The 6-Piece Carrie Bradshaw Capsule You Can Buy on the High Street

"I like my money where I can see it: hanging in my closet," goes one of Carrie Bradshaw's most recognisable quips from Sex and the City. But what if your budget doesn't stretch to Manolo heels and monthly Dior splurges? Well, then, your time has come, because all the looks, trends and pieces that kooky ol' Carrie became known for during her time as NYC's leading lady have been filtering back into fashion circles over the past year, and now they've really hit the high street.
From the strappy slingbacks that instantly conjure up her many running-in-heels scenes to the bold colour she was onto way before the rest of us, your favourite affordable fashion stores have been inspired by Carrie Bradshaw herself for 2019. In honour of High Street Week, enjoy Carrie's top trends you can buy without remortgaging.
