I love SATC because I feel like I can relate to every character in some way or other. I have been watching SATC for most of my adulthood, and I feel like I can relate to a lot of the situations the girls face. Even though there is over the top fashion, shoes, hair, makeup…their stories are still very real and that’s what I love about it!
Because it’s like window shopping from my couch. And I don’t have to wear shoes, I just get to look a thousand beautiful ones that would hurt my feet! 😉
I love the fact that no matter how insanely successful or fabulous these ladies get, there will always be the moments when:
1. Carrie passed gas in front of Big
2. Charlotte pooped in her pants
3. Samantha grew the gray pubic hair
4. Miranda forgot to wax
Fabulous doesn’t mean perfect! Love it!
I love living vicariously through the girls. Also, who hasn’t enjoyed a heated conversation about one episode or another?
The fashions of course! I love to be inspired!
I love Sex and the City because of the obviously fabulous fashion and the scandalous topics the show covers, but more than that I love the relationship between the characters. I wish I had such a close group of girlfriends like that. 🙂

The friendship (and the fashion, of course!!). I love that Carrie and her friends can do anything and everything fashionably. 🙂

I LOVE SEX AND THE CITY! Because its one of the girly movies I can watch non stop as many times as I want! I do the Fashion the HOTness and they shoot it at NYC my favorite place on the world and my home town
.-= Katherine’s last blog post… Another Version Of Me? IS THAT POSSIBLE? =-.
I love Sex and the City because it makes you feel at home. The friendship, the fighting, happy and sad. Of course, I can’t help but LOVE the shoes and purses!!!!
SATC is all about empowered women who know what they want and how to get it. Whats not to love about that!!! 🙂
I was lucky enough to have my own personal SATC group of girls during my 2nd year of college. Plus, I was living with them….
1)
One girl was business oriented. An executive of a large organization on campus, always busy putting her professional life first, us girlfriends second, and boys – not so high on the list. Always lived with a guarded heart. Remind you of someone?
2)
Another roommate was a simple, demure woman. Very polite, and always wanting to do things the traditional way. Of course, she always had questions about sex, but that didn’t deter her from her ‘path’. She was looking for the perfect boyfriend, to soon turn into the perfect fiance, and then finally the perfect husband. Don’t forget the white picket fence & large lawn for kids to play. Remind you of another person?
3)
Then there’s the daredevil. The openly sexual roommate who pranced around with the least amount of clothes on. Very strong in opinions, and had a lust for life… and sex. Never thinking twice about decisions, and taking actions before even beginning the thought process, this roomie was our sex guru. What position? Where?? You’re crazy.
4)
And there’s me. The one compelled to write this comment in order to win this prize, but mostly to reminisce on college times. The one who, at the time, was going out with someone who was perfect on paper, but just had doubts. Constantly.
I love SATC because each woman has at least a bit of one of the characters in her. For me, these SATC characters manifested into my roommates during my 2nd year of college. No matter how ‘different’ us girls were, I know that we will always have that friendship bond. The SATC girls & the roommates… we can always learn new things from each other. And each woman would always have 3 sisters to help her w/ any decision she makes. <3
I love it because it’s so much fun to live vicariously through those girls…even if I’ll never live that lifestyle, at least I can experience it with them!
do i really have to answer this !!!
i love it cause it takes place in my hometown NYC the city that never sleeps!
I love their fashion sense and love the strong friendship among the women.
I love movie Sex and the City because it presents four, so different, women’s characters that every woman is able to find her type among them. For example, I associate myself with Charlotte, who is very romantic, optimistic, and has a traditional point of view on relationships.
I love the connection the girls have with each other, and the problems they have faced with men have been shared by us all! Add in the humor, the fashion, the backdrop of vibrant NYC, and you get my favorite series of all time. I can remember my husband (then bf) watching SATC with me one night on HBO and me remarking how NYC was one of those places I HAVE to go to in my lifetime. That Christmas my present was a trip to Manhattan, and he proposed in Central Park. I know I have that night of watching SATC with him to thank for that amazing weekend!
I love sex in the city because of the fashion the friendship between different kind of women and how something holds them together! We can find a piece of us in sex in the city
I love SATC because it makes me feel like I’m not a singled out in my neuroticism. It’s cool to see the cast play out the same silly superficial things and deep beyond-expression things that I work through as a woman. Love knowing I’m not alone in this 🙂

.-= Erica’s last blog post… Smokey for Sephora! =-.
