she teams simple pussy-bow blouses with peplum skirts and patterned tights, clashes her patterns and already loves a statement heel. by night - the glitz and glam of new york highly influences her style, which becomes more and more stylised (and sponsored) with her internship at interview magazine, and influence of those in the industry.

one of the things i first noticed is that a lot of the fashion, is current. the reason? tcd stylist eric daman (assistant stylist to pat field on s.a.t.c and lead stylist on gossip girl) said "[we'll] also see a lot of H&M and Topshop, and more accessible stores. I think it's important for the viewers at home to have something accessible and attainable." to the point where there's websites dedicated to pinpointing what carrie wore, and where you can buy it (www.thecarriestylediaries.com and www.thecarriediariesstyle.com are just a couple!)... which... handy for me, cos i am in love with that lips cardigan from f21, and won't stop until it's mine.

in conclusion; it turns out i love 80s style after all. the 80s of my memory was all plastic bangles and leg warmers and michael jackon. maybe australia didn't get the 80s the way the rest of the world did; i'm jealous of that. i mean, it's undisputable; the girl has great style. then and now. so, would please join me in my current obsession that is style crushing on a 16yo television character, and thank me later.
have you seen "the carrie diaries"? who's your favourite so far?
