Without giving anything huge away, here’s the trailer!

… New York!!!
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of,
There’s nothing you can’t do,
Now you’re in New York!!!
These streets will make you feel brand new,
the lights will inspire you,
Let’s hear it for New York, New York, New York!!

So here is the official SATC2 movie poster teaser featuring none other than Carrie Bradshaw herself!  …My humble opinion?  So totally not impressed.  When I see it, I don’t feel “carried away”.  I don’t like the color scheme much and I just really don’t think they captured the pizzazz of Sex & The City. 

Regardless, I still look forward to the movie.  I’m trying to stay away from all of the movie news because I want to go in with a totally clear head, but I’ve been reading that my (ahem…) boyfriend, Aidan, may be making an appearance on the sequel. 

I hope it’s only a rumor because I really liked the guy and felt that he was in so many ways too good for her and too down to earth to handle her eccentricities.  …But don’t hate me - opposites do attract.

With all the SATC 2 buzz going on, it only seems fitting that SATC creator, Candace Bushnell, is planning to release “The Carrie Diaries” in late April 2010.  We’ll all get to know Carrie Bradshaw before her Sex & The City days!

So get ready for the 80’s to make a huge comeback!  When the book releases, we’ll get the chance to delve into Carrie’s adolescent and young adulthood life – see what kinds of relationship struggles she has and find out how she ultimately became a sex columnist.

As we drive along this road called life, occasionally a gal will find herself a little lost. And when that happens, I guess she has to let go of the coulda, shoulda, woulda, buckle up and just keep going. – Carrie Bradshaw

Look at that dress – look at those shoes!  Here’s Carrie Bradshaw in a Newspaper Dior Dress, apparently heading out for a big date (so the rumor goes). 

This newspaper dress was designed by John Galliano for Christian Dior for the Spring 2000 Ready-To-Wear Collection. It’s vintage now and Galliano no longer works for Dior, so don’t count on finding it at any retailers.

And the shoes?  WoWzErS!  These are fabulous Christian Louboutins.  Deemed the Bridget Strass, this creation is appropriately categorized under “Total Madness” on the Louboutin website – “Briget Strass – Bridget was THAT girl at school who had everthing, this is her shoe.”  It’s a girlish mix of delicate, flower-patterned lace juxtaposed with a loud, chunky gold heel.

Charlotte: I could never! I have the most terrible fear of heights!
Carrie: Well, I do not…you’ve seen my shoes.

THE LATEST: 

Sex & the City 2 is going international!  Here’s Carrie Bradshaw in Marrakech, Morocco (Africa), filming for the upcoming SATC 2 in yet another one of her cute fashion ensembles. 

In keeping with the Muslim country’s more modest dress code, Carrie’s covering her shoulders, chest and legs in a full lavendar skirt, ‘J’Adore Dior’ T-shirt and a silver bolero.  And, of course, as we expect, she’s still rocking out the beloved heels.

Meanwhile, best pal Miranda has swapped her power dressing for a Death On The Nile-style white outfit and hat.

The two fashionistas were spotted pavement-pounding in their heels through old Marrakech’s main square, Djemaa El Fna.  Producers are remaining tight-lipped about the plotlines and what exactly brings Carrie and Co. to Morocco.

…Could it be that Carrie and Big are travelling to the north African country to adopt a child?

Sex And The City costume designer Patricia Field told People magazine: ‘We’re shooting there for about six weeks…You’ll probably see belly dancers and Bedouins.’

Maybe the past is like an anchor holding us back. Maybe, you have to let go of who you were to become who you will be. – Carrie Bradshaw

Okay, so this isn’t “Carrie Bradshaw”, but this is who I love Sarah Jessica Parker as.  And this woman can wear just about anything and pull it off! 

Sarah Jessica gets personal in this issue, talking about diapers, her 2 new baby girls, and her 2 upcoming movies, Did You Hear About the Morgans coming out December 11th, and, of course, the eagerly anticipated Sex & The City 2, releasing circa May 2010.

Here’s a teaser for the article:

Sarah Jessica Parker may have a number of best-selling fragrances, but the “Sex and The City” star says in the December issue of ELLE that it’s a less flowery smell that she loves. “I love the smell of diapers; I even like when they’re wet and you smell them all warm like a baked good,” she said.

Parker is on double diaper duty these days thanks to the arrival of twin daughters Loretta and Tabitha, who were delivered by a surrogate earlier this year — but the star said that son, James Wilkie, got involved with the process, too.

“He told me he really wanted Marion to be in the mix,” Parker said of baby names for Loretta — who is indeed Marion on her birth certificate. “We thought, ‘Are we crazy? Do we let our son name one of the girls? Is that the right thing to do? Is it important for him?’ And then he goes, “And I want it legal.”

While the world loves her as Carrie Bradshaw, Parker said she hopes her daughters feel the same way once they grow up. “First of all, I have a fear that they’re not going to like me,” she said. She can always bribe them with her considerable wardrobe, however.  “The only tragedy would be if their feet are bigger than mine,” Parker said.

I’m looking for love. Real love. Ridiculous, inconvenient, consuming, can’t-live-without-each-other love. And I don’t think that love is here in this expensive suite in this lovely hotel in Paris. – Carrie Bradshaw

Only 10 more days until the global unveiling of the Jimmy Choo collection for H&M!  Aside from Manolo’s, Jimmy Choo is Carrie Bradshaw’s other label of choice. 

Several celebrities have already flocked to their LA launch – and why not?  Who would want to miss out on a collaboration as powerful as Jimmy Choo & H&M?! 

The line is going to be a party collection, arriving just in time for the holidays!  What a perfect solution to filling your closet full of cheap, chic, ready-to-wear hot trends! 

Added bonus?  It’s not just shoes.  Expect to max out all of your cards on Jimmy Choo killer clothes and accessories too.  Carrie Bradshaw would *so* be there for this! 

“The Jimmy Choo collection for H&M is full of fun, one-off items with an accessible and glamorous identity made with stylish materials, emphasised with colour and embellishment. I wanted to create pieces that would reach a cool and young customer with a fashionable and independent sense of spirit in this one-off collaboration.”  -Tamara Mellon, Founder and President, Jimmy Choo.

Think about it. If you are single, after graduation there isn’t one occasion where people celebrate you. … Hallmark doesn’t make a “congratulations, you didn’t marry the wrong guy” card. And where’s the flatware for going on vacation alone? – Carrie Bradshaw

Finally!  Carrie Bradshaw in a bottle!  This scent-ual mix will contain top notes of Italian mandarin, wild red strawberries and white osmanthus, middle notes of honeysuckle, mimosa, red rose damascenia and gardenia and base notes of rum, musk, sandalwood and vanilla. It’ll be like “a party in a bottle” with a “real sense of whimsy, fun and joie de vivre”.  And the packaging?  A totally reusable canister in bold prints. 

Pricing:
- $25 for 15 ml.
- $49 for 60 ml.

The perfume is scheduled for limited release in February 2010 at any Macy’s, then a full run in May (when Sex & The City 2 hits theaters) from 1,500 department and boutique shops across the US and 16 other countries.

“A large part of the inspiration was what I now understand to be people’s impressions of seeing Carrie Bradshaw walk down the street and what feelings that evokes for her and for them — a real sense of freedom and possibilities, a love for the city around her and, of course, fashion.”

- Sarah Jessica Parker

People say ‘Everything happens for a reason.’ These people are usually women. And these women are usually sorting through a break-up. It seems that men can get out of a relationship without even a ‘Goodbye,’ But, apparently, women have to either get married or learn something. – Carrie Bradshaw
