far, especially after apparently dropping two dress sizes last year because of her punishing regime.

She grinned in the Big Apple as she displayed her thickly-veined, skinny arms and legs in a short two tone black dress with a drop waist as she carried her bags to her car.

An arm and a leg: Sarah's tight-fitting dress showed the results of her punishing fitness regime


And she was at it again in Moscow, wearing a revealing grey T-shirt that showed her remarkably thin biceps as she signed a local fan's chest.

She was in the European city to promote her new film I Don't Know How She Does It.

However Sarah has previously defended her appearance, saying she struggles to put weight on despite having a healthy love of food.

She said: 'I'm always trying to put weight on. I eat everything.

'I’m just an eater and I love junk food. If it’s free, I honestly eat everything.'

Last year the 5ft 3in star was said to have dropped from 7 1/2 stone to 6 1/2 stone, meaning she has a BMI of just 16.1 - considerably under the healthy range minimum of 18.5.

Filming Sex And The City in 2009, she cut a healthy size 8 (US size 4) frame, but is now thought to be a size 4 (US size 0).

At the time a friend claimed in Closer magazine: 'She's always been health conscious, but this is a whole new level.

'She's worried she's looking old and feels she needs to up her workout regime to stay healthy, but it's as though she's become obsessed.

Ready to snap: Sarah Jessica Parker gets ready to take a photograph in Moscow

I will sinew: SJP gives a Russian fan her autograph to the amusement of an onlooker


'It's normal for her to be at the gym for two hours every day as well as going for five-mile runs - and she's eating as leanly as humanly possible.'

It looks like she is falling into the same trap as pop superstar Madonna, whose muscular physique is a far cry from the sexy popstrel who one a legion of fans with hits such as Holiday and Borderline.

The singer's intensive workouts have given rise to extremely sinewy arms, along with bulging veins and biceps.

Body of evidence: Sarah had better watch out or she will end up looking like Madonna

Motherly chic: Sarah Jessica Parker poses elegantly alongside her family in a revealing new spread for Vogue Magazine


She is usually fiercely protective of her privacy.

But Sarah Jessica Parker provided a rare sneak peek into her domestic life she posed for a new editorial spread alongside her family for America's Vogue magazine.

The 46-year-old actress looked elegant and demure as she watched over her two-year-old twin daughters, Marion and Tabitha, in one beautiful shot from the pictorial.


The twins, who were born in 2009 via a surrogate, look suitably adorable in baby doll dresses and Mary-Jane shoes as they play in a chaotic, but still oh so stylish, kitchen.

In another frame, she covers her ears while her son James, 8, plays Rock Band with his friends and even recruits her husband Matthew Broderick for a sophisticated black and white portrait.

Still, she insists she isn't always thrilled by the attention her family attracts and admits that she's considered leaving New York for a quieter life.

'You do start to understand the behind-the-gate mentality, the getting in the car in your driveway, but I can’t imagine living in seclusion.'

'We flirted with it. We went outside the city and troubled all these realtors and stood in these homes and fantasized, and then I kept picturing nine o’clock at night and' she trailed off miming a yawning expression and rolling her eyes.'

Making music: The actress and her eight-year-old son James Wilkie (right) joined some of his friends for a noisy looking shot

Organised chaos: Sarah looks flawless in a classic yellow two piece suit and black pumps


'The beautiful thing about New York is, you have to expose yourself to other people the minute you step outside the door. There is no choice. And I love that.'

However she admits that becoming a parent has limited the amount of things she can do.

'If I didn’t have kids,' she said, 'I would be at the theatre or the ballet every single night of my life.'

For Sarah's new role she portrays Kate Reddy, a financial executive who struggles to balance her heavy workload with the needs of her family, in I Don't Know How She Does It, an adaptation of Allison Pearson's 2002 best-selling novel.

'I loved the part, and I can obviously relate to Kate,' says Parker.


Happy couple: Sarah and her husband of fourteen years Matthew Broderick also posed together for a classic black and white shot

'I tried to make myself look more presentable today but the odds of not being, when I leave the house in the morning, are pretty high.'

But obviously her most notable role is that of Carrie Bradshaw - the role which made her a star.

'Bradshaw’s life is nothing - nothing - like mine,' she says.

'I loved playing her, and it changed my life in lots of wonderful ways, but I’m not a crazy shoe lady, I don’t think about fashion all day long, although I have a great respect for the industry. Every choice we’ve made has been different, but with Kate I really understood the attempt at a life.'

Yet despite her life in the spotlight and 35-year career, Sarah admits she still gets nervous about the job that she does.

'I lose my appetite,' she admitted.

'By Wednesday of the first week on I Don’t Know How She Does It, I was sobbing, I was apologizing. I was feeling so awful and ashamed, like I had let the director down. If only they would not tell me when the camera was running, I would be OK. I’m like that two weeks into every movie.'

'But the beauty of nerves is that you can always find a comrade in it. When Pierce (Brosnan) came he was a nervous wreck! Of course, by then I was really relaxed, but I was so comforted by it.'

