Sarah Jessica Parker & James: Jumpin' Puddles

Sarah Jessica Parker and James Wilkie braved the New York City rainy weather while walking to school on Monday morning (January 23).

The pair held hands and stepped over puddles along the way. Parker wore her usual wool hat and winter coat for the outing.

When seen out and about with her kids in Manhattan, the actress is just a casual dresser. She once explained to Vogue how fashion really doesn't play an important role in her everyday life.

I'm aware of people's association with me and fashion and I certainly take that role on for some occasions, but it doesn't dominate my thoughts all the time," I still like getting dressed up and having the opportunity to borrow beautiful dresses, but as a mother - and as somebody who's schedule isn't always my own - I don't shop a lot, or think about clothes a lot."
