From brunch with friends to public humiliation, Sex and the City’s leading lady had a style for every occasion After 27 years, 94 episodes, a questionable three-series reboot and a pair of films we’d rather not talk about, last week’s “heavy-handed” finale of And Just Like That marked the last appearance of TV’s best-dressed character: Carrie Bradshaw. As we say a final farewell, for this week’s newsletter we asked Guardian writers for their most memorable Carrie outfits.I’ll start with Continue reading...

2 w. ago ‘Carrie had nothing to do but wander around in couture’: how Sex and the City’s characters deserved better

Revisiting Samantha, Charlotte and Carrie was a magical prospect. But And Just Like That insulted their intelligence, obscured them with poorly written newbies, left them with far too little to do – and now they’re goneAfter 27 years, some of TV’s most beloved characters have left our screens for ever. Throughout Sex and the City, Carrie Bradshaw chronicled her loves, infatuations, affairs, heartbreaks, friendships, high fashion, homes, work and more, all over a cosmopolitan or five. Throughout what would turn out to be the final season of its spin-off, And Just Like That, she finally ended her extremely on/off 20-year-relationship with country boy Aidan, a man revived for the series with a cruel streak and all the subtlety of Elmer Fudd, and slowly bought furniture for her enormous mansion.In many ways, the entire series was an inglorious swansong. And Just Like That first appeared in 2021, and devotees of the original might have held a tentative flicker of hope that in returning t...

2 w. ago From cosmopolitans to vibrators, the cultural heft of Sex and the City

Just some of the ways that SATC helped to revolutionise the way we dress, eat, date, exercise and workBefore Sex and the City, the cosmopolitan was just vodka, cranberry juice, Cointreau and lime juice. Afterwards it was a symbol of girlfriends, sex, flirting and freedom. But it wasn’t only the image of the pink cocktail that the show revolutionised.From the time it first aired in 1998, the show – and to a lesser extent its descendant, And Just Like That – has shaped the way we dress, eat, drink, date, exercise and work. What it did for the cosmo it also did for everything from nameplate necklaces to vibrators, catapulting them to pop-culture phenomenon status. Continue reading...

2 w. ago Wildly incoherent, utterly flummoxing, blissful: how And Just Like That rewrote the rules of TV

The Sex and the City spinoff – which ends this week – is so bizarre it has barely made sense as a television show. Unless you think of it as an attempt to redefine the whole genre Sex and the City’s divisive spin-off And Just Like That is set to end after three bizarre seasons and a deluge of critical contempt, with bemused fans losing it on Reddit, and articles about how the programme became a hate watch. There has been little heartache in the discourse after the announcement of the show’s demise, the general consensus being: good. But to these people, I say – you’re wrong! But also, I understand. There is always an element of fear in contemplating change, in engaging with the rapid advancement of modernity, and I would like to make the case for And Just Like That being a product of exactly that.It feels analogous to a comment a friend of mine once made during a conversation about the best oven pizzas, when someone posited Dr Oetker pizzas as a contender: “It’s delicious, it’s some...

last month The Confessions of Samuel Pepys by Guy de la Bédoyère review – sex and the city

Newly decoded extracts from his diaries expose the celebrated 17th-century diarist and naval administrator as a rapacious sexual predatorSamuel Pepys’s diary, which covers 1660 to 1669, is regarded as one of the great classic texts in the English language. Words spill out of Pepys – 1.25m of them – as he bustles around London, building a successful career as a naval administrator while navigating the double trauma of the plague and the Great Fire of London. Historians have long gone to the diary for details of middle-class life during the mid‑17th century: the seamy streets, the watermen, the taverns and, as Pepys moves up the greasy pole, the court and the king. Best of all is his eye for the picturesque detail: the way, for instance, on the morning of 4 September 1666, as fire licks around his house, Pepys buries a choice parmesan cheese in the garden with the intention of keeping it safe.Not all of the diary is in English, though.
