Belk Partners With Kristen Davis

Fans of Sex and The City star, Kristen Davis will be pleased to know that the starlet has partnered with North Carolina Department Store, Belk to offer a line of apparel, shoes, accessories, sleepwear, and sportswear. Davis, known for her conservative-classy styling has carried that influence to the entire collection and can be seen in her basic Alta Patent Pumps, Soriano Flats, and Ally Boot. While we can't argue that the star has remarkable class on and off the set, this new line seems to be a bit ho-hum in our eyes. We wish Belk would have waited for...

At the center of the display was the famed pair of blue satin Manolo Blahnik jeweled pumps. As part of Blahnik's Spring '09 collection, the pump was on "wait-list status" until a week ago. With...

Carrie Bradshaw all grown-up: Sarah Jessica Parker Interview

Recently Emily Nussbaum from the New York Magazine, interviewed Sarah Jessica Parker about her upcoming role as Carrie Bradshaw in the May 30th, Sex and the City Movie. Here is what Sarah had to say about the transition from series to movie... "...Sarah had an intuition that time was running out: “It had this shelf life.” The resulting film, which opens May 30, is no summery lark. Instead, it has a surprisingly serious tone, exploring questions of forgiveness in long-term relationships. The trademark elements are all there—rat-a-tat dialogue, sex scenes, and unsettlingly orgasmic excitement upon access to designer goods—but...

Get Carried Away: Sex and the City Premier London

So, it's almost May..which means the Sex and the City Movie will be opening world wide in 30 days! But where is the debut? We thought NYC, right?

Lipstick Jungle: Louboutin on Set

In NBC's new drama "Lipstick Jungle", we have all been waiting to see the designer references we loved on Sex and The City. Although not as blatant, the show does offer nice references to fashion and design as seen from a working woman's (executive) perspective. According to a recent article in Footwear News, Christian Louboutin has made it on the set via Brook Shields, who plays movie studio exec Wendy Healy. Word has it that Shields is sporting the Louboutin's from her personal stash after declining the show's stylists on-set suggestions and recommendations. Leven Rambin, an actress on the...

Lipstick Jungle Goes for Sophisticated Look

Before Sex and the City, few shoppers knew Jimmy Choos and Manolo Blahniks were luxury shoes. Amy Hale was one of them. Now, she says Jimmy Choo is as familiar as the popular and reasonably priced Nine West shoe brand. 'I probably would have never picked up a Jimmy Choo before the show,' said Hale, a systems analyst at HP and a die-hard Sex and the City fan. Like many viewers, Hale watched the show for its outrageous fashions as much as for its story line. So with Lipstick Jungle, the new series by Sex and the City creator and...
