    We want your thoughts on SJP's latest outfit...

    She’s as famous for her fashion sense as she is her TV and film career, and for her latest look Sarah Jessica Parker went for a vibrant colour block outfit.

    SJP was in her hometown of New York to record an interview with chat show king, David Letterman, to promote her new film, I Don’t Know How She Does It, wearing a tomato red blouse with sheer sleeves and a pair of fuchsia flared trousers – both by Prabal Gurung.

    The Sex and the City star completed her look with some white pointy heels and her hair worn in large loose waves.

    It’s certainly an attention-grabbing outfit and you’ve got to admit that Sarah’s figure looks in tip-top shape. But we want to know what you think! Do you love her colour blocking ensemble and salute SJP for her bold choice of clashing hues? Or is it far too bright for your liking and a terrible mix of colours?
