I am confused, SJP. So confused.
There's Matthew Broderick, looking all smug and slimy with his bow-tie and sideburns, like he's about to go up on a dais and sell you some real-fine genuine incredibly edibly vein-popping time-stopping Youth Tonic, which will mysteriously heal about four people in the audience who were walking with canes. And then there's Sarah Jessica, standing next to him with her feet spread and knees bent like she's on a fast-moving subway and there isn't a stabilizing pole to grab, wearing twee hot-pink shoes that might've been cute with something that wasn't a too-tight satin dress-over-pants and what appears to be a jacket thrown over her shoulders.
I say "appears," because I can't really tell. From this angle, it looks like it could be part of the outfit. As in, attached. Which would be insane, as it makes her shoulder bones seem like they're saddle-shaped.
Looking at it from the side doesn't help much either:

NOW the optical illusion is that her jacket-cape has two sleeves, although I think that's just her hand poking out from under the side of the coat. Still, given that she never took OFF the jacket as far as I can tell, SJP must have thought it looked pretty awesome and not at all like she's taking styling tips from her cousin Quasimodo. Ergo, I have so many questions.
1) Why?
2) No, I'm serious. Was it cold? Because then wouldn't you either put ON the jacket, or don one of the actual super CUTE coats you probably own because everyone throws clothes at Carrie Bradshaw?
3) I mean, really, it's not like the rest of the outfit is so adorable that you couldn't have belted a winter or spring trench over it instead, right?
4) What the hell good is Matthew, anyway? Can't he tell you to take it off for photos, or not to wear it out in the first place because of the rare bone disorder it makes you look like you have?
5) Failing that, can't he make passive-aggressive noises when you're ready to leave, which send you back to your closet?
6) Ooh, or accidentally spill a giant cup of marinara on it before you leave, forcing you to put on something that isn't from one of his old suits?
I mean, at the end of the day, it's probably just a jacket thrown over her shoulders. But the whole effect just baffled me and made me wish Pat Field could dress her all the time. You KNOW it's bad when we hit that point.
