All us girls secretly wish we were one of the girls from Sex in the City. Do you really blame us with all those gorgeous shoes, clothing, glamorous life and not forgetting the drop dead gorgeous hunks all set in New York .I recall secretly watching the show as a teenager and loving every minute of it. I loved Carrie’s collection of shoes that would defo feed a small African country and not forgetting her romance with Mr Big. I found these awesome quotes online and decided to share them …
1.’I’ve spent $40,000 on shoes and I have no place to live? I will literally be the old woman who lived in her shoes!’
2. ‘You and I are so over we need a new word for it.’
3. ‘The fact is, sometimes it’s really hard to walk in a single woman’s shoes. That’s why we need really special ones now and then to make the walk a little more fun’
4. ‘And then I realised something, twenty-something girls are just fabulous, until you see one with the man who broke your heart.’
5. ‘I like my money where I can see it – hanging in my closet.’
6. ‘I’m thinking balls are to men, what purses are to women. It’s just a little bag but we’d feel naked in public without it.’
7. ‘You and I are like that red wall. It’s a good idea in theory, but somehow it doesn’t quite work.’
8. ‘Oh, it’s never different! It’s six years of never being different! This is it! I am done! Don’t call me ever again! Forget you know my number! In fact, forget you know my name! And you can drive up this street all you want – because I don’t live here any more!’
9. ‘Oh my God! Do you know what these are? Manolo Blahnik Mary Janes! I thought these were an urban shoe myth!’
10. ‘Somewhere out there is another little freak who will love us and understand us and kiss our three heads and make it all better’
11. ‘I will never be the woman with the perfect hair, who can wear white and not spill on it.’
12. ‘When I first moved to New York and I was totally broke, sometimes I would buy Vogue instead of dinner. I felt it fed me more.’
13. ‘I couldn’t understand a word she was saying, but I felt I had in my possession all the Italian I’d ever need to know: Dolce, Dolce, Dolce.’
14. ‘I will not be the first one to speak. And if he never calls me again, I’ll always think of him fondly, as an asshole.’
15. ‘Beauty is fleeting, but a rent-controlled apartment overlooking the park is forever.’
16. ‘I’m looking for love. Real love. Ridiculous, inconvenient, consuming, can’t-live-without-each-other love.’
17. ‘I used to think those people who sat alone at Starbucks writing on their laptops were pretentious posers. Now I know: They are people who have recently moved in with someone.’
18. ‘Being single used to mean that nobody wanted you. Now it means you’re pretty sexy and you’re taking your time deciding how you want your life to be and who you want to spend it with.’
19. ‘They say nothing lasts forever; dreams change, trends come and go, but friendships never go out of style.’
20. ‘Life gives you lots of chances to screw up which means you have just as many chances to get it right.’
21. ‘There comes a point in every relationship when romance gives way to reality.’
22. ‘After all, seasons change, so do cities; people come into your life and people go. But it’s comforting to know that the ones you love are always in your heart. And if you’re very lucky, a plane ride away.ear. I think you’re done.’
23. ‘Women come to New York for the two L’s: Labels and Love.’
These are just some of my Carrie wisdom which I love 🙂 Yes! Yes! I wish I was Carrie in Sex in the City and yes, I am still holding on waiting for Mr Big to make up his mind and build me a walk in shoe closet 😉
