She is playing a 16-year-old Carrie Bradshaw so it's vital the stylists get it right.

But going by AnnaSophia Robb's latest look on the set of The Carrie Diaries SJP would mightily approve.

The teen prequel to Sex and the City is due to air very soon and in the run-up Robb has been snapped in myriad 'teen Carrie' get-ups.

AnnaSophia Robb was spotted filming scenes for the Carrie Diaries in New York on Wednesday - she plays the titular role

The latest, while filming in New York on Wednesday, did not disappoint.

The 19-year-old actress was seen in a flared black and white animal print skirt, fuchsia blazer with pearl buttons and a dusky pink winter jacket.

In a pleasing contrast to the skirt she also wore black opaque polka dot tights.

Wedged patent heels finished the ensemble off and she toted her trademark Carrie bag.

In character: In one scene Carrie gets dropped off to an office building in Madison Square Gardens by her dad

It appeared that Robb was being filmed waving goodbye to her 'dad' before she scampered into the office block where her character is interning.

The hotly anticipated show will debut next January.

It revolves around the exploits of a young Carrie Bradshaw who leaves her Connecticut home for the hustle bustle of New York City where she takes a job as an intern at a law firm, and soon meets a new cast of characters.

Robb has been busy filming scenes for the show wearing a variety of fashionable outfits including a black tulle gown that brings back memories of the tutu Sarah Jessica Parker wore in the original show's opening credits.
