    Bye bye Carrie locks

    Remember those signature long locks Sarah Jessica Parker is known for? Well they’re no more, as the actress has chopped it all off and we actually really love it.

    The Divorced actress showed off a sleek wavy bob (or wob if you’re in the know) as she filmed scenes for her new movie, Unfollow The Rules in New York.

    As well as going shorter, the 52-year-old actress also sported a lighter shade than her usual honey blonde tone as she displayed her new brighter platinum blonde locks.

    To match the sleek do, she wore a sparkling midi dress and chic heels as she walked down the street, and she later changed into an equally glam pleated skirt and shirt.

    We think the new style suits her perfectly and is a great update for summer too. Plus it reminds us of the do Carrie Bradshaw rocked in Season 5 of Sex And The City.

    She also shared the look on her Instagram, captioning the picture, ‘I'm her, Vivienne Day 1 "Unfollow The Rules" X, SJ’

    Fans were quick to praise SJP's new hairstyle, with comments such as 'I love your new hair style! Reminds me of Sex and the City' and 'why does SJP have to give me hair envy?!'

    This probably means she only changed her hair for her new role, and might go back to her longer locks post-filming, but either way, she’ll always looks abso-fuckin-lutely fabulous to us.