I guess I’m one of the few who has never watched the show or the movie. I guess I should rent the DVD.
I loved watching their friendships with each other grow deeper as the series progressed. I also like to live vicariously through their fashion and shoes.
Yay, it’s almost SATC 2 time!!!
What I love about Sex and the City is how the 4 girls are all so different from one another but share such a strong friendship and bond. How they’re there for each other no matter what and all the special moments they’ve shared. I also love all the fashion and all the boys of course 😛 The show is one of my absolute favorites, it’s so darn funny!!!
I love it because it brought my friends and I together on summer nights in high school, watching episode after episode while sipping red wine. I also love Carrie’s sass, her upbeat attitude, her flaws, and her strong friendship with the other women.
i like SATC because it makes me feel okay about my life….and watching it is like getting time with the girls…im surrounded by guys UGH!

Oh no! While I’m intrigued by all of the love for Sex in the City, I’ve never seen it! I think I need to get my hands on Season 1!
Augh! Where do I begin. I feel like I have grown-up with these ladies. They’ve always felt like trusted girlfriends that shared their most embarassing stories and their most exciting news. Seeing the SATC ladies together again is like seeing old friends…
I love the strong bond and frienship between the characters and how they just have so much fun doing anything! And of course, the fashion and shoes !! omgg.. 🙂
.-= Agnes’s last blog post… Testing: New Comment System & Ability to Show Your Last Post! =-.
I’ve never seen it but love the fashion I see in the commercials. Even though it seems I am in the minority of American women can I still be in the contest?
I think I love the fashion and the crazy situations that the women get into! So entertaining to watch 🙂
1. The connection between the four of the girls.
2. The clothes<3
3. The love between Big and Carrie
4. SHOES!
I love SATC because it represented the lives of 4 strong women who knew that they could make it on their own. They loved and supported each other, never BSed each other, and they were all truly happy for each other when any one had success.
I love SATC 2 because it is breezy fun! I love the girls adventures.
I love SATC… I started watching it in my first year of university and have been hooked ever since. I think what I love the most is that while the show is heavy on fashion and fabulosity, it also deals with love, sex, personal failures and triumphs – and above all else, lasting friendships.
Because it illustrates how four very different very empowered women can manage to stay friends with each other through several loves / shoes / decades.
Thanks for hosting a giveaway for us Karen!
love,
A
I absolutely am in love with all of the jewlery, clothes, and of course shoes they wear and I totally agree with you Karen I love how they are all such close friends!
I love that I’m old enough to watch SITC now! And to reassure my age, I watch SITC. I totally understand the puns & mature humor as opposed to 10 years ago when I barely understood Chandler’s jokes in Friends.
What I love about Sex in the City is the friendship with the four girls.
I love Sex in the City because of how the 4 of them are so close no matter where they are or who they are with. Plus the fashion and makeup is TO DIE FOR! I think that if I could choose a television show to base my life off of it would have to be Sex in the City or Gossip Girl! (:
Love your articles and giveaways Karen! (:
I love Sex and the City because the characters are the most beautifully flawed. They all have a depth to both their physical beauty and their inner beauty. Plus, I’ve probably watched every episode at least 5 times and will most likely watch them all at least 5 more!
I like all the men and women for so many different reasons. I like the fact that Carrie can wear whatever she wants and it never matches but always look so fabulous on her. (ex: tutu – see today’s post, the belt around the naval area that matches the skirt, the crazy hair pieces/flowers on the shoulder, checkered boots with fur jacket and hair on top of her head!, crazy printed dresses) her hair is fantastic also. They sayings in the end that her character have – I put those everywhere. Samantha~ knows what she wants and goes for it! Doesn’t hold anything back and is the most independent of the girls. Charolette~ the kindest of the women with money and that cute little whiney advice she gives them all. Miranda~ her humor cracks me up! and she is the most like the everyday mom we all are but still has that edge about her. The fact that they are all different but all see eye to eye on friendship. True friendship no matter what comes their way and how old they get. I love Stanford too~ everyone needs a little of him in their life. Hope I win!!!!!!!!
.-= Kristen’s last blog post… i heart poofy & tutu like dresses! =-.
