Fashion Icon Carrie Bradshaw

In celebration of the release of Sex and the City 2, I only found it fitting to celebrate one of my favorite style Icons, Carrie Bradshaw.

The Famous Tu-Tu and Notorious Closet
Carrie Bradshaw, the sex columnist in New York is not only iconic for her style but for her confidence. Confidence is sexy, and no matter what Carrie wore, or didn’t wear… she was always adorned with Sex Appeal.  Famous for her love of expensive footwear, she wasn’t short on Manolo’s… one can recall Carrie being “held up for her new Manolo Blahniks.” This would only happen to Miss Bradshaw. She wasn’t the “matchy-match” girl, but more of a mix and match.  If you take vintage, Couture and Fancy Footwear and put them all together Carrie Bradshaw is what you’ll get. If anyone can learn anything from this fashion icon, it is that confidence is the key, take some great pieces put them together and as long as you know you can rock it…. Go for it. It’s great to pair contrasting colors, different textures, and don’t be afraid to dress how you feel.  Grab a great pair of heels and pair them with anything to bring out your inner vixen…Don’t conform, and always make a statement like Carrie Bradshaw would.
