Found! Carrie Bradshaw's Gold Aviators

FabSugar — Thu, 03 Sep 2009 14:00:08 -0700

Sex and the City 2 hasn't even come out yet and I'm already going gaga over Carrie's wardrobe. I loved her Egyptian-inspired necklace, but her gold aviators are also pretty sick.

In case you're wondering, they're Mykita & Bernard Willhelm's Franz Limited-Edition Aviator Sheet-Metal Sunglasses ($525), and they're currently on pre-sale at Patricia Field. The style was named for Franz Klammer, an Olympic gold medal downhill skiier who was known for his reflective eyewear on the slopes. The price is steep, yes, but it's worth it to channel Carrie B.

Cosabella's Summery Sex and the City Undies

I can always use a Sex and the City fix. Remember Cosabella designed special lingerie sets for the Fab four? They never stopped the fun. Peep Cosabella's new inspired Summer thongs. These will be available in June, $28 a piece, in the HBO store in NYC as well as on the Cosabella website. Can you guess which style goes with which foxy lady? Hints: Charlotte polka dots, Samantha hot red, Carrie flowers, and Miranda turquoise (personal fave).

Sneak Peek! Cosabella Fall Sex and the City Lingerie Collection

FabSugar — Tue, 05 Aug 2008 04:00:22 -0700

Cosabella is back with a Fall Sex and the City lingerie collection. They seem to have Carrie's and Samantha's personas down - pink lace for Carrie and steamy animal prints for Samantha - but something went haywire in the design department when designing for the other ladies of Sex and the City.

Charlotte's pea green sleepwear is dull and drab in comparison to her bubbly personality, while Miranda's line looks too cute and girlie with offerings of brown and pink lace undies. Kind of disappointing since the Spring collection was spot on. What do you think?

FabSugar — Thu, 19 Jun 2008 06:00:22 -0700

Thanks to the Sex and the City movie, studded belts are popping up left and right. For a friend's baby shower, sydnei took an old dress, old belt, put it together, and instantly channeled Carrie Bradshaw. Sexy in the city!

Unfortunately she didn't give any info on her outfit, so come back and tell us.

Congrats to sydnei!

The Look For Less: Carrie Bradshaw

FabSugar — Wed, 18 Jun 2008 07:00:22 -0700

This (mainly) vintage Carrie ensemble was one of my favorites in the Sex and the City movie. It's also one of the hardest to copy. I did my best, but had to change the color story. Instead of mixing green florals, which costume designer Patricia Field did with the vintage dress and coat, I found some lovely yellow floral pieces. Still cute, yes? The famous Timmy Woods Eiffel Tower bag is already spawning copies and there are many other gold dangly gold bracelets out there that aren't Verdura (and are much cheaper!).

Smocked Summer Floral Dress - $39.50	ASOS Pyramid Stud Waist Belt - $32.45
Karen Kane Floral Print Jacket - $109.99	Beaded Eifel Tower Handbags in Black/Gold - $75.00
Madalynn Black Multi - $109.95	Ball Drop Bangle Set - $28.00

Found! Carrie Bradshaw's Studded Belt on Pre-Sale

FabSugar — Mon, 16 Jun 2008 02:00:22 -0700

I can't believe my eyes I'm seeing that Carrie's Studded Belt ($120) is currently on pre-sale at Patricia Field Online. Throughout the entire Sex and the City film, my eyes followed that studded belt more than the actual storyline. While Miranda's wardrobe was a bit over-dramatized, I loved how realistic they made Carrie's. She wore the vintage studded belt in multiple scenes; this was because SJP loved it so much and it actually took on a name: Roger. You have to wait until mid-July if you want it for $120. If you're willing to dish out $250, get one now!

Found! Carrie Bradshaw's Blue Satin Manolo Blahnik Pumps

FabSugar — Tue, 10 Jun 2008 08:00:22 -0700

Carrie's closet that Mr. Big built for her in the Sex and the City movie was unbelievable. But what I was mesmerized over were her brand new Manolo Blahnik Something Blue Satin Pumps ($895) that she placed on her shoe rack the first time she saw it. They dazzled sitting there all alone, waiting for their Jimmy Choo and Dior sole-mates to join them. In the movie, they cost $525, but in real life, they're more pricey. Not shocking. The reason Big is holding them here is because . . . well, you figure it out!

The Look For Less: Carrie Bradshaw

FabSugar — Tue, 10 Jun 2008 03:00:22 -0700

Here is a thoroughly modern Carrie look that didn't make it into the movie. Oh sh*t. Did I just spoil something? Nah. This outfit may look familiar though as it did appear in promotional items. Too bad it wasn't on the big screen because it's a keeper. It's also an expensive ensemble; the dress is Vivienne Westwood (that tailoring=to die for), the shoes are Manolo Blahnik, the feather clutch is Salvatore Ferragamo and the studded belt is vintage. This is the perfect look for a Sunday stroll. Here are some pieces to help you replicate it - I couldn't help but get Carried away . . .

Isaac Mizrahi for Target® Toile-Print Dress - Pink Wink - $39.99	Merona® Lace Peasant Skirt - White - $19.99
Rough Roses Five-Row Studded Belt in Vanilla - $79.00	Dolce Vita Tahiti Buckle Wedge Sandal - $130.00
The Jesse B. Collection Aubergine Clutch - $90.00	Vineyard Pearl Drops - $28.00
Glitter Bangle Bracelet - Gold - $7.99

Dress Me Up: One Dress, Two Sex and the City Ways

FabSugar — Mon, 09 Jun 2008 07:00:22 -0700

Carrie Bradshaw and Charlotte York clearly had two very distinct and dissimilar styles. Is it possible that one dress can match them both? Affirmative! I came across a Banana Republic Floral-Print Lady Dress ($150), which at first screamed Charlotte to me, but after some thought, it also screamed Carrie. I closed my eyes and envisioned Carrie borrowing Charlotte's dress because she had spilled wine on her outfit. How would she make it her own? She would jazz up the accessories, using a studded belt, colorful heels, and sequins. Whether you're a Carrie or Charlotte wannabe, make this seemingly ladylike dress your own.

Carrie's Way

Floral-print lady dress - $79.99	Rough Roses Five-Row Studded Belt in Black - $79.00
Manolo Blahnik Scalloped Patent Sandal - $685.00	Nordstrom Stone Clasp Metal Trim Clutch - $78.00
Rebecca Taylor Sequin dinner jacket - $580.00	Personalized Nameplate Necklace in Gold - $70.00
MCL by Matthew Campbell Laurenza Multicolor Sapphire Ring - $420.00

I Want This Wardrobe: Sex and the City Movie

FabSugar — Thu, 05 Jun 2008 14:00:22 -0700

What's better than Mexico? Why, Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte, and Miranda in Mexico! Now if only they had filmed in Zihuatanejo during my trip. Oh well, next time. It's no surprise that the Fab four brightened the already-colorful background of their hot locale by wearing gorgeous swimsuits and cover-ups. Some of their outfit choices, mainly Samantha's, were too extreme for the average gal, but if you're a part of Sex and the City, you're anything but average. Oh, and if you want to know what they're cracking up about, go see the movie.
