Sarah Jessica Parker’s flower and butterfly hat: Thumbs up or down?

Fashionistas have the date marked in their planners: The much-anticipated "Sex and the City" movie sexandthecitymovie.com opens May 30. Before the NYC premiere on May 27, it's making the rounds in London and Berlin. Monday night was the London premiere and Sarah Jessica Parker sported a flower and butterfly hat by Philip Treacy. I like it, but then I always admired her fashion risk-taking. (I did worry a little that it might fall off as she waved to the crowds in Leicester Square!) What do you think, love it or hate it?

SJP wore an Alexander McQueen dress and her co-stars also looked stunning. Kim Cattrall wore Vivienne Westwood, Cynthia Nixon picked Calvin Klein and Kristin Davis opted for a vintage gown. True, four years have passed since the mega-hit HBO series ended, but they still look great. As Davis told AP about the movie: "We do have fantastic clothes and shoes and that hasn't changed."

Flowers were as much a part of "SATC" as frou-frou drinks and flawed men. "Of course, everybody remembers flowers from the show," says stylist Patricia Field in a recent New York Daily News story, nydn.com. In the opening scene of the movie, Carrie, now an author and contributing editor at Vogue, walks down Fifth Avenue in a white-and-gold mini dress, accented with a huge flower at the shoulder.

Does SJP's flower/butterfly hat work? And will you go to the movie on May 30? Drop me a note and let me know.

Flower Fact of the Day: In Germany, a ban on the sale of fresh flowers on Mother's Day spurred two local mayors to get creative on the flower-giving front. Read the full story at: thelocal.de/11835/2008512.

Sorry, that hat doesn't work for me. It's pretty, but it looks like it's in danger of falling down!
I will be going to the movie though; my lady friend is a huge SATC fan.
