After Much Ado...Sex and the City is Finally Here!

Yep, you heard me. Finally. After four years of anxious waiting and wishing and hoping, the fabulous New York gals of Sex and the City are back, and better than ever. I really mean that. I've been watching each and every media report pertaining to the movie, the premieres, etc., and it seems like Carrie, Samantha, Miranda, and Charlotte, and even Mr. Big have gotten better with age. Well, it's only been for years...but that's like a decade in showbiz.

When we first left off, Carrie was back in New York with Big, Samantha was with boyfriend Smith, Charlotte and Harry were planning on adopting a little girl from China, and Miranda was living with Steve, Brady, and her mother-in-law Mary. All in all, the series ended on a very high note because it seemed as though everyone was at piece and happy with their lives. However, Sex and the City is a show filled with drama and intrigue...and I can only assume the movie will be no different. Although the movie is sure to be fabulous, I have to admit that I'm most excited about the fashion.

Here we have the four glamour gals in a clip from the movie. Samantha is wearing a red Thierry Mugler jacket, matching Valentino skirt, and a Fendi bag. Miranda is in an Alberta Ferretti dress with shoes by Luciano Padovan. Ms. Carrie Bradshaw is decked out in a full Ralph Lauren outfit with her signature Manolo Blahniks. Last but not least, Charlotte York is ever-so-classy in Prada.

It has often been said that New York City is the unofficial 5th character of Sex and the City, so I found it to be extra strange that the movie had its first official premiere in London. Anyway, here are the four ladies, chic as can be.

Let me start with Sarah Jessica Parker in what some have called the most controversial outfit she's ever worn. The dress and shoes are by Alexander McQueen, but the peculiar aspect of the look is easily the Phillip Treacy hat. It basically looks like a little hat with a tree sprout growing out of it. Haute or not? I say not...but SJP really wanted to make a fashion statement in probably the biggest movie premiere of her life, and she did just that. Cynthia Nixon is wearing a black lower-than-low cut Calvin Klein, Kim Cattrall is in a red Vivienne Westwood dress, and Kristin Davis is wearing a vintage fuscia number.

Their next stop was Berlin, Germany. Sarah Jessica Parker dazzled in a body-hugging Versace, Kristin Davis wore a green 40's style Oscar de la Renta dress with black Louboutins, Cynthia Nixon looked refined in a sleek low-cut black gown, and Kim Cattrall wore a very complicated, slightly unflattering orange dress.

And now for the big guns...the New York City premiere! At last! The ladies did not disappoint. The theme of the night was clearly metallic (with the exception of Cynthia Nixon in white). Let me start with my favorite. Sarah Jessica Parker looked AMAZING in Nina Ricci (and redeemed herself for the previously mentioned tree-hat). Up next: Kristin Davis who looked stunning in a pleated gold Donna Karan creation. Cynthia Nixon was very ethereal in a white Narciso Rodriguez gown. Finally, Kim Cattrall looked über trendy in a strapless Vivienne Westwood.

David Beckham Has Taken Over the World!!!

His full name is David Robert Joseph Beckham, but he's known in the UK as Becks, and in the US as David Beckham...the Soccer Savior. He was born in London, and lived there until he signed with Manchester United at age 17. Since then, his soccer (football) accolades are beyond stellar, and now he's been summoned to save soccer in the United States.

Beckham's new deal with the Los Angeles Galaxy is so lucrative, he now has the highest salary of any MLS player in history! Even more, his numerous contracts and endorsements have made him, along with his fabulous wife Victoria and their kids some very wealthy individuals. That is, wealthy and stylish. I know I usually write about stylish females, but David Beckham deserves a special mention because I truly believe that he's one of the trendiest men in the world. Not only is he stylish, but his look is very versatile. I've seen him with long hair, short hair, no hair, a mohawk, etc. and he still maintains a devilishly handsome look at all times.

For example, here he is in a casual-dressy look with a simple white button-down shirt, a chocolate brown Armani sportcoat, topped off with a very chic scarf. I'm not gonna lie, VERY few men out there can pull this look off without seeming pretentious, so I think it goes without saying that Becks has the gift of impeccable style.

$699.00


Here he is again looking casual, yet refined in a navy blue polo shirt, khakis, aviators, and an Omega watch. This ensemble truly shows that very often, less is more. He isn't trying too hard to look flashy, yet he's still presentable to the ever-present paparazzi.

$4,249.00

I've already mentioned what I believe to be Beckham's best asset...his hair. He changes that hair as often as I change handbags...

Just Where Would the World Be Without Kate Moss?

Ms. Katherine Ann Moss, aka Kate Moss, is everyone's favorite bad-girl supermodel. She's the Brit that won't quit. Kate Moss has truly revolutionized the definition of style, while simultaneously making us hate ourselves. How does this little lady accomplish such a feat? That's it--she's little. In fact, Moss made her stamp on the fashion world by popularizing the heroin chic look in the '90s. If you don't recall this fad, it essentially involved being so thin, you looked like you were strung out on heroin, but still looking chic at the same time.

Anyway, Kate was born in London on January 16, 1974...which means she's 34 years old!!! I wanna know her skin care secrets because I'm only 19 and she looks younger than me. Kate was discovered at the ripe age of 14 in an airport and the rest...is history.

Now she's a juggernaut of fashion, one of the highest-paid models in history, and the mother of a 5 year old daughter. Aside from her personal woes (the cocaine scandal), Moss has remained a revolutionary fashion icon because not only has she been on top of just about every best-dressed list, but she's also responsible for beaucoup celebrity fashion trends. The first one being Uggs.

When I first saw these cuddly boots a few years ago, I thought they were wretched. Then (like two seconds later), I fell in love with them. Thank you Kate Moss. Here is the original devotee...and some fabulous copycats (Eva Longoria and Jennifer Aniston).

$120.00

She also made denim cut-off short shorts pretty famous. Check her out in a $165.00 pair from Siwy Denim.

You could also credit Kate Moss for bringing back the over-the-knee high boot...and I do. Pairing skinny jeans with high boots not only accentuates her waifish body frame, it makes her look taller. Here she is wearing a pair of oh-so-chic Stuart Weitzmans.

$475.00

Last but not least, she made it cool to wair high-waisted jeans.
