Something I'll never forget is how many times, after watching the Sex and the City movie, I tried to pull off the Carrie Bradshaw outfit you see right here. Carrie stood there admiring her closet in separates that appeared so effortless and cool - and she was at home, just dressing for herself. Carrie actually layered a tunic dress over a skirt twice in the film (I counted), but I couldn't get over how perfectly she mastered proportions here, so that just the right amount of pleated skirt was revealed beneath the hemline of her tee. I can't even tell you how many different combinations I hand-selected from my own wardrobe to try to nail this exact look.
For me, that excitement extends to the HBO series, which is now being rebooted with a spinoff, And Just Like That... for which we're already promised more inspiring Carrie outfits that she takes from the confines of her own home straight onto the streets. It's pretty iconic how her white-trimmed sport shorts looked adorable with tube tops and heeled thong sandals when Carrie strolled out to the street midday, taking a break from work to greet Aidan Shaw. And there were numerous times she spilled her heart out about Big right onto the page, working from her laptop near the window in a glamorous furry coat or pajamas and pearls.
Carrie crafted her at-home aesthetic with her own brand of quirk, never opting for just any old sweatsuit, and I can't wait to see more of that. In my recent time at home, I've found that fashionable WFH gear boosts my mood, and I can only imagine how it'd feel to have Carrie's closet to choose from. Fortunately, it's easier than you might think to re-create so many of Carrie's more laid-back style moments. Scroll through to get inspired, and consider ditching the sweatpants for something a tad more fabulous while you're watching all the new AJLT episodes to come.
