Get The Look - Sex and The City

THE SEX AND THE CITY EFFECT

When I sat down to watch the trailer for the much awaited second instalment of Sex and The City, I was blown away and if I may say s-excited! The foursome of Sarah Jessica Parker, Kristin Davis, Kim Cattrall, Cynthia Nyxon breathe a whole new life into the characters Carrie, Charlotte, Samantha and Miranda as they travel to exotic Dubai to spice up what have become stressful and mundane lives.

The first movie had 300 costume changes in 148 minutes - that's two costume changes every minute! So who knows what's in store for us in this amazing movie, and I'm starting to worry that Patricia Fields' brilliant styling will leave me wanting more. Now that we all know that the fashion is going to be fantastic and fabulous, so what we really want to know how to make these gorgeous outfits work for us. So here's a rundown of each character's style and some key pieces to pull off their look!

Carrie Bradshaw

If Parisian chic and romanticism had a love child, it would be Carrie's style. The fashion heroine of the twentieth-century, Carrie's style is the definition of Fashion. You can find haute couture pieces, kitschy vintage frocks and modern everyday wear stashed in her wardrobe, all just next to her famous Blahniks. Carrie's style is eclectic, quirky and very fashion forward, so inject bold colours, statement pieces and jewellery into your wardrobe. Don't forget a matching pair of stilettos to go with your outfit - Carrie doesn't wear anything else on her feet!

Samantha Jones

Samantha's high-flying job demands outfits that are appropriate yet fashionable. So she chooses body-accentuating suits in bold colours which matching heels and bags. But come night time, she dons sexy standout ensembles that show off her svelte figure and personality. If you don't want to invest in two separate day-and-night wardrobes, choose sleekpants, draped tops, and tailored wrap dresses that is both appropriate for work and that dinner time.

Charlotte York

Charlotte's wardrobe consists of pieces that are classic and reflect her feminine charm. Appreciate her style by choosing pastel pieces, blouses and skirts coordinated with timeless accessories like diamond earrings or a pearl necklace. Try choosing pieces with elegant shapes like shift dresses, pencil skirts and peacoats. Infuse delicate details like lace, ruffles, bows or embroidery to simple outfits to bring out your girlish side!

Miranda Hobbes

Miranda chooses smart classic business attire like skirt, suits and trousers for her daytime lawyerly look but always manages to look fashionable and chic with subtle touches, large and structured bags, statement blouses and practical yet stylish heels. Thought she tends toward casual and athletic wear on her days off, you can count on her to spice up her look with sexy slip dresses with geometric designs and funky accessories, such as chunky bangles and jewelled necklaces.
