Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.The shirt
Rebecca Gonsalves: Like a canvassing politician, SJP wants to show she’s rolled up her sleeves to knuckle down to the serious business of shoe design.
Mike Higgins: Whacky layering, part one: is that plunging open shirt a bold act of neckline self-sabotage? Or a bit of a mess?
The dress
Rebecca: Girlish red lace is a strange match with the casual shirt; this is the sort of ensemble you cobble together when the airline loses your luggage.
Mike: You can see the white shirt and the grey tights through the lace – but I feel mean pointing it out, as the dress is pretty.
The shoes
Rebecca: Parker’s flogging a footwear line, so perhaps she thought nobody would notice what she has on above the ankles – they’re nice, but not magic.
Mike: Whacky layering, part two: strap vs tights, to complete an outfit that’s been bickering with itself top to toe.
The tights
Rebecca: As Carrie Bradshaw knows, bizarre but brilliant ensembles aren’t that easy to pull off. Nor are sheer grey footless tights.
Mike: But it works! No lingering on those cadaverous-looking pins, just carry on down to the stars of the show.
