‘sex and the city’… we see carrie as a young adult, working in new york city with her best friends and lots and lots of boyfriends. but what was she like as a teenager? well, we might now have our answer!

‘sex and the city’ author candace bushnell is set to publish a book entitled ‘the carrie diaries’ that will chronicle the fashionista’s life before the cameras started rolling. we’ll see carrie in high-school, dealing with all the perils of the teenage days – mother issues, first loves, friends and enemies galore! the book will also address how carrie became a writer.

‘the carrie diaries’ will hit shelves april 27, 2010 – conveniently close to the ‘sex and the city 2′ movie premiere in may! should be a good month for the die-hards.

i dove into the world of manolos & louis vuitton, finally renting the ‘sex and the city’ movie. i know, i’m a little late on the bandwagon. like 10 years late! i’ve never even seen a full episode on tv. but i decided to go there. so i’ll give it to ya straight. why i liked it & why i didn’t.

of course the clothes were fabulous, that’s a given. i applaud the visual aspects of the movie. but to be honest – that was about all i liked. first off, it was too dang LONG! i found myself wishing it would just end already. and there was waaayy too much going on. they were happy, sad, happy, single, married, divorced, reconciled, then sad, then happy all over again. i really wish they would’ve spent time developing a storyline instead of cutting up several & pasting them back together at the end.
there were also some very strange transitions. i remember at one point we were laughing at carrie & the next we were (or maybe just me) covering my eyes while samantha’s neighbor had a threesome! but i will say samantha was my favorite character. she gave the movie the witty banter that it needed.

overall – hey, why not – it was exactly what fans of the movie wanted it to be. true to the tv show, fun, fashionable & all about the laaaadies!
