Life Lessons I Learned from Carrie Bradshaw

The best outfits often come from the most unexpected combinations.

Dating all the wrong guys makes it that much easier to look for the right one.

Very few women can get away with their bra straps showing, and I am not one of them.

Equal parts modesty and confidence mix beautifully.

You can't force what's not meant to be.

Using the preface, "I couldn't help but wonder" makes almost any statement sound more eloquent.

Sexy is messy hair and a great pair of shoes.

There is nothing in life that good girlfriends can't cure, or at least make better.

Being young, single, and in New York City isn't a circumstance. It's a privilege.

Being a writer and living in a studio apartment IS all it's cracked up to be. I am my favorite cliche.
