Socks in the city! Sarah Jessica Parker starts a new trend in fancy footwear during mother-daughter stroll

Sarah Jessica Parker made a once-abhorred pairing look chic.
Even after all these years, the Sex And The City star is coming up with new ways to wear her familiar old clothes as she proved during a Thursday outing with her three-year-old daughter Marion.
This time the 48-year-old was spotted treading the New York City sidewalk in red clog sandals AND colour-splashed knee socks.

Singular style: Sarah Jessica Parker made a fashion statement in socks and sandals during a mother-daughter outing with three-year-old Marion on Thursday

It's a look that was considered taboo but leave it up to Sarah to change all that.
Then again the actress who played pair-with-it-anything Carrie Bradshaw on HBO's hit series Sex And The City and its big-screen follow-ups in known for her eclectic taste in clothes.
Sarah was in a celebratory mood and small wonder.
Thursday, June 6, also marks the 15th anniversary of the HBO premiere of Sex And The City, which since then has garnered even more fans thanks to re-runs on cable.

Fancy feet: The 48-year-old actress is willing to try anything when it comes to fashion and somehow she almost always pulls it off as she did here

Carnival style: Sarah's colour-splashed socks had turquoise tops and were tipped with brown

Not much has changed since Carrie threw herself into just about anything wearable - Sarah IS Carrie.
The mother-of-three matched her socks-and-sandals with rolled up jeans that were trendily torn and faded along with a long-sleeved charcoal grey top.
The chainlink red shoulder bag was the perfect accessory to blend in with those strappy heels.

Quite a feat: Leave it to Sarah to pull off such an eclectic look that included rolled up torn jeans and charcoal grey top

Role model: It looked like little Marion was copying her mother's style in yellow jumpsuit, pink cardigan and turquoise ballet slippers

Minor adjustment: The doting mother paused to fix her toddler's hair

With dark shades shielding her eyes and her long honey-brown hair falling around her shoulders, Sarah was every bit movie-star chic.
Even her adorable tot Marion has picked up some of her famous mother's style.
Marion looked oh-so-cute in her canary-yellow jumpsuit and pink cardigan which were matched with turquoise-blue ballet flats.

There's a first: Carrie and her Sex And The City pals were introduced to HBO viewers on June 6, 1998

Carried away: Sarah exhibited a series of outrageous outfits during the show's five seasons and in its big-screen counterparts

Sarah is seen daily on the streets of her adopted city and usually with at least one of brood fashionably in tow. 

On this day, which appeared to have included a stop at one of the stores in their West Village area, Sarah left Marion's twin Tabitha and son James, 10, presumably at home with actor husband Matthew Broderick to mind.
Sarah has been busy of late, making appearances at her favourite charities.
Now that she's got two films in post-production, perhaps the actress will get the ball rolling on that third Sex And The City film she hinted at recently.
'I've been saying... there is one story left to tell,' Sarah Jessica told Extra. 'If it is, in fact, the right time and the right place, maybe we should tell it. It would be wonderful. It's fun to ponder.'

Room for one more: Sarah has hinted that a third Sex And The City feature film may be in the works
