A Reddit thread titled: “Has anyone else noticed SJPs necklace styling quirk?” that shows a good example of SJP rocking the necklace-in-bra look and sparked hundreds of comments from fans of SATC who had been puzzled and impressed by the styling hack in equal measure for years.
“I think she had such a cool sense of style, it’s a different way of wearing jewellery. Could everyone pull it off? No. Is it quirky? Yes. Does SJP pull it off? To me, yes,” said one, whilst another added: “This is a high-school trick for good jewellery. It makes your jewellery harder to lose or steal and prevents it from smacking around when you run or jump. I learned it in private girls’ school in NYC. Maybe she did too? I have to rewatch “Square Pegs” to see if she did it then.”
Some viewers had less-than-impressed views on the quirky look, with one saying: “It drives me nuts! It’s often tucked into her bra strap so I think it’s on purpose…wondering if anyone has noticed it and/or knows what it’s about?!”, and another adding: “There’s a scene in season 2 of AJLT where it’s to the side like this. I kept waiting for it to be fixed, but it stayed like that the whole scene.”
Love it or loathe it, we think it just adds to SJP’s brilliant sense of style and we might just be trying it ourselves.
