Sex and the City Movie Sequel (SATC 2): Latest News (January 2010)

Sex and the City Movie 2 Trailer

Greetings and Happy New Year, fellow SATC fans! It’s hard to believe that it’s 2010 already. And we all know what that means – less than five months now until May 28 when the Sex & the City movie sequel hits theatres worldwide! And what better way to kick off one of our first updates of 2010 than with a sneak peek at what is sure to be one of the blockbusters of the year? That’s right: the official trailer for the sex and the city 2 movie has been released! Take a look below and see what you think.

Our fabulous SATC foursome – Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker), Miranda Hobbes-Brady (Cynthia Nixon), Samantha Jones (Kim Cattrall) and Charlotte York-Goldenblatt (Kristen Davis) – are looking as spectacular as ever.

Sex and the City Movie 2: The Fashion

You may recall from our first Sex and the City movie update back in May 2009 that there had been some speculation as to whether the sequel would be as fashionable as the original. However, I think the Sex and the City trailer puts those fears to rest. Carrie | Sarah Jessica Parker | SJP | Sex and the City | SATC 2 | Movie | Sequel In less than a minute-and-a-half, we’re treated to plenty of glam and glitz, starting with a shot of Carrie in the +$200,000 ensemble (the chic short White Halston Heritage dress: $325; Solange Azagury-Partridge necklace: $198,200; Mykita & Bernhard Wilhelm “Franz” sunglasses: $299; Chanel clutch: $1,500; Gold Pigalle Louboutin heels: $3,200) that she sports on the official movie poster.

And lest we get the impression that our heroine has lost her sense of fashion whimsy, there’s a shot of Carrie exiting a vehicle in a Black “J’Adore Dior 8” tee paired with a voluminous purple and pewter taffeta skirt, silver bolero and tropical tote. I just love it!

Carrie | Sarah Jessica Parker | SJP | Sex and the City | SATC 2 | Movie | Sequel

We’re also treated to a ballroom full of high-voltage looks at what I’m guessing is the much buzzed-about Stanford (Willie Garson) and Anthony (Mario Cantone) wedding that we spoilered in our November Sex and the City movie update. There’s Samantha’s va-va-voom plunging Gold gown and sequined bag (with adorable top-hat wearing puppy in tow!), Miranda’s slinky Black and White show-stopper, Charlotte’s iridescent Black strapless with a feminine sweetheart neckline and Carrie’s, uh, Black and White cater-waiter ensemble complete with bow-tie?? Hmmm. Looks like it could be a “Best Man” outfit to me ;-)

Charlotte York-Goldenblatt | Kristen Davis | Carrie | Sarah Jessica Parker | SJP | Samantha Jones | Kim Cattrall | Miranda Hobbes-Brady | Cynthia Nixon | Sex and the City | SATC 2 | Movie

But it’s the more exotic Sex and the City 2 looks that have set my style heart a flutter! When we see Carrie and company draped in sumptuous jewel tones as they raise their glasses to make a toast against the Moroccan backdrop, my inner fashionista practically squeals with delight. All four Sex and the City actresses look spectacular! In other on-location shots, Carrie is positively radiant in a head scarf while Kim Cattrall brings the poolside sexy in a daring, blinged-out swimsuit that I couldn’t carry off in my wildest dreams. Of course, on Kim, it looks simply fab! As usual, Sex and the City stylist Patricia Field has served up the perfect combination of glam and whimsy. I think I’ll have to start going to more movies this winter just so I can catch the trailer on the big screen and get my SATC fashion fix in HD :)

Sex and the City Movie 2: Are Louboutins The New Manolos?

