Sarah Jessica Parker considers her Chanel jacket to be a "prize possession".

The 'Sex and the City' actress - who is regarded as one of the world's most stylish women - is a huge fan of the French fashion house and was thrilled when she finally got her hands on one of their famed black coats.

She said: "The Chanel jacket is certainly something you think about, and maybe one day you are fortunate enough to own it, you relish it. I now own one and, among some other things in my life, I consider it a prize possession. I feel very lucky."

The mother-of-three says she tries to wear her jacket as much as she can as it goes with everything.

She told Britain's Grazia magazine: "It depends on your life, but I wear mine to take the children to school, to go to the market... You throw it on over a little black dress and then it feels fancy and important. But it is as easy to feel casual or glamorous in it."
