Carrie Bradshaw

by

Don't get us wrong, we love us some Sex and the City. HOWEVER…some of the things that happened in that show were just beyond ridiculous.

Here are just some of those moments…

1. That time Samantha dyed her pubes

Can you imagine the effort…for one grey hair?! Girl, please.

2. That time Carrie said “You have to forgive me” ten million times

Please, Aiden make her stop.

3. That time Charlotte put stamps around her husband’s manhood

As IF he wouldn’t wake up…

4. That time Smith waited in the hotel for Samantha even though he knew she was having sex with Richard upstairs

Although we're glad he did…

5. That time Carrie guilt-tripped Charlotte into handing over her engagement ring because she was going to lose her apartment, because she buys too many shoes

Toxic friend alert, anyone?!

6. That time in Sex and the City 2 when Carrie kissed Aiden

When years previously she had cheated on Aiden with Big…sort it out Carrie

7. That time in Sex and the City 2 when Samantha screamed “I have SEX”…with actions

​8. That time Carrie said to Big: "You're girl is lovely, Hubbell" and then walked away really smug believing she's the elusive female who can't be tamed…

She's just so deep, y'know?

From the moment she first dodged New York traffic in a tutu, Sex and the City’s Carrie Bradshaw has given us endless style inspiration. With an incredible collection of clothes (that seemed a little excessive for someone on a journalist’s salary), she was undoubtedly the show’s style queen.

Sometimes though, Carrie got it so very, very wrong. Here are a few of the outfits that made us cringe…

1. Those “cozy” woollen shorts
With the coat closed this outfit would have been totally fine. But why the strapless woolly vest and shorts combo?! The addition of leopard print kitten heels didn’t help either.

2. The LeAnn Rimes tribute outfit
A straw hat is never an acceptable accessory unless you’ve just come from the beach or a good ol’ fashioned hoedown. As for the arm cuff and snakeskin bikini top… we are very, very confused.

3. The standard New Year’s outfit – wellies and a turban
Now, we do accept that Carrie rushed out of the house last minute in this New Year’s episode, but surely there are more practical options for snowy weather than a sparkling turban? At least she swapped the white stilettos for some waterproof footwear.

4. The mummy-esque summer outfit
We’re not sure what’s going on here. White, loose fabrics were definitely a good choice for the desert, but the outfit appears to be made of random strips of loo roll tied together. And once again – why the turban?!

5. The dress that doubled as a life raft
A red-and-white floral dress is actually quite a simple choice by Carrie’s standards, but the peplum skirt looks as if it’s been inflated. At least she’ll bounce right back up if she falls!

6. The “I’m a writer BTW” dress
Ah, the Christian Dior Daily. We’d choose it over The Irish Times any day. This newspaper-print dress is just bizarre – we do like the shoes though.

7. The dress that surely required regular watering
Never one to keep things toned down, Carrie went all out with this massively oversized flower attached to an otherwise normal dress.

8. The “I just wore everything in my wardrobe today" outfit
We’re all for layering different fabrics, but this is a bit much. A tulle skirt, paisley dress, turquoise cardigan, belt and fur coat, topped off with a neon pink scarf. Classic minimalist style!

9. Those unfortunate tartan trousers
This outfit is half-golfer, half-crazy granny. Red tartan trousers and a baby pink shirt? Enough said.

10. And… the ultimate Carrie Fail
Okay, you’ve tied your shirt up. That’s okay. It’s kind of cute. The skirt’s not too bad, either. But Carrie, do enlighten us, why in the name of God is there a belt tied around your stomach?

We rest our case!

You know the moment you hear that opening track to SATC, it’s gonna be a good day.

Here are some valid reasons why Carrie Bradshaw will always be the ultimate style and life icon:

1. She is unarguably, the Queen of Heels
She educated a generation of women to the simple principal of ‘ A Woman’s Right to Shoes,’ and played a hand in fostering what is now a deep love for Manolo’s.

She tells it like it is, and you have just gotta admire a woman who has the balls to do that. Carrie we salute you!

