In Love With The City

More than a decade after they started and years after it ended, I am obsessed with these four women. Me and my mum watched the entire series, and movies, in the last few months, and now that it's over I have to admit I am borderline heartbroken. That's right, I feel single again.

I really think that this is one of the best, if not THE best, series ever. The story lines are so good; funny, sad and everything in between, has the perfect New York city setting, and the fashion- *sigh*. I think that one of the main reasons that it's so good is that even over a decade after it began, all the story lines and things the series deals with are so relevant. Not once while I was watching did I feel as though it was dated, or totally irrelevant to women today, I don't know how they did it, but they did!
A lot of the shots around the city reminded me of Gossip Girl, and I almost feel like that could be this generations Sex and the City, but I still think that it isn't quite as good...and I like Gossip Girl A LOT.

Six seasons and two movies later, my nights are a little lonely without Carrie, Charlotte, Miranda and the one and only Samantha. They may have been twice my age but I felt really inspired by their fashion risks and personal styles (I now want a tutu midi-skirt), and their zest for life with or without a man. Now I want my own group of NYC girlfriends to go to Chanel, Prada and Tiffany's with, and of course all those trendy clubs and openings in my Louboutin's.

What the series gave to me- I now need to go to New York, a new more inspired outlook on life (oh how cliched) and an obsession with pretty shoes. (Few days ago I ordered myself a pair of pointed toe stiletto pumps with red bottoms...will probs wear them around the house- thanks Carrie)

My Favorite Dress of the Series:
Oh Oscar, It makes me want to die.

I am now on a mission to buy the box set of the series so me and my mum can relive it all. Over and over again...
Lady chums, you really need to watch this at least once, I guarantee you won't be disappointed, well only when it ends.

Any one else totally obsessed with S&TC?
