Actress and fashionista Sarah Jessica Parker is coming to Edmonton next month for the opening of her latest shoe and clothing store.

The SJP by Sarah Jessica Parker store at West Edmonton Mall will be the first standalone Canadian location for the brand, which also has boutiques in New York City, Las Vegas, Maryland, Abu Dhabi, and Dubai.

The store will be located on the lower level of the mall, in Phase III near BRBN st — the area formerly known as Bourbon Street.

It will carry shoes handcrafted in Italy as well as accessories and apparel designed by the Sex and the City actress and made in the U.S.