I love SATC so much because each character represents a different side in all of us. Theres Samantha, the sexy one, Miranda, the tough-love cynical one, Charlotte, the conservative-by-the-rule girl and Carrie.. who’s a combination of all and most of us feel connected too. I love that the show had hilarious topics like the “funky tasting spunk” or the problem of Trey’s “issues” getting it up. It was real and done in fabulous clothing. 🙂
Never gotten into it, but I love the fashion!!!
I’m with you Karen – I love the friendship those ladies maintain above everything else in life.
Through boyfriends, parties, cancer, children, work, … they are there for one another.
Its inspiring. I would love to have friends like that.
I feel like it empowers women!
“Why do you love Sex and the City?†– because it gives me hope that i won’t be 30 and single forever 😛 (kriken at hotmail dot com)
I love the clothes, the fashion, and the friendship.

That four girl have a dream life like all basic woman in that world! And it is wonderful to watch our dream life from screen!
I love a long term friendship despite the differences in personal life among the friends. I’m going to the sneak peak tonight, excited 🙂
Sex and the city: colors, shoes, lifes, bags, brands, lifes,….
I am watching for all these and more these words… Love to watch again again!
I love SATC because it shows how wonderfully complicated and complex women can be. A prime example is Carrie winning the heart of the “perfect” man only to leave him hanging. I also love it because of the insight it’s given our men.
Already ordered two tickets for the opening night…the other ticket is for my husband who’s also dying to see it 🙂 Though he says he’s just going for the sex scenes.
One of the top reasons is …THE CITY! I love NYC and the setting of SATC is a feast upon my eyes. Also, no matter how unrealistic the show actually is, I love the fact that the problems and topics mentioned, experienced, and discussed are pretty real ….and hilarious.
I have 3 very close friends who I hang out with and we always say we are the Sex and the City girls!lol We are going together to see the movie when it comes out, I just love how much their friendship reminds me of the friendship I have with my girlfriends!
I love Sex and the City because the girl’s are best best friends and they are so glamorous, hanging out together, even though their lives are so different. I watched the premiere at midnight for the first movie with my 3 other best friends and we imagined that we were the Sex and the City girls =P
Friendship, clothes, shoes, travel…what’s there not to love!!
i loooooooooooooooove satc! always and forever…but mostly because it taught me who my true soulmates are…my besties!!!
I truly love Carrie. And I adore how SATC can make me laugh and cry and then laugh again . . . I wanna live in NYC and have 3 awesome gfs!! 😀
I love the show and the movies because all the girls have gone thru something that me and my girlfriends can relate too.
.-= Jocelynn’s last blog post… URBAN DECAY SALE! =-.
i love their bond and love to each other. Also i like their positive attitude towards life, how strong individuals they are and how they do not create excuses for themselves.
I love sex and the city because of the outrageous, yet relatable characters and dating stories!
I love SATC because the great friendships between the women. You just don’t see that anymore!
I love the goggling over the clothes that I wish I was so bold to wear. I also love that they have been the best-est of friends. Girlfriends are a must have for any woman.
I love SATC because I love how the four women have such great friendships! Thanks for doing this giveaway!

i love satc because of the confidence each and every one of those women have. i would kill for it. and i would kill for friends as loyal as they are.
i love the clothes, the shoes, and the bags!
I love it because you can relate to the love, friendships, and other events all the characters go through!
I’ve never watched the show, but I LOVED the first movie! I like the friendship between the four girls, it reminds me of my friends from home
SJP, Sex in the City, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways…..
1. NYC!!!-I love all the shots of the city. Being an Atlanta girl, we have a great city here, but I love to visit NY. Its totally cool to see all the fun and unique things that are unique to the Big Apple.
2. It’s hard to make a mention of SITC without talking about the hunky guys….as Tabs would say-Purrrrrrrrr…….
3. Carrie is a writer, and I think that’s awesome 🙂
I love SATC for the same reasons you do! Its where I get all of my fashion ideas. I also love how each of the characters are relatable. We all have a little Carrie, Charlotte, Miranda & Samantha is all of us! 🙂
I love Sex and the City because of the attitudes the people have ! (:
.-= Francesca’s last blog post… he may be gone, but we’ll remember him always. =-.
I love it because its funny and charmingly amusing
I love it for the drama/fashion and seeing New York!
