Sex and The City ... The Prequel!?

With rumors swirling around the internet about another Sex and The City series (be it film or television series) one can't help but feel the fashionable excitement in the air. Some rumors swear that Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon, Kim Cattral and Kristin Davis plan to reprise their roles on television. Other rumors state plans for a prequel of sorts to hit theatres. That's when the question hit me. Who would I want to see in the infamous four's shoes?



I chose: quirky Sarah Roemer as Carrie Bradshaw. Pretty redhead Amy Adams as Miranda Hobbes. The elusively shy and demure Alexis Bledel as Charlotte York and the bubbly southern belle, Annalynne McCord as Samantha Jones. What do you think about my choices?? Who would you choose to play a younger version of these four??


P.S. What do you think about Marc Jacobs moving to Dior!?

Remembering Sex and the City: 10 Points

I never actually watched the Sex and the City series until way after it was off the air. I came across the DVD's in the library one summer afternoon, when I still lived in Ft. Lauderdale. I rented Season 3, Disc 2. Which was weird for me, considering I always have to watch everything in order. I remember flying through the episodes and heading back to the library for more. After finishing Season 3, I purchased the book and the box set.

I thought I would commemorate some of my favorite Carrie Bradshaw moments today:

1. How Vogue fed her.
2. When she became fashion roadkill.
3. Shooting the cover of her book with sky-high stilettos and a pink mac laptop.
4. The night she left Aidan in bed for a glow-in-the-dark club.
5. Sharing a corner of a Parisian cafe with a huge dog and a cigarette.
6. Fainting at the extravagant gestures from Aleksandr Petrovsky to later dancing at McDonald's in a pink, Oscar de la Renta dress.

Only Carrie, right?

7. What about the time she wore a myriad of pearls around her neck to dinner.
8. In season 6, Carrie lost a pair of Manolo Blahnik silver d'Orsays after going to a party.
9. And we all remember how she got dumped by a Post-it, right?
10. What about running in heels chasing after Aidan's dog Pete in the middle of the night?


She set trends, recycled them and renewed them. She even invented new fashion rules. For instance tracks shorts and heels, Gucci fanny-packs, or a Juicy Couture tube dress paired with a blazer. Things we never would have thought to do before Carrie, or Patricia Fields. "Carrie Bradshaw" was and still is “IT”!

OK, so by now you can probably tell that Carrie Bradshaw is my favorite, as she is for practically every other woman who watches the show. She is the most relatable after all. I adore her quirky scream and infectious laughter. Oh, and her insatiable taste for pricey shoes, Vogue and handsome men. However, I can't help but love the other three as well. Let's not forget Samantha, who always said what I was thinking, out loud and crystal clear! She always made me giggle or blush. Miranda could be bossy and rather cynical, yeah I can be that way sometimes too. And Charlotte, the soft spoken, always pulled together brunette. Although, not quite as naïve, I'm just as old fashioned when it comes to love and romance.

I Heart New York

My trip to Manhattan was a great success. The first day was spent walking, exploring and noshing on goodies. Red Stone Pizzeria makes the yummiest veggie pizza and cranberry turkey wraps ever. I finally got to go inside of H&M and Zara, although I was too rushed for time to shop. The best part of that first day was finally getting to meet up with blogger friend and New York native, Karen (Where Did U Get That?) and having a photo shoot session taken of us together. The location? Where else but the New York Public Library where Carrie Bradshaw chose to wed Big in the Sex and The City film. *You can see more photos of us, including dining at Serafina in Karen's blog here.

Thank you for the Feature StyleCaster.com it about made my year!! YES, YES, YES!

I call this The Carrie Bradshaw!

Call it playing dress up or call it reality. What difference does it really make? If you're happy with the outcome, that is what counts most, right? And that is what I pull from Sarah Jessica Parker and her alter ego, Carrie Bradshaw. Yes! every. single. time. that I watch Sex and the City; Carrie inspires me like nothing else. Each episode is like unwrapping a Christmas present, only leaving me with the urge to dig through my closet and come up with something new and different and always, very Carrie.

Voila!

Vest: vintage. Leggings: American Apparel. Necklace: forever21. Oxford ankle boots: Newport News. Gloves: Bloomingdales.

What's your Secret Single Behavior?

• I also enjoy saltine crackers with jelly, except I prefer strawberry. I'll have to try it the Carrie way though, with Vogue!
• I always drink a bottle of Voss or Fiji water before bed while reading Nylon magazine.
• Giving myself pedicures and manicures right after a shower.
• I love to have lunch, watching TV uninterrupted, when nobody else is home.
• I give myself facial masks and then sip lemon iced tea while watching Gilmore girls reruns, letting it work on my face.
• I hide fruit in the fridge in a secret spot just for me.
• Making Mocha Cafe with marshmallow creamer every morning to drink before work.
  
• Watching "girly" TV on DVD just before bed while eating a freshly made fruit salad.