Well Dont Be A Bitch

3. She’s not perfect
She shares all the same neurosis about men that we do, even if we haven’t quite stalked our other halves at mass with their Mammy’s yet. You never know, give us time.

4. She’s a classy lady
If we could wear a ballgown to McDonald’s, we totally would.

 5. She’s our relationship spirit guide
Yes, over the course of 6 seasons there were lots of men, and one or two re-run’s thrown in for good measure. However Carrie never settled, she never sold out, and she kept searching for her dream man until she finally found him.

We always knew Sarah Jessica Parker was a big deal in the fashion world and not just for her brilliant portrayal of Sex and the City‘s, Carrie Bradshaw.

Now it seems that Sarah is now finally getting awarded for her own amazing sense of style.

It was announced yesterday that the iconic SATC star will be honoured at New York’s CLIO awards next month.

Parker is the first person to be ever awarded the new Honorary Image Award, which is mainly due to her big contributions in both fashion and beauty industries.

Carrie Bradshaw has been a massive style icon from the time she arrived on our screens in 1998 until the end of Sex and the City in 2004.

We didn’t love all of her looks, but most of them, particularly in the later seasons, were stunning.

TThe season finale set in Paris also featured some beautiful looks like the green tulle skirt, which echoes back to the white tutu from the opening credits shot so many years ago, which we love.

Laid back Carrie is equally as stylish and we just love this outfit with the high-waist jeans and crop checked shirt.

New York is currently under a lot of snow, but that didn’t stop Sarah Jessica Parker from popping on some particularly unsuitable footwear.

Not one to put sense before style, the former Sex and the City star struggled to manoeuvre through a pretty treacherous snow mound recently as she tried to get into a waiting cab.

Rather than going back and popping on a pair of wellingtons, the actress enlisted the help of her assistant to get her over the pile.

She was all smiles as she finally managed to get into the car – probably chuffed that she managed to get in without falling.

We shouldn’t expect anything less from the fashionista who, just like her character Carrie Bradshaw, has a bit of an obsession with shoes. The fashion designer has even launched her own line of footwear – she may want to design a nice pair of wellingtons, without a heel.

It looks like we’re one step closer to getting our own version of the fancy Manolos we lusted over while watching Carrie Bradshaw roam the streets of New York.

Hollywood actress Sarah Jessica Parker will be launching her very own shoe collection this month, inspired by the designer footwear she wore while taking the lead role in Sex and the City.

Her character is well known for having an obsession with high end brands, but luckily, Sex and the City fans won’t have to pay half as much to get their hands on a stylish pair of heels.

Americans will be able to pick up a pair from $195, making them far cheaper than real Manolos.

The 48-year-old said: “I’m a firm believer in quality and timelessness and have created this collection with the hopes that women will love wearing it for years to come.”

We’re definitely looking forward to the end of this month.

Just avoid Sex and the City completely for relationship advice. Seriously.

1. She doesn’t take responsibility for herself in relationships. 

carrie 1

2. She compares her relationships to clothes and shoes most of the time

3. She doesn’t listen when there is actually a real problem in her relationship.

4. She makes no sense most of the time. Like, what??

5. She is so over-dramatic. You saw your ex, stop comparing yourself to Jane looking for Tarzan.

Not everyone shares the same views when it comes to love. Some have a more realistic view, while others daydream about their knight in shining armour coming to rescue them – this, my friend, makes you a hopeless romantic.

A hopeless romantic is someone who waits for their ‘soul mate’ and stops at nothing until they find them. They are in love with the idea of being in love and their view of romance can border on fantasy at times.

Here are the signs that you might be a hopeless romantic:

  • You are known to shed a fear tears while watching a film
  • You think there’s a possibility that you can have a ‘great love’ as strong as Carrie Bradshaw and Mr Big
  • You are overly happy about friends who have a love life you don’t have
  • You manage to work yourself into tears when listening to love songs
  • You dream about long-term relationships with your ex

If you’re ticking more boxes than you’d like, then you’re a hopeless romantic.