I love watching Sex and the City because the characters and the scenarios they get into are so ridiculous. makes for good amusement. =)
I really love the show for the friendships too! There are so many reality shows with women ripping each other to shreds. It gets tiring to see the same “Women are catty!” stereotype. So it’s really nice to see a bunch of friends who appreciate and respect each other, even when their personal lives get so complicated. I love when Charlotte says they’re each other’s soul mates. It’s just such a cute show.
fashion!
I have watched Sex and the City from the beginning (it was actually my dad and I’s “show” in high school) and I LOVE it because I like living vicariously through the women. I also love how close their friendships are, and they make me cherish my own friendships even more. And I wouldn’t be me if I didn’t mention how much I enjoy the shoes! I (as I’m sure many girls are) am sooo envious of Carrie’s collection!! It’s just such a great show, so fun to watch, and I can’t wait to see the second movie 🙂
Thanks for hosting the giveaway, I’d absolutely love to win.
It’s deep and lighthearted fun all at once!
I love Sex and the City for 1) the shoes, 2) the clothes, 3) the MEN!!, 4) and most importantly, the women and how incredible they are. 🙂
.-= J’s last blog post… Gone for 2.5 months =-.
the fashion n the different ladies
I love seeing the glamorous lifestyle the women lead and the fabulous outfits they always have!
I LOVE SATC because no matter how fabulous, and glamourous each of the women are – they experience the same issues that we all do! Relationship, body, emotional… I feel like I can relate. 🙂
I love SATC because I feel that many ladies can relate to what happens in the show. and it shows true friendships like the four ladies have 🙂 and the fashion is always great!
I love SATC because you get to live through these women. Who doesn’t want to be on the list of every fabulous club, go to every new restaurant, and wear coture? Besdies that, their friendship through it all makes me feel all warm and tingly. 🙂
The fashion!!!! I would kiss for Carrie’s closet!!!
I mean kill haha!

SATC reminds me that men come and go but BFF are forever! XXOO
I have to agree with you, Karen… While the fashion and escapades are great, I’m so drawn to the friendship between the girls. They’re entirely different, but have such an amazing balance, and they’re loyal to the bone! I have a pretty close group of besties, and we’re always going out on SATC lunches/dinners, lol! Oh, and I love love love how they refer to each other as their soulmates… So damn cute 🙂
.-= Tiera’s last blog post… Healthiest Summer =-.
I love sex and the city because it tells a great story of women from 4 different walks of like and their evolving friendships. I love their bond and they are hilarious at the same time. They also tell a realistic story. the fashion is a plus.
shopgurl101 at gmail dot com
I love sex and the city because the subject matter is often familiar but still very funny. Also, I love looking at their makeup/clothes =)
I like Sex and the City because of the fashion, and the playfulness of the movie. It’s full of eye-candy and fun =)
This show is just AMAZING like this is where I get a lot of my fashion inspiration and I LOVE the fashion on the show. But it’s not just that because this show has an equal mix of drama
friendships, BOYS:) I LOVE this show!!
I luv Sexin the City because the show is very real as to how my friends and I relate to eachother, plus we are in the same generation of the Sex in the City Cast. They remind me of my freinds we all have that crazy freind, the strong minded, the slutty freind and meek shy one. Plus they are my generation (Im 41) still shop in juniors,stay current with fashion and make-up (which is why i love your blog) Sex in the City show that you can still be sexy, vibrant and in fashion at 40+ and the situations and things they go through and talk about are what real women do talk about and go through..SJP doesnt look much different than she did in square pegs which is awesome!
Oh no, I’ve never watched the show or movie before. I’ve always been intrigued but haven’t had the time to check it out. 🙁
The perfume sounds pretty though!

Love Love SATC because of all the beautiful clothes, accessories, shoes, the fabulous girls. But also, the stories, the plots, the way the girls’ lives intertwiine and how they cope with life and love in the city!
I love the banter, the dialogue and the story-setups. It’s just very entertaining
.-= Julbra’s last blog post… My Holy Grail Products–a Poll from Temptalia =-.
I love SATC because even though my banter with my friends is nowhere as witty 24/7, it still feels very genuine and truly like a group of friends that will always be there for each other. And how Carrie just totally reinforces the idea that clothing don’t make the woman (I know this is contrary to everything she’s supposed to stand for) because no matter how ridiculous her outfits are, she’s still a working and respected woman with her own column and published works. Her outfits never lessen her respect as a woman, and I think that’s important.
