Sarah Jessica Parker’s latest look was remarkably casual. The actress got dressed while rehearsing her Broadway play, ‘Plaza Suite,’ with husband Matthew Broderick at the Hudson Theater in New York City.

For the occasion, Parker wore a black long-sleeved top with white embroidery at its hem. The actress paired the piece with light blue jeans, which were loosely cuffed at the bottom.
“Today @plazasuitebway…. And soon,” Parker captioned the photos. “The One Man Band @rayne_obryant capturing our many hours. Welcome to our entire cast who joined yesterday. We missed you and we are very grateful to be back in your beautiful company after our 2 years of separation. Visit the link in my bio to plan your visit to the Hudson Theater.
