Allison Abrams - Sex and the City Style Spotlight
On Tuesday night, Morgan and I attended a private screening of the Sex and the City movie thanks to the shoe-lovers social group Hello Stiletto! I had in fact waited 10 days past premiere night to be able to view it with fresh eyes for this event. The setting could not have been more perfect – stylish women in their favorite footwear sipping cosmos for the much-anticipated occasion! While the plot of the movie itself had its ups and downs, fashion stole the show and did not disappoint.
We can all identify with the SATC girls one way or another – especially when it comes to their famously fabulous styles. Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte and Miranda always had their own distinctive looks on the t.v. series and have continued their trend-setting ways on the big screen. I've compiled a few pieces to achieve each of their lust-worthy looks below. Which character most resembles your personal style? Get inspired by these striking pieces and try incorporating a single standout accessory into your wardrobe this summer. Remember, there are no rules here – feel free to change up your look from one day to the next and celebrate Sex and the City in style!

i noticed that Sex and the City has a polarizing effect on both men and women… people either love the movie or they hate it