There can be no doubt that Manolo Blahnik will forever be inextricably linked with Sex and the City. But have Louboutins emerged as the new “It” Shoe on the SATC set? We already know that SJP is wearing Gold Christian Louboutin heels on the SATC official movie poster. And then there’s the report earlier this Fall by entertainment website Zap2It.com stating, “Word from the set is that Carrie Bradshaw has switched her allegiance to the red soles of Christian Louboutin.” The website speculates that a noticeable absence of Manolos could stem from some comments that the iconic shoe designer made last year. Speaking to the Sunday Telegraph, Blahnik said, “If people talk to me about Sex and the City, I get sick.” He continued, “It's sweet, but it becomes too much and I don't feel comfortable. I have never wanted to be a celebrity designer.” Referring to the first movie’s now famous $895 Royal Blue pumps with crystal buckle that were to be the first occupants of Carrie's closet in her new home with Big, the 67-year-old Blahnik admitted, “Well, we had a very good year last year, thanks to those stupid satin shoes. That shoe saved our company.” I don’t get the impression that Blahnik’s intention was to “bite the hand that feeds him,” but I can certainly see how his choice of words leaves something to be desired. As to which designer(s) our fashionistas will be sporting on the big screen come May (Brian Atwood? YSL? Jimmy Choo?), we’ll have to wait and see. Until then, I’ll be searching as usual for some up-close shots of the stars in their designer shoes! After all, everyone needs a hobby :)

Sex and the City Movie 2: In Morocco!

Beyond the fierce fashion, the Sex and the City movie trailer does provide us with some additional information – mainly, that it’s been two years since we last saw our Fab Four. And Carrie’s voice-over indicates that those two years have been pretty eventful:

It’s been two years. And in two years, amazing things can happen. Things you never thought would happen in a million years. And just when you think you've seen it all, it hits you ... you haven't seen anything yet.

Unfortunately for those of us who love our spoilers, the Sex and the City 2 movie trailer doesn’t give away any new deets as to what those “amazing things” are. We already know about the Stanford – Anthony wedding, and, since we posted about the Morocco shoot in November, the desert footage doesn’t come as a surprise. Of course, it does leave me even more excited to find out what (or who!) brings them there.

Sex and the City Movie 2: 80s Flashback

One thing that does strike me though is the scene in which Carrie is standing before what appears to be the bedroom closet in her old apartment. It’s certainly not the lust-worthy walk-in one that we remember from the first Sex and the City movie. I initially thought that this scene might be part of the 80s flashback sequence that we mentioned in our October Sex and the City 2 update, but it looks like we’re seeing the current Carrie – not 80s Carrie with the poodle perm. So why is she there? If you have any thoughts, I’d love to hear them!

Carrie | Sarah Jessica Parker | SJP | Sex and the City | SATC 2 | Movie | Sequel

Sex and the City Movie 2: Casting Rumours Continue

We’ve been closely following the behind-the-scenes Sex and the City  movie 2 casting rumors, and we’ve confirmed some goodies in recent months (Liza! Penelope! Tim!). One of the more exciting rumors emerged in mid-December when the Internet was abuzz with news that John Corbett would reprise his role as Carrie’s former flame, Aidan Shaw. Reports of Corbett’s involvement began circulating when GossipCop.com noted that the actor had been allegedly spotted in Morocco during the same time period in which Sex and the City 2 had been filming. Although the entertainment site stated that it could not confirm whether Corbett had indeed been in Morocco, it did take a firm stand on the truth of the Aidan rumors:

Yes, Aidan is slated to be in the film and he and Carrie have an indiscretion. That’s all we’re going to say, except that their transgression leads to a BIG move on the part of Mr. Big.

However, it appears that the rumored return of Aidan is just that – a rumor. Only recently the actor himself staunchly denied that he would be making an appearance in the SATC movie sequel. In an interview with AccessHollywood.com, the 48 year-old Corbett said that he will not be in the Sex and the City sequel, adding that he wasn’t even in Morocco. The actor explained that the alleged photos were actually taken years ago. “I was in Istanbul about six years ago and somebody put a picture up and said I was in Morocco,” he said. I have to admit that I’m a little bit heartbroken since the rumor had raised my hopes for an Aidan return. Despite the fact that I’m on “Team Big” when it comes to Carrie, I always enjoyed the character and I’m sure that Sex and the City writer-director Michael Patrick-King could have developed a fantastic love triangle for the big screen. Ah well, I’ll bet that he has something even better in store for us!

Sex and the City Movie 3: Rumor Mill

Is Sex and the City 3 already in the works? The SATC movie sequel hasn’t hit theatres yet, but the inevitable trilogy rumors are already circulating. In fact, in it’s Sex and the City girls in film No 3 story, Britain’s OK! Magazine is reporting that production on a third installment in the Sex and the City movie franchise has begun. According to the tabloid, the stars shot scenes for SATC 3 this past Fall while continuing production on the sequel that is due to hit theatres this May. The mag quotes an unnamed source in New York as saying,

There is definitely a third movie on the go. Those in the know realized a lot of the scenes didn’t tie in with the plot in the sequel. That’s where the rumour about them shooting spoiler scenes came from. But the truth is they are for the third film. When the girls signed up for the first movie, they actually agreed to do all three. It makes sense for them to film as much of the second and third movies back to back.

