Carrie Bradshaw and friends have spawned many fashion trends over the years which directed New Yorkers towards designer labels. We in Delhi were equally inspired by Carrie's fashion statement that influenced
20-somethings the most. And surprise, surprise! Not just big stores, Sex and the City (SATC) fashion trends are on display in affordable places too. So, if you haven't seen the movie yet and want to make an entrance Carrie Bradshaw style (without having to swipe that plastic too much) here's a style guide for you.

The hottest accessory in Sex and the city II are Carrie Bradshaw's gold-mirrored aviators. Collaboration between the Belgian fashion designer Bernhard Willhelm and the Berlin-based eye-ware company MYKITA, the aviators are pure eye candy.u00a0 We looked for an affordable option and got several hits.

Now, that's a bargain isn't it, especially as we are aware the gold aviators shall be dumped the moment they go out of style!

HAREM STYLE JUMPSUIT:
The harem style jumpsuit, which catches the eye immediately were featured in abundance in the movie. We call it the Abu Dhabi effect.

These jumpsuits are priced at Rs. 899. Just the right price for our young fasionistas. Get ready to mesmerize the crowd in Princess Jasmine style.

SHOES
Here's a famous quip from Carrie Bradshaw which most of us remember from the Sex and the City series, because of her obsession for shoes (c'mon you guys, we think Manolo Blahnik was one of the characters in SATC) cash-strapped Carrie says: "I will literally be the old woman who lives in her shoes". So, Carrie and her love for shoes are pretty well known among fashionistas. SATC II poster features Carrie wearing Vivenne Westwood whiskey-coloured vertiginous gladiator sandals. If you are looking for an affordable replica, your destination is Promod. They have these chocolate brown cork heel wedges with multiple straps giving it the gladiator look priced at Rs. 2500. But if you love flats and are looking for gladiator style sandals your stop should be Sarojini Market. You will find bright coloured (Mustard yellow, grass green, white, hot pink) flat gladiators available at Rs. 350. Go, pick your summer shoes now girls.
