Dress Quote by Sarah Jessica Parker

“My job requires me to put on a little dress and run around the streets of New York in heels. But I also had the financial means to hire a yoga teacher to come to my house while my sitter watched the newborn. For 95 percent of the world, that's not realistic.” quote by Sarah Jessica Parker