I’ve watched Sex and the City since it first came on the air, and I always felt that it was a fresh, fun take on life and friendship. I love the show for its excellent acting, great characters, and strong female-centered storylines. It’s my favorite show of all time!!
Why do I love Sex and the City? Well, I can list hundreds of reasons… because I love Miranda’s wit… because I love the honesty between the characters… because I love Samantha’s unabashed approach to sex… because the characters are not perfect and I can identify with them… because it’s set in my favorite city in the world… but most of all because I’ve grown so close to the characters over the 6 seasons at HBO. The show has made me cry, laugh, and everything in between. Although everyone gushes about the fashion on the show, that wasn’t why I loved it. I loved the show because it showed 4 strong women growing and evolving in the city that never sleeps.
.-= Lin’s last blog post… Recipe: Perfect Vegan Pie Crust =-.
These girls live the ridiculously envious lifestyle that I could only dream about!l
I love SATC, because it reminds me that women can be strong in relationships. There’s no one correct way of dating. Women can be old-fashioned and romantic, independent and assertive, or superficial and all about the sex….or all of the above! It quiets my insecurities and can make me laugh about dating plunders that I experienced (even though they had me devastated at the time). It’s also fun to drool over the boys and the fashion.
Oh, gosh! Why DON’T I love Sex and the City would be easier to answer!!! 🙂
I think my favorite thing about it is how it’s brought women my age together through “inside jokes”, watch parties and generally making us feel fabulous about ourselves no matter what decisions we make.
Thanks for the great giveaway!!! 🙂
I love all of the characters in SATC and long for close friendships like theirs but the biggest reason I love the show is that my daughter loves it too. We watch it together and laugh, make popcorn and discuss fashion and life in general. What could be better than that?
I appreciate that the Sex & the City characters have been allowed to age and move on with their lives. They’re now in their 40s (and Samantha has turned 50) and their lives have become more complicated. But the fact that they’re no longer in the 30s doesn’t make them any less interesting or sexy — in fact, they’re more so!
It shows proud. strong, independent and yet diverse women. These women always took control of their lives and went after what they wanted (including sex). I love how it’s spanned over a decade and these women in their 40s and 50s are still just as fabulous.
It started out just for the fashion and sex advice… It just turned into an obsession. But I do love that I can take advice from them anytime I need it.
I love Sex and the City because of the way the women can talk to each other, about anything and everything. Even with my close friends, there are things I hold back. But the 4 SATC women talk about everything and that’s wonderful.
I love SATC because of how much I can relate to their lives sometimes. They discuss issues that many women can relate to in such a funny yet understanding way..
and of course the fashion is amaaazing!
I don’t think i’m the only one thinking this, but the reason i like SATC is because of fashion !
There so original and they set trend before they come out. it also make girls dream about a closet like theirs. And I think that dreaming is one of the most important things to do in a life. so thank you SATC for making me dream !
I love Sex and The City because of the great fashion that set the tone for trends in coming seasons. Also, I love the beautiful friendship among the four women. My best friends and I have the same relationship that transcends all sorts of issues in relationships with men, careers and life in general. We find ourselves laughing at scenes we have lived through, lol.
This is a great giveaway!
I love how easy it is to relate to the characters. I watched the whole series bonding with my girlfriends in college – it was amazing the discussions the episodes brought about!
Honestly I am not a fan, but I smelles this perfume at macys and its on my perfume list to buy….so I hope I win..I only saw 2 very old episodes of sex and the city in my tv film class, as much as I love fashion the storyline does not do it for me, it didn’t get my attention from the begining of the series.
Let me count the ways…
1. It was over-the-top in every way.
2. Brazen sexuality of Carrie and Samantha
3. I lived in NYC for 10 years and I love seeing the truth of certain NYC subcultures represented (Meatpacking District trannie hookers, the “is he gay or not” guys, the “small world” dating scene that is NYC
4. The real NYC street scenes,
5. The buzz of city trends, like raw food restaurants for example.
Fun, I could go on! 😉
a great show that has been around forever, super addictive
I would have to agree that its the friendships. They fought, they made up, etc, but they stayed friends, and it was the center of the show…
I love SATC bcos it celebrates women and friendship in this day and age of mean girls and cat fights.
