EVERY girl has wanted to look like Ms Bradshaw at some point in her life – or at least we have all wanted her wardrobe.
And every one of us has our favourite outfit, whether it’s the ille feuille grey dress she ends up falling asleep in during the grand finale of the last series, or the questionable cowgirl get-up she wears in the Hamptons.
We may not have her budget, but it’s still possible to add a touch of Sex and the City to our attire with a corsage pinned to a shift dress or a pair of fabulous (if high street) heels.

But if you do ever get the excuse to wear a pink tutu over layers and layers of net, then make the most of it.
If Carrie were in Liverpool and wanted to dabble in a bit of star spotting she could do worse than ordering her signature Cosmopolitan at Blue, where this week’s fashion shoot is set.
