Carrie Bradshaw’s Guide to the Real New York City.The Rules according to Miranda Hobbs.Samantha Jones’s Top Ten Tips for City Girls.

The unforgettable and charming TV character played by the lovely Sarah Jessica Parker on the show "Sex and the city".

I won't hide it, always been a HUGE fan of the show, with its witty writing, great acting and combination of tons of laughter and heartfelt tears, through the crazy stories of the fabulous four single New York gals. I really liked the movie too, and hope the sequel they're just shooting right now lives up to it.

Meanwhile, in lots of places, I still see the girls somewhere... Like this "Carrie-look-alike" interesting woman who shared the boat ride with me today! :-))