The friendships, definitely. When I was little I always hoped me and my best friends could live together or beside each other like a constant slumber party. Of course, these days life takes people all over the world and we can end up so far away from the people so dear to our hearts. But Sex and the City reminds me that those close to heart are never too far away for their friends. I want my friendships to last like those between Carrie, Miranda, Samantha and Charlotte.
.-= Atifa H’s last blog post… Review: L’Oreal Paris Extra- Intense Liquid Pencil Eyeliner =-.
I love that they are beautiful, intelligent, sexy, trendy, and live full exciting lives and they are even OLDER THAN I AM!! There is hope. My birthday this month (36) hit me hard. The SATC girls are a very positive role model for the non-teeny bopper crowd who needs reassurance that life doesn’t end when fine lines and grey hairs creep in. I have always admired the gang for their exuberance for life comingled with maturity.
I love the fact that it all comes down to their friendships! Plus its tough to not love the clothes and shoes!
I love SATC because although it’s about fun things like sex, shoes, and clothes, the women go through hard things too, like divorces and cancer.
I love SATC because its like hanging out with you favorite girlfriends talking about the most racy subjects. It makes it safe to discuss “up the butt” and how your day was in one breath. It made women seem smart and sexy, not weak and inferior if they are single past age 25. I love SATC also for the “eye candy” of the clothes, the men, the women’s ever changing looks and of course the gorgeous NYC background. The show inspired me to own my sexuality, go big in my career and even one day maybe live in NYC. I started watching it again recently and I forgot how freaking AWESOME it is. There really is nothing like it or even close to it on TV now or since then. It makes you look at all the cattiness and faux craziness on the HILLS and want to barf. SATC taught us to hold on to our dearest friends and know someday we will meet the one for us, our MR BIG. I love that the show displayed such different personalities and I loved that the girls had such diverse opinions but still loved each other. You could see yourself in each character and also easily label your friends “Charlotte or Samantha.” SATC truly enriched my life. I can’t help but gush about it, this show is really THAT GOOD. It also made me obsessed with SJP, and fortunately I got to meet her and she was LOVELY. Sigh. I wish SATC would never end. Cross our fingers for a 3rd!
In the first movie, Carrie has the LV Limelight clutch I’ve been DYING to get my paws on! Sigh. I love their love for high end fashion, haha
.-= HC’s last blog post… Chanel takes you to Bondi Beach =-.
I love SATC because the girls are their own family.
I also love SATC because of its depiction of friendship.
I love SATC because while it’s hilarious and the situations (and clothes!) are so improbable, the characters feel really real and relatable on some level.
I love their friendship, it stays stong though everything! Really I love everything about it 🙂
Because they do such extravagant things I know I will never do. I live vicariously through the characters 😉 kossy.in.wonderland (at) gmail.com
.-= Kelsey’s last blog post… What do you want to see MORE of? =-.
I love how much they develop the different characters in the show, and how it’s just such a feel-good show to watch, since I feel like I’ve been watching it for aaaaages, so it’s a lot of nostalgia for me. =)
I love Carrie’s eternal optimism, but in general every single episode has both heart & humor.
I agree about the friendships. My best friends are also thousands of miles away and I miss them so much. I also love the confidence these women have!
OMG i’ve been wanting this perfume since i heard about it many months ago, then I smelled it & absolutely fell in love!!
I love SATC because it inspires me to try to find good close girlfriends so that I can always have someone to catch me when i fall.

Fabulous lunches with the girls!
I love the fashion! I have a feeling SATC 2 will set the trends for summer. I can’t wait to see it!
Everything! I love the shoes, the dresses, the lunches, the shopping, girlfriends, boyfriends *cough* AIDAN *cough*. Most of all, I love how all (or at least most) women can relate to one at least one of the characters and it always seems to bring women together. I’ve even got my boyfriend watching it with me! In one word: FABULOUS!
I also love the friendship because there’s 4 of us also for my best girl friends and we shop and go have lunch. I love how they take the average girl and make her more fabulous.
For me SATC has always been about the fabulous fashion and breezy friendship between the four main characters.
Watching the show gives a feeling of liberation!
