Style Harmony

Samantha Jones looks HOTTER than ever in the second installment of SATC. She is an inspiration to all women of her age; 50-something has never looked more fabulous and desirable. I wonder if there’s a little of Samantha in all of us… style-wise, I mean:-) Samantha’s alluring style exudes confidence; it is loud, bold and all WOMAN. She is not afraid to show of her curves and I think women who can do that can be very attractive inside-out. You don’t have to show a lot of skin, just a sneak preview will do! Add some Sam style into your wardrobe and your social/love life will definitely spice up! To get her look, you need big chunky embellished belts, chandelier earrings, animal prints; anything that is loud and bright. I got this gorgeous teal colour top from a Thai designer trade fair recently for below SGD$100. I can wear a sheer long-sleeved tee underneath with slim-cut pants for work and just on it’s own with opaque tights, chunky earrings and peep toe boots for a night outing.

Whether you are a Sex and the City (SATC) die-hard fan or not, you have to love the fashion in the movie! Be it Carrie’s dramatic skirts, Samantha’s va-va-voom dresses, Charlotte’s romantic frocks or Miranda’s masculine yet flirty maxis, there is a little something in the styles for each of us. However, to have the exact pieces worn as worn by the starlets in the movie, be prepared to splash USD$10million – estimated wardrobe budget for the movie according to Cosmopolitan! As you know, there is always a way to look like them or close enough, for less:-) If you want to carry a little SATC style to work, try one of these pretty earrings (only SGD$15 from Bangkok) which is exotic yet subtle enough for office or adorn a neutral-coloured wrap dress with a multi-coloured fun bangle; which reminds me of Miranda’s Hermes striped maxi she wore on the desert (see picture on right)
