Leave it to the always-innovative Sarah Jessica Parker to take a beautiful pink Oscar de la Renta gown and turn it on its head via a Theyskens Theory leather motorcycle jacket and white gloves, no less. The actress attended amfAR's gala to kick off New York Fashion Week in a look that's totally worth taking from the red carpet to real life, especially with Valentine's Day approaching. But instead of buying a pink gown, wear a pink maxi skirt — pink pants or jeans work, too — with a black tank and a leather jacket. Throw on two matching rhinestone bracelets on each wrist, carry a gray crossbody bag, and if you're really daring, don white gloves. The most important takeaway here is not the silhouette, but the mix of pink and black; like Sarah Jessica proves, the latter has the power to manipulate the former to be less sissy and more badass.