Although it’s a fantasy world the 4 women live in, who doesn’t enjoy dreaming for a while?!
For a person who doesn’t splurge on herself and doesn’t have close girl friends, I relish being able to watch four women be fancyfree yet still live so fully and passionately. Although everything ends up being alright within their respective storylines, they are still are shown as flawed creatures.
I love sex and the city because it makes me dream !
I love fashion, beauty and love so …. Sex and the City is the perfect match for me 😉
This show definitely represents my “coming of age.” I started watching it in college, and it was the 1st show I got addicted to after I left home.
I also love the friendship dynamic between the four women! I could only wish that I had friends who would laugh with me during the happy times, cry during the sad times, and hold my hand when I need the support. At least I have the girls of SATC!
Because SITC is so damn glamourous!!! 🙂
I love SATC because of the down-to-earth glamour of Carrie, the conservative chicness of Charlotte, the outgoing bombshell-like behavior of Samantha, and the cynicism that Miranda brings. They’re all amazing in their own ways, and they come together to make a beautiful friendship that I think can be mirrored in real life groups of friends.
I’m seeing the premiere at midnight, in around an hour! So excited.
i love how the fantasy elements are balanced by real life problems. for example, although it often looks like the cast is always dressed out for “events” and are living it up in new york, they still have everyday problems like the rest of us that makes them easy to relate to.
Where else but New York City could be the backdrop for such fabulous fashion and such wonderful and fun characters. We find a little bit of ourselves in Carrie and her entourage. And the shoes OMG the shoes! I want in on all the action.
i love SAtC for so many reasons, but mostly for the storylines. i “found” the show when i was going through a really hard time and it took me away from my problems for a little while, you know? plus, carrie + aidan = LOVE for me. i was always an aidan supporter and i love john corbett! 😉
I love SATC because of the fashion, the big city lifestyle, and the awesome, funny personalities of each girl. They are so relatable and stylish! Every time I watch an episode I find myself wishing I was living their lives. 🙂
.-= Stephanie’s last blog post… Sweet Blogger Award! =-.
the wonderful wardrobe that’s taught me that no shoe is too expensive! hehe just kidding. i love the quirky yet beautiful personalities that each of the characters have.
I adore the shoes as well, but my main love is the relationship between Big & Carrie!
The fashion!
Oh my gosh! Where do I begin… four amazing, strong, completely different women who are so kind to each other, there for each other, and have fun with each other. They live a life I only dream of… Manolo’s!
Everything about this show is an A+… love love loveeeee the way female friendships are portrayed. It’s just FABULOUS!!!!!!!
Oooh this giveaway is so exciting! I hope I win! I’ve been looking for a good perfume and this looks perfect 🙂
I love SATC because not only is it continuous eye-candy, it’s one of those things a girl can always rely on to be there when you need it. We all have those nights were we just want to curl up with a tub of icecream and watch it. I love it!
I just think it’s a great show! I’m always entertained 🙂
SATC first aired when I was 14 and the girls have been part of my life for 10 years now. I love their stories and boyfriends and especially the fashion! 🙂
I love the character stories in this show… it still amazes me how this show can take place amidst such a fashion fantasy setting, but the characters still come out feeling very real and relateable… even to someone like me who will never be a high flier in NYC.
I love SATC because it’s humorous and always cheers me up. I love Carrie’s job as a columnist (I’ve dabbled in journalism and love it), I also love Charlotte’s cute personality.
I love it because, as visually glossy as it is, the writing is emotionally real. The relationship dynamics between the girls (and their dates) isn’t cliche or romanticized. I can picture my girlfriends and myself having the same types of conversations and the same ups and downs. In fact, we have had many. To me, it’s about a close group of friends and how they love, support and are loyal to each other. There’s nothing better than that! 🙂
Friendship & Lots of Laughs & Tears!
I loved Sex & The City because Kim Catrell was the classiest cougar I know! LOL
She was the epitome of self confidence and oozed sensuality. Thats what I want to be like when I grow up!
The one liners, the crazy situations, the clothes, the relationships… what’s not to love? But I still hate Carrie for cheating on Aidan!
Please include me in the giveaway. I love Sex in the City. I enjoy the relationships the ladies have with each other. They can always call on each other for any kind of help. Thank you.

I love SATC because it shows the bond and friendship between the four women, something we would all dream of, and also, of course, the fashion!
