'Sex and the City'-Inspired Outfits to Shop
The eternal question: Are you a Carrie, Charlotte, Miranda, or Samantha?
In honor of Sex and The City's reboot, we couldn't help but revisit the iconic style of our favorite cosmo-sipping New Yorkers. The fab wardrobes —the brainchild of stylist Patricia Field—were so very distinct, that they were often a heated point of discussion in and of themselves. Ahead, we're taking a look at four of our favorite looks from fashion moments past, with pieces you can outfit yourself in right now.
Carrie Bradshaw
We love Carrie's penchant for rocking over-the-top outfits—no matter the occasion. Her style embraced striking accessories and show-stopping prints, while incorporating the classics; from brooches to bags to her signature Manolo Blahniks.

Charlotte York
Charlotte's preppy Upper East Side wardrobe was consistently classic, brimming with structured silhouettes, pastel hues, and feminine details. Her buttoned-up style also showcased a bevy of timeless accessories like top handle bags, pearl-adorned earrings, and printed headbands.

Miranda Hobbes
Miranda’s corporate-to-cocktail style was all about practicality. The no B.S. career mom relied on polished pencil skirts, punchy blazers, and perfectly-pieced-together accessories to get the job done.

Samantha Jones
One thing's for sure: Samantha made her own rules when it came to power dressing. You could depend on the New York publicist's plunging necklines, leg-baring mini dresses, and playful accessories that always offered up a bit of kitsch.
