"Welcome to the age of un-innocence." -Carrie Bradshaw
Sex and the City depicts the fictional lavish social lives of four women living in New York City. Each character wanted different things, Samantha wanted sex, Charlotte wanted love, Miranda wanted power, and Carrie...well she just wanted a Cosmopolitan and new Manolo's. The series focuses around the love (or sex) lives of these women, while also incorporating major brand placement of the best of the best of New York. The series let middle class American women (like myself) think that they could afford an apartment in Manhattan along with a walk-in closet full of designer shoes and clothes. But Sex and The City taught us more than an unrealistic lifestyle of a freelancer writer making it in the Big Apple. The undertone lessons about life, love and friendship make everyone want to walk in Carrie's shoes.
Here are some of my most relatable quotes by Sex and the City author Candace Bushnell.
"No matter who broke your heart, or how long it takes to heal, you’ll never get through it without your friends."
"But the most exciting, challenging, and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you can find someone to love the you you love, well, that's just fabulous."
“Man may have discovered fire, but women discovered how to play with it.”
“Maybe our girlfriends are our soul-mates and guys are just people to have fun with.”
“I like my money right where I can see it…hanging in my closet”
“There are so many beautiful girls around that after a while you start looking for someone who can make you laugh”
"One woman's trash is another woman's treasure."
"They say nothing lasts forever; dreams change, trends come and go, but friendships never go out of style"