As much as I’d love to believe that Sex and the City 3 is in the works, I’m inclined to believe the Splash News report which addressed the rumor as soon as it emerged. The Splash News piece Sex And The City third movie rumours “not true” appeared on the MSN Entertainment website in November, quoting yet another unnamed production source: “[The rumours are] definitely not true. There is no script for part three, so they would not know what to shoot."

If Sex and the City 3 had indeed already begun filming, I suspect that we would have heard more about it by now. Of course, that won’t keep me from hoping that it won’t happen!

Well that’s all for now, my fellow Sex and the City fans. I hope that your new year is off to a healthy (and chic!) start. Please let us know what you think of the trailer! Yours, in SATC 2 movie anticipation!

Sex and the City, Designer Handbags

Designer handbags are as vital as breathing for the girls of Sex and the City. Remember the movie? Designer handbags are rented in the same manner as apartments and cars! So exactly what’s so special about a pouch simply designed to hold our keys, wallets and cell phones?

 Sex And The City | SATC | Movie | Sequel

For starters, the bags of these high-fashion women cost more than can even fit inside their little pouch. After some research of both the HBO Sex and the City series and the movie, we were finally able to pinpoint only one purse that cost less than $1500!! The show decides to parade Carrie around in expensive Manolo Blahnik shoes and Timmy Woods bags only to have her return to a mildly dingy apartment. Sounds weird, right? Not really.

While this may seem like an extravagant lifestyle only seen on the silver screen, reality does collide with the show. In fact, it was Samantha’s desire for a Hermes Birkin bag that made fans realize that their favorite characters struggle to secure high end designer labels just like everyone else. Sex and the City exposed the $5000 bill and 2 year wait to obtain one of these coveted designer handbags – and even using Lucy Liu as a pseudo-name couldn’t snag the bag for Samantha. Women around the world could relate to having the perfect handbag out of reach but within sight.

Sex and the City has us all drooling over the designer labels; Hermes Birkin, Chanel, Fendi, Nancy Gonzalez, Louis Vuitton, and more grace the screen leaving us in both awe of their beauty and anger of their nearly unattainable status. But we must give credit where credit is due. For as much as the fashionistas of SATC relish their expensive toys, they are occasionally spotted at vintage stores that house no labels. Carrie even wore a “no-label” wedding dress on her big day – although she did balance it with the Dior Gladiators she uses to walk down the aisle.

Basically, a handbag is how a woman is presented. It provides the cover for whatever dirty secrets hide inside; the number of a guy you’re not supposed to be seeing, the makeup you pretended you don’t wear because you’re already flawless, and whatever else you wish to hide. Carrie, Miranda, Charlotte, and Samantha have it right. Make sure your handbag represents your style and how you want to be seen – even if you have to break the bank to get there….lol.

With 2009 now fast coming to an end, we’re getting closer to the Sex and the City movie sequel, May 28, 2010. I can’t wait to see what’s install for us when it comes to the fashion, especially the handbags!

Cyber Monday Shopping Tips

So there will be lots of great Cyber Monday deals on Cyber Monday 2009 and this day should offer you the best deals and prices you will see possibly for the next six to twelve months. In fact, we expect to see some phenomenal deals. It’s important to be organized so as to be best able to take advantage of the sale prices being offered. We suggest you plan your shopping as early as you can and also try to shop early as no doubt some items will have limited quantities and I dare say that some of the more popular online retail sites will experience “traffic jambs.”

As well as all the latest techno gadgets that we all seem to want, we do hope that you will find some great designer clothing and perhaps that pair of designer shoes and that special designer handbag that you’ve been salivating all year for.

Good luck with your Cyber Monday 2009 shopping and if you follow us on twitter we'll be bringing you any breaking news on the latest Cyber Monday deals on designer clothing, shoes, handbags and jewelry as the sales deets are rolled out. Once again good luck and enjoy the shopping!.

