Dressing
like writer Carrie Bradshaw in the Sex and the City series is something that a
lot of her fans would love to do. If you are a fan of the character, you may
want to take a closer look at this blog.
Dressing like Carrie Bradshaw does not mean you would go
penniless for months because you want to wear all the designer clothes and
designer shoes she wears. There are just
a few key things you should remember:
1.
Carrie does it funky. More often than not,
Carrie mixes textures and colors. Mix it up a little and you will do fine.
2. It’s the shoes. The shoes count of course and Carrie
loves her Manolos.
3. Confidence is key.
4. Colors do not have to go together, you can wear
red together with blue if you want.
5. Accessorize. Do not be afraid to use accessories
especially those that enhance your outfit.
Alright, Manolo Blahnik shoes are uber expensive but there
is a way for you to get them. One way is for you to go to thrift shops or to
second hand designer shop. There are also charity places you can go to. The
elite give away some of their designer stuff in these places and more often
than not, they are sold at a real bargain. Do not horde clothes though because
there are people who actually need them not only for fashion’s sake but as a
necessity.
Another way to get the Carrie Bradshaw look is to learn how
to sew. If you cannot afford those expensive designer dresses –you may want to
recreate them yourself. This is a good activity for you and a great way to
exercise your creativity as well. Remember however that in your pursuit to
dress like Bradshaw, make sure that you retain your own sense of style.