All leg: Sarah Jessica Parker, 46, put her best foot forward in a mini-dress and heels in New York yesterday


All that walking around New York has paid off for Sarah Jessica Parker.

The actress proved that hitting the pavement in high heels is the best leg-toner a woman can do as she stepped out in a super-short mini-dress and high-heeled ankle boots this morning.

The busy mother-of-three stopped traffic yesterday as she stepped out in a super-short mini-dress and high-heeled ankle boots in her West Village neigbourhood.

Her pseudonym Carrie Bradshaw refuses to let age affect her impeccable style and the Sex And The City star clearly follows in the footsteps of the role that made her famous.

'I’m ageing all the time. But what can I possibly do? Look like a lunatic?' she told People magazine about her healthy approach to ageing gracefully.



Fabulous at 46: The ageless actress is still as stylish as her Sex &The City character, Carrie Bradshaw, despite playing the part for 13 years


Fortunately her new job hasn't kept her away from acting. Parker began her career as a child actress in the television series Square Pegs and has not slowed down since.

She has two films due out later this year - I Don't Know How She Does It, in which she aptly plays a Boston hedge fund manager with two young children, and New Year's Eve, a ensemble comedy with Ashton Kutcher, Jessica Biel, Robert de Niro and Zac Efron.

Grasp: Sarah Jessica Parker had her hands full as she went grocery shopping with her twin daughters Tabitha (left) and Marion (right) in New York yesterday


Sarah Jessica Parker stars in upcoming film I Don't Know How She Does It, but the same can be asked of her.

The 46-year-old actress had her hands full with her adorable twin daughters yesterday.

She held on to Marion and Tabitha's hands as they manoeuvred their way along a busy New York Street.


The twins who turn two-years-old next month looked cute in their outfits and are already showing off their individual personalities.

Tabitha, who has slightly darker hair, wore a dark pink top and floral skirt.

She had a matching flower in her hair and wore white sandals and seemed to be the more adventurous one as she fearlessly tried to climb a nearby fence.

Girl time: The 47-year-old actress bent down to speak to Marion as they walked in the West Village


Tabitha looks just like Sarah's husband Matthew Broderick who celebrated the couple's 14th wedding anniversary last week.

Marion wore a more subtle colour of pale pink and had looked more like her mother with blonde curly hair.

The family went for a leisurely jaunt to D'Agostino in the West Village to go grocery shopping.

Adventurous: Cheeky Tabitha tried to climb the railings as the busy mother-of-three manoeuvred the girls through the busy street in the Big Apple


Sarah was very dressed down in grey high-waisted skinny jeans and a baggy light blue sweater.

Earlier in the week, Sarah had some mother and son bonding time with her eight-year-old boy James.

She walked him to school and the pair held hands and giggled as they walked in the early morning.

Sarah recently came back from Cannes in the South of France where she premiered her upcoming comedy I Don't Know How She Does It, based on a novel by the same name from Allison Pearson, a former Daily Mail columnist.

She has also wrapped filming New Year's Eve which she stars in with ensemble cast; Robert De Niro, Michelle Pfeiffer, Katherine Heigl, Zac Efron, Halle Berry and Taylor Swift.

Her on-screen daughter for the Valentine's Day sequel is being played by Little Miss Sunshine actress Abigail Breslin, 15.

The Gary Marshall-directed film is based around the lives of several couples and singles in New York who intertwine over the course of New Year's Eve.

Doting mother: Sarah Jessica Parker spent yesterday with her twin daughters in Manhattan


She's famous for playing the hippest fashionista who ever walked the streets of Manhattan, but isn't it refreshing to see Sarah Jessica Parker like this?

The 46-year-old actress spent yesterday with her 22-month-old twin daughters in Manhattan, in a casual outfit that would no doubt horrify alter ego Carrie Bradshaw.

But then wafer-thin Carrie, who pirouettes through the city's streets in heels and mini-skirts - often with a giant flower on her head, always tries a bit too hard.


Wardrobe malfunction: Parker unwittingly reveals undergarments as tends to daughter


And it's very hard to manage toddlers while wearing Manolo Blahniks, after all.

It's a refreshingly normal outfit from Parker, who normally tries to promote the cutting-edge fashion at the heart of her juggernaut of a franchise.

Clearly her focus for the day is firmly upon her twin daughters Marion and Tabitha.


A lovely sight: Parker looked refreshingly normal on day out with her girls


It was quite a transformation, from Carrie with cigarette and phone in either hand, to the working mum with pram and toddlers in tow.

Parker even shrugged off a wardrobe malfunction with a smile, as she bent over to tend to one of her beautiful daughters.

The trio enjoyed the morning at a playground before heading to buy groceries, where Parker checked a recipe list carefully.

The star even carried her own shopping bags, and still looked as chic as Carrie wielding a clutch bag.

And while her clothes weren't sharp, the response to reports that Parker leaves the bulk of her childcare to two nannies, was implicitly so.


Silencing critics: Parker even did her own grocery shopping

The 46-year-old actress was was pictured today leaving her New York apartment in the white robe, which she teamed with jeans and wedge heels.

While to most it may look like a bath gown, in fact the Sex And The City star was wearing a very trendy hooded coat.