Thanksgiving Holiday Sales

It is almost time for Thanksgiving dinner and of course, the biggest shopping day of the year! All the Holiday lookbooks are full of beautiful gift ideas for everyone on your list and perhaps a little pampering for yourself! Of course, this holiday season will be a little different for many, trying to save where they can. Of course knowing where to shop is the key to finding the best deals on Black Friday and getting a great head start to holiday shopping. Like the 50% Off All Sweaters for you and kids and baby cozy fleece styles at GAP through November 20 and the 38% Off everything Thanksgiving Sale with code turkey38 on now though Cyber Monday at Lindsay Lou boutique. And then there’s the 40% to 80% OFF original Neiman Marcus prices. on November 24 and 25 at Last Call Stores. Below are details on these and several other great holiday sales worth checking out.

Thanksgiving Sale at Saks Fifth Avenue

For their Thanksgiving Sale Saks Fifth Avenue have taken up to 60% OFF their online prices until November 28!!! That's up to 60% OFF on a top lineup of fashion designers. When it comes to women clothing you’ll find designer clothing by Burberry, Dior, Nanette Lepore, D&G and many, many more.

From the women’s designer clothing included in the Saks Fifth Avenue Thanksgiving Sale, I especially love the Mackage coats and jackets sale collection. In particular I love the Tonal Plaid Jacket and the Joelle Double-Breasted Coat. The Joelle Double-Breasted Coat features a trench styling in a rich wool blend from Italy, with a wide leather belt and stunning front buttons. This gorgeous coat was originally priced at $580 but on sale at $348 during this Thanksgiving Sale.

I also like this super chic Metallic Silk Halter by Milly reduced from $235 to a Thanksgiving Sale price of $84.54 and when it comes to chic clothing you can’t beat the color and style of this halter.

I could quite easily go crazy at Saks Fifth Avenue’s Thanksgiving Sale. I also love the Nicole Miller Strapless Cocktail Dress originally priced at $440 but having a Thanksgiving sale price of $263.90 with its feature exquisite allover pattern and slender fit. However my pick from this sale are the cuffed shorts by Organic originally priced at $370.00 but discounted down to $111.54 for this Thanksgiving sale. When it comes to chic clothing it’s hard to beat these summertime style blooms with effortless ease in cuffed, high-waisted design and finished with a pretty rose print and front pleats. They’re definitely my pick. They are so cute and would just look super sexy and chic with heels.

The Saks Fifth Avenue Thanksgiving Sale also has a good line-up of designer shoes by Jimmy Choo, Stuart Weitzman, Gucci and Marc by Marc Jacobs, as well as designer handbags by Christian Louboutin, Furla, L.A.M.B. and Bottega Veneta, just to mention a few.

Whenever in NYC, as a little girl I remember holding her hand while gazing at the L&T flagship store Christmas windows, a world-famous New York holiday tradition. Then the strolls with her through the aisles of designer clothing and designer shoes as well as designer handbags, not to mention the jewelry and cosmetics counters. They just had every kind of make-up and it seemed that all the best dressed people loved to shop there! These trips to Lord & Taylor were my first introduction to the world of fashion, beauty and style. They certainly have left a mesmerizing impression!

Shoshanna and Anlo Fall Sample Sale: Up to 75% Off

The official start of the holiday shopping season may be a couple of weeks away, but it’s never too early to engage in a little pre-holiday retail warm-up! And what better way to get in the shopping spirit than with a fab designer sample sale? On November 11th and November 12th, you can shop an incredible selection of designer jeans, designer tops, designer dresses and swimwear at the Shoshanna Showroom in NYC. And as if one designer sample sale isn’t enough, this sample sale includes two fabulous designer lines: Shoshanna and Anlo! With sample sale discounts of up to 75% off retail, this is what I call fashion nirvana! Here are just a few of the stylish steals that you’ll find at this designer sample sale.