I love the friendship the four women share. They are all different in their own way but in they end they always stick together. It reminds me of my closest friends. And of course, they all have a great sense of style!
The friendships among the SATC ladies is why I watch and like SATC!
Other than the fabulous fashion, I love the fact that every character makes me laugh in their own silly ways. Carrie has a great witty sense of humour! Charlotte’s innocence makes me smile. Samantha’s sexy ways make me giggle. Miranda has a sarcasm you can’t miss!! LOVE IT 😀

I love SATC because it inspires me to keep on dreaming even at the age of 39…to someday meet my Mr. Big.
.-= Myla Palisoc’s last blog post… Do you believe in angels? =-.
I love SATC , not only for the fashion, but because each episode is very good and I haven’t been disappointed with anything yet.
I loved that with SATC the creators “went there.” Many shows would have been, “we can’t do that on tv.” SATC did it! They were very bold and daring and that in itself inspires me.
I love s&tc mostly for the (sometimes crazy) relationships that all the girls have with each other.. it really pulled me into the show cause i could really relate to them =). my second fave has to be the fashion =P my roommate and i even wanted to marathon a few eps to get some fashion advice before we hit the mall!
I love the fashion and SHOES! But I also love it for the friendship and Big.
And it makes me laugh and puts me in a good mood. I don’t think i’ll ever tire of Sex in the City.
I love the SATC ladies… their confidence, their attitude, and most of all, their friendship.
I want a big closet!!!!!
.-= Charis’s last blog post… 11 miles…YES! =-.
I love Sex and the city because it speaks to me…
their friendship, up and downs, love life…
I love the fun friend vibe and of course the crazy stuff they wear.
the clothes, the shoes, the friendships, the love!
i love the show, because they are real go getters. they are at the heart of it all true to their own needs and wants. they take care of each other first.
I love the male characters, so unique and true to characters in real life.
I love Sex and the City because of all the beautiful fashion, the relationships between the women, and the comedy too. Watching the show was always a good time.
Too much to even say!! It helps me when I’m struggling with relationships (the secret love episode especially!), it gives me the inspiration for fashion, confidence and plain ol’ good times I need, not to mention that they’re like my girls. I especially love how crude the show is, showing that women can be just as much horn dogs as men can, which is true XD
definitely because of new york city! i would love to have a chance to live there for a while.
Oh gosh! How do I begin?? I love SATC because my friends and I relate to all of them! It’s also something my girlfriends and I share together. Sometimes we would just hang out at one of our apartments and have an SATC marathon. Often we find ourselves quoting the show, I know it’s silly, but we love it so much that we connect it to our lives. The situations the ladies had encountered on the show is very realistic, too. I love that SATC shows the side of women that’s rarely shown on television. We can’t forget about their incredible sense of style!
I just think it’s a well-written show!
I just loved the bond that those four women share!

I love SATC because it inspires me to keep dreaming (at 40) of ending up with my Mr. Big one day…and a huge closet.
I love Sex and the City because the four girls show that you do not have to be perfect in order to be fabulous. Throughout the show, they’ve made mistakes and have had some embarrassing moments. However, at the end of the day, the ladies are confident, fun, and have great friends 🙂
I love Sex and the City because the girls are so fun. I can relate every girl to one of my own friends. Plus, the fashion is amazing!
I love Sex And The City because they’re sisters in fashion, love, heart break, and whatever else life throws their way. Through thin or thin (lol), good, bad, or ugly purse they’re there for each other.
I JUST came back from watching the SATC 2!
I lalaloveeee sex and the city because of all the SHOES! and fashion (even though sometimes Carrie’s wardrobe is questionable at times)
I love the tight-knit relationship Carrie has with he girls, cos it reminds me so much of me and my girls, and i feel like every group usually has a ‘carrie’, ‘miranda’, ‘charlotte’ and ‘samantha’ (I’m the Carrie in my group BTW).
I love the relationship stories they have during the show because, it resembles real relationships, none of that cliche, predictable stuff thats always on. Sometimes, you don’t always get a happy ending, and thats okay!
but MOST of all, I love Mr. Big and Carrie’s journey <33
I love Sex and the City because I love the friendship between those four beautiful ladies. Having good girlfriends is so important.
I love SATC because no matter what they are always there for each other.
