Clearly, SJP has passed down her signature style to her adorable 4-year-old girls

Sarah Jessica Parker is known for her creative sense of style - and it's becoming clear that her twin daughters have inherited the fashion gene.

The mum of three was spotted strolling through New York City on Monday afternoon with her 4-year-old twins, Marion and Tabitha - and together, they made quite the style statement.

Marion wore a colourful printed skirt over a yellow dress and topped off the look with an on-trend bomber jacket and a pair of quirky legwarmers. Tabitha took a more femine approach, wearing a classic denim jacket and a pleated baby-pink skirt over polka-dot leggings.

Meanwhile, their fashionista mum, 49, rocked a triple denim look with ever-so-cool white velcro trainers.

But if you think SJP spends all her down time playing dress-up with her girls, you'd be wrong. The actress says Marion and Tabitha have been picking out their own outfits since they were 2 years old.

'Monday through Friday, they pick their own clothes,' she told ABC in January. 'On the weekends if there is a special occasion, then I get a say in it.'

And last month, SJP reiterated to E! News that she's making no conscious effort to bring her girls into the fashion fold. 'I will say, any true keen interest they have in fashion is engineered soley on their own!' she said. 'They have wonderful fantasy lives that have nothing to do with who I am. They really make up their own clothes and costumes and dress themselves.'

Judging by their recent outfits, the girls have already mastered the art of mixing prints and layering. Looks like they're doing just fine without their mother's help.