Designer Sample Sale - Anlo Petra Skinny Jeans

Skinny jeans are HOT again and are definitely this winter’s must haves with many stylists predicting that they will be the trend for the season! From the Shoshanna and Anlo designer sample sale collection you've got a great opportunity to pick up some fab fall and winter pieces at sample sale prices. For example, take your look to new heights with Anlo’s ultra-elongating Petra jean shown below. The dark Oslo wash gives this jean a polished feel, while the classic skinny cut creates a svelte silhouette. As an added bonus, the slightly shorter inseam makes this designer jean perfect for pairing with flats, heels or this season’s super-hot shoe-booties! For a chic, model-esque look, I love this designer jean paired with a slim-fitting shirt or a simple tank as shown, but it would also look fabulous with a cozy winter sweater or a relaxed, trendy boyfriend blazer and one of this Fall’s ubiquitous embellished tees. Originally priced at $198, this versatile Anlo designer jean is on sale at the Shoshanna / Anlo designer sample sale for just $74.

Anlo | Petra | Designer | Jeans | Sample Sale

Designer Sample Sale - Anlo Kate Skinny Jeans

You can channel your inner celebrity with the fashion ankle skinny shown below. The Anlo Kate Skinny has been photographed on celebs from Miley Cyrus to Gossip Girl’s Leighton Meester (just this month!), making it one of the hottest styles of the year. The charcoal Smoke hue will make a great addition to your jean wardrobe in a closet full of blue. But it’s the pyramid studs at the ankle that put the Kate Skinny at the top of my must-have list. For a chic, sophisticated look, dressed up for a night out on the town with stiletto high heels, to balance out the sexy factor I would wear this designer jean with a soft cardi-wrap or a luxe cape coat. But for a slightly punk vibe, it would look awesome with a leather jacket that hits at the hip or below! After all, who says good girls can’t be a little bad sometimes? ;-)  Originally priced at $202, this celeb-fave Anlo designer jean is now on sale for $75.

Anlo | Kate Skinny | Designer | Jeans | Sample Sale

Designer Sample Sale – Anlo Macey Skirt

Also from Anlo, you’ll definitely be raising the style quotient in the high-waisted Macey Skirt shown below. The flirty bow-tie at the waist gives this denim skirt an extra dose of femininity, while the flat side pockets sit beautifully at the hip to create a perfect hourglass shape. The dark Pamplona wash gives this designer denim a refined feel, making it ideal for both day and night. The ultimate multi-tasker, the Anlo Macey skirt can also be worn below the waist, allowing different looks for different body types. No matter how you choose to wear it though, this sassy mini is a guaranteed hit. Made in the USA, the Anlo Macey Skirt normally retails for $188. However, it can be yours for just $60 at this incredible designer sample sale.

Anlo | Designer | Macey Skirt | Sample Sale

Designer Sample Sale – Shoshanna Sheath Dress

When it comes to comfort and ease, it’s hard to beat a sheath dress. Shoshanna puts a contemporary spin on this fashion favorite with the stunning silk sheath below. While the classic cut of this designer dress may be simple, the ultra-modern print is anything but. Pleating detail at the waist makes this Shoshanna style a true standout, and the silk fabric and lining give it an extra opulent feel. Adding to the appeal, the body-skimming cut is a universal figure flatterer. What more could a fashionista ask for? Originally priced at $310, this Shoshanna designer dress is a steal at $150.

Shoshanna | Designer | Sheath Dress | Sample Sale

Designer Sample Sale – Shoshanna Shawl Cardigan

Looking for something to keep you warm this winter without sacrificing style? Look no further than the gorgeous Shoshanna shawl cardigan shown below. I love the rich Eggplant hue and the oh-so-chic graduated striping. With its versatile cut sleeves, this 100% wool designer cardigan can be worn over a tee or tank as shown, or over a fitted long-sleeved sweater for a more fashion-forward look. (Pewter would look fab!) Regularly priced at $350, this Shoshanna shawl designer cardigan has been reduced to just $100. Talk about looking like a million for next to nothing!

Shoshanna | Shawl Cardigan | Sample Sale

Designer Sample Sale – Shoshanna Shirred Strapless Dress

Last but definitely not least, you’ll be turning heads in the Shoshanna shirred strapless dress below. This silk designer dress features an ultra-feminine sweetheart neckline and knot detailing at the bust. I especially love the ruching detail at the empire waist It gives this flirty and fab style an added dose of oomph! (Plus, it’s super-flattering if you’re lucky enough to have some curves on top.) Perfect for a night on the town with the girls or a special evening out, this strapless designer dress is regularly priced at $319. However, it can be yours for just $150 purchased at the Shoshanna and Anlo designer sample sale.
