Rihanna Brings Back the Fanny Pack
Remember the Gucci ‘Belt Bag,’ made popular by Carrie Bradshaw in Sex and The City? Well, here is Rihanna wearing LV’s version…Is the Fanny back? I hope not!

I’m blaiming PropHate. If they can’t get married in a world of Jimmy Choo shopping sprees, Cosmos, and Mr.Bigs where will they find happiness.
Is It Halloween Already? Miley Cyrus And Kim Cattrall Are Twins!
I mean, good for Kim Cattrall for being able to fit into the same outift as a sixteen-year-old..but these new photos from the Sex and the City set kindof creep me out. Maybe it’s Miley’s spiked choker? In other news, who do you think wore it better?

MOMENTS OF UGG BOOTS: Sarah Jessica Parker Ruins Her Outfit With Some Uggly
I get it, I get it, they’re SOOOOOOO comfortable blahblahblahblahblah..YOUR FEET LOOK LIKE MARSHMALLOWS! I don’t care how comfortable they are! Everyone is hating on the pants, but I think the studs are AMAZING. They look a little strange with the rest of her outfit, but that headband is amazing in a Blair Waldorf way. What do you guys think of this look?

RUMORS: Sarah Jessica Parker To Be The New Face Of Halston
Fashionista doesn’t like the news, and here’s why:
1. Halston is a disaster. Though we’re sure Marios Schwab will end its curse and do something brilliant, a brand can’t have a face for a collection that doesn’t exist (yet).
2. Last time Harvey chose a face, Rachel Zoe, to be associated with a brand, it failed. It really, really failed.
3. As if fashion wasn’t sick enough of celebrity, whatever comes down Lindsay Lohan’s runway for Ungaro this week will probably put off even the most celeb-friendly of the fashion world for a moment.
4. It’d be silly to pay Sarah Jessica Parker to be the face of a brand when Carrie Bradshaw’s been photographed wearing it all over Manhattan, for free, and will be seen on every screen in the same dresses come May.
Personally, I’m not specifically a fan of celebrity models, but maybe that’s just because I love models? What do you guys think of this new rumor?

WTF!?!: Kim Catrell
If she isn’t filming for some sort of Sex and the City flashback, then this must just be a sick, sick joke.

QUOTABLE: Manolo Blahnik Disses SATC
Designer of all of those killer heels that rose to fame on Sex and the City, Manolo Blahnik, reveals to the Sunday Telegraph that he’s ’sickened’ by what his legacy has become:
“If people talk to me about Sex And The City, I get sick. The taxi drivers recognize me now. It becomes too much and I don’t feel comfortable. I have never wanted to be a celebrity designer.”

Mr. Big For Biotherm Homme
For those of you who love Sex and the City, we know you also love Mr. Big. And word has it you’ll be seeing a whole lot more of him. The actor has recently been named the spokesperson for Biotherm Homme, a men’s face-care brand. Though it’s not Chris Noth’s first modeling gig, it’s been a bit of time, and we can’t wait for those new ads!

Sex and The City 2 Still Filming
A few people have been saying that the movie will not finish production…there has been a ton of backlash towards the second SATC, but by the looks of it, Carrie Bradshaw is still rolling!
All You Sex And The City Fans, Sarah Jessica Parker Is Taking On Brooklyn!
If anyone was ever wondering what would happen if all four Sex and the City women pulled a Miranda and moved to Brooklyn, you’ll soon find out! No, it’s not a Sex and the City spinoff, and the only Sex and the City actress in it is Sarah Jessica, but you never know, it could work.
Based on the book Prospect Park West written by Amy Sohn, a new HBO series is being developed called Sex and the Stroller Set. The show follows around four different women who live in Brooklyn as they manage kids, husbands, work, and I’m sure a ton more. Each woman has her individual “role” in the crew, and sofare we’ve uncovered the freelance writer, the actress, the workaholic, and the former lesbian. Seems like quite the group!

When Cosmetics Meets Politics
For almost three years now Sex and the City star Kristin Davis has been the face of the campaigns for cosmetic company Ahava. But when Kristin signed on to be a spokesperson for Oxfam International, a human rights organization, there seemed to be quite the stir. Being that Ahava’s products are produced by Dead Sea Cosmetics, which has factories based in so-called “disputed territory”, the Oxfam folks say that Kristin is taking part in a “polarizing company”. And guess what, they cut ties with the actress for being the face of Ahava!

Patricia Field is Anti-Recession; May Not Style Sex and The City Sequel
Carrie Bradshaw as a recessionista? Sarah Jessica Parker seems to think its a good idea for the sequel, and i agree: it would be nice to see her live off the salary her one sex column would provide her with in real life. And no one can argue the timeliness of the idea, except apparently Patricia Field. Field said, “I don’t use the recession as a reference for my creativity” and is threatening not to style a recession-friendly version of Miss Bradshaw. I’m not a fan of the sequel in the first place, and losing Patricia Field certainly isn’t making me any more excited.

THE TEN: Best-Styled Television Shows
Half of the reason why I watch television (and 75% of the reason why I never miss an episode of Gossip Girl) is for the wardrobe. We’ve concocted a list of 10 shows, old and new, that we may watch just to see what they’re wearing.
1. Gossip Girl- Given.
2. Sex And The City- We couldn’t decide which should’ve been first, but then again, Gossip Girl is like a younger version of Sex and the City…
3. Ugly Betty- Even though Betty is meant to be super cheesy and unfashionable, she actually wears a lot of designer stuff. And Amanda? Fabulous.
4. Marissa Cooper and Seth Cohen from the O.C.- Marissa may have had her problems, but that girl knew how to dress. And Seth definitely popularized the whole ‘nerd/hipster’ thing…sorry Ryan, wife beaters aren’t exactly fashionable.
5. Silver from 90210- Can’t say I ever wore thigh-highs and heels to high school.
6. Kelly Bundy from Married With Children- Move over Kelly Kapowski, Christina Applegate is way hotter than you…or maybe just sluttier?
7. Addison Forbes-Montgomery from Private Practice- Oh you know, just another day at the office in my high-waisted skirt and adorable blouse
8. Swingtown- Check out that dude’s orange bell bottoms!
9. Mad Men- I really wish people still dressed like this, it’s so awesome.
10. Dahlia Malloy from the Riches- Definitely not how my mom dresses.
Anything we missed? What’s your favorite show stylist?
WTF!?! Carrie Bradshaw
Now that watching Sex and the City reruns on TBS has become a regular habit of mine, I’ve come to notice something that somehow escaped me the first time around. Maybe it was the glamour and allure of the New York City backdrop, but, besides the fact that Carrie is a complete idiot, I’ve realized just how truly ugly her outfits were. And yet, it has made a celebrity out stylist Patricia “feeling-herself-too-much” Field who quite frankly, at her age needs a little Stacy and Clinton in her life. Having been responsible for Carrie’s signature haphazard style has for whatever reason has spurred Patricia-mania, and I have yet to buy the hype. But I digress.
Some may say Carrie’s wardrobe was eclectic, unique, even groundbreaking. And yes, there were moments when I literally salivated over a well put together, chic ensemble. But nine times out of ten, the clothes were nonsensical and excessive, if not schizophrenic. I’ll admit it’s gotten better over the years, and with movie number two on the way I can only hope Carrie’s outfits aren’t as skittish as her relationship with Big.
