Ever since she burst onto our screens as the inimitable Carrie Bradshaw in Sex and the City–and even before then–Sarah Jessica Parker has been an enduring symbol of personal style, with a flair for the unexpected. Last year, fans finally said goodbye to Bradshaw in And Just Like That, as the SATC spin-off came to a close.
Fortunately, this didn’t mean the end of Parker being a frequent aesthetic inspiration–far from it. In November, she met Queen Camilla as part of her involvement with the Booker Prize. Her tea-length dress and bolero jacket were incredibly Carrie-coded, as was her tousled, grey-balayaged hair, a style she’s been sporting for some time now. A technique honed by her longtime colorist, Gina Gilbert, Parker’s blended silver roots melt into her signature blonde lengths–a lesson in growing your natural hair out gracefully.
Here, as the star turns 61, we chart 22 of Parker’s most memorable beauty moments–silver-blending included.
