10 Years of Sex: A tribute to Carrie's incredible, memorable style

photos: HBOSince I've been a freelance writer in real life, there were many, many times where I would get irrationally angry at Carrie Bradshaw's completely unrealistic fashion budget and even at her imaginary ham-handed columns (there's no way that God made little green apples that an editor would let you repeat the same "I had to wonder..." construction with such frequency). Still, I've interviewed SJP and I love her and I know we're talking fantasy here-I am not above admitting the great (if guilty) pleasure I derived from watching Ms. Bradshaw's sartorial and romantic escapades over the past decade. Here's my small (and completely not comprehensive) tribute.

Oh, Lady, you wore a big fur, classic aviators and the best heels to...a baseball game! (applause)

This is from when she briefly dated that politician-it is awesome in a Jackie-O-meticulous way.

My favorite kind of Carrie. Earthy, breezy, well-accessorized.
I have been searching for a vintage dress like this for about 7.5 years.

Remember how you were all pissed because the dress you wanted to wear was stuck at the dry cleaners and you wore this and then ran into Big? I think it worked out fine.










The big necklaces were fantastic.

It's insane and a little bit unfair that you look so good in white mesh.

Even though you were totally wrong for each other, I kind of wanted you to marry Aidan in this dress that night and just see if maybe it could work out like arranged marriages sometimes do.

Seriously, a white blazer and a yellow Mickey Mouse t-shirt? Genius.

Yeah, like Enid had a chance with Alexandr while you were wearing this.













Everything you put on in Paris was incredible, including this happy dress in a sad moment.













When I interviewed Sarah Jessica Parker, she said this was her favorite dress ever on the show...














...but this one was mine.
