Her style: Experimental, trend-less, uptown-meets-downtown

It's hard to believe Carrie Bradshaw is already in the 50+ club, but age doesn't seem to affect Sarah Jessica Parker's legendary wardrobe in the least. Parker's personal style and that of her Sex and the City alter ego often blend in a chic, playful amalgamation of whimsy and couture -- after all, both genuinely adore Manolo Blahniks, would never leave New York City and aren't afraid to break the fashion rules.

Parker genuinely loves fashion, and that's clear in the way she pairs her ensembles -- mixing contrasting prints and fabrics and custom designer creations with vintage finds.

"I've been collecting vintage forever, since like 1983 ... and everywhere I travel in the world I will find something," she told Marie Claire. "Whether it's the Middle East or Western Europe, or New York or St. Louis, I just try to find [something] -- and if they don't have a vintage shop, I'll go to Goodwill. There's a lot of treasure out there in the world, and it's often what's affordable and what makes us feel different, so I'm just always looking for it."

Parker continues to build her extensive wardrobe with passion and curiosity -- proof that there is no expiration date on individual style.
