Sarah Jessica Parker: School Run Stylish

Even for just an early morning school run, actress Sarah Jessica Parker still keeps it fresh and stylish.

The Sex and the City star was spotted walking her son to school early last May in a casual but chic outfit that consisted of folded up jeans, a scarf around her neck, a classic black pullover, and some comfy chucks.

Her finishing touches included some uber cool sunglasses and a piece of elegant looking woven straw tote trimmed with black leather.

I have yet to ID the bag; I have a strong feeling it’s a Marc Jacobs but I could be wrong. I will keep you posted on it.

It is quite a lovely piece. Nothing show stopping really, but it looks very classy and clean; and I like classy and clean.

If you want it, try getting the same look with these more affordable pieces; because I’m sure the one on SJP will cost you more than just a couple of hundreds:

If you plan to shop ahead for Spring/Summer 2010 looks in order to be the first to welcome the season in style, do include the woven straw bag in your list.

This coming season, two of the most well-known and iconic fashion houses will be releasing their own versions of this rustic bag, adding glamour appeal to an otherwise ordinary and uninteresting accessory:

Chanel will be offering the Coco Country Handbag, a simple wicker-type bag accentuated with braided wicker strands at the bottom, topped with braided leather handles surrounded by a golden chain, and completed with the usual signature CC logo in the form of a bag charm. The bag obviously exudes elegance and class in a town and country manner.

The house of Bottega Veneta on the other hand, will also be releasing the Paille Intrecciato Nuvolato Caiman Bag, which is actually made of straw woven the Intrecciato way. Trimmed with leather handles that contain grommets, the look of the bag is rustic, but also fresh, modern, and edgy.

Feel free to shop the same look at more affordable prices by grabbing one of the bags from Elaine Turner at Bagsbuy.com. You can choose from 2 different styles that offer the same appeal.

One is the Elaine Turner Paula Basketweave. A simple flap style bag with turn-lock opening and a stylish bamboo handle. The bag is also accentuated with embossed croc leather trim, which ultimately adds flair to a rather traditional shape and style. The Elaine Turner Paula Basketweave also comes in two color combinations: Coral/Natural Basketweave and Raspberry/Natural Basketweave.

To achieve the Coco Country look for a lot less, the Elaine Turner Paula Basketweave should be your bag of choice.  

Another recommendation is the Elaine Turner Tammy Basketweave. The bag features a basketweave design in bi-color, accentuated with braided metallic bronze leather handles and trimming for a more modern feel. There is a magnetic snap closure for easy access, and interior accessory and zip pockets so you can keep your stuff organized.

The Elaine Turner Tammy Basketweave is definitely a great accessory to complement your Spring/Summer 2010 look. This is also your alternative to the Bottega Paille Intrecciato Nuvolato Caiman bag. 

A variant of the Elaine Turner Tammy Basketweave, is the Elaine Turner Tammy Grasscloth. This variant uses woven grass cloth instead of basket weave. Trimmed with black bark leather, the Elaine Turner Tammy Grasscloth is simply there to give you more choices.
