Sarah Jessica Parker: Pretty in Purple

Sarah Jessica Parker walks her 8-year-old son James to school on Friday (March 18) in New York City.

The 45-year-old actress kept warm in a purple Halston Heritage double wool hooded coat from the Fall 2011 collection.

Last week, SJP and James dropped by Doodle Doo’s to pick up a gift for a friend’s birthday party.

Sarah is currently filming comedies, New Year’s Eve and I Don’t Know How She Does It.
