Leave the practical black heels in the wardrobe this year and instead add a splash of colour. In true Carrie style step out in a pair of heels decorated with a gorgeous corsage. They’re guaranteed to brighten up a dreary January day!
Or, if you’re feeling sexy in the bedroom and want to try something new then a pair of seriously seductive fluffy marabou mules (http://www.sexyshoes.co.uk/caress-401f.html) are for you. Carrie slipped these on for Berger in the 4th series to eliminate the ‘Sexpectation’ (sex with a new partner that sucks instead of sizzles).And, finally, with the help of the marabou shoes, the other shoe dropped…..!

Charlotte York
Charlotte usually embodies a sweet preppy style, whether she’s holidaying in the Hamptons, at a restaurant on a date or hanging out with the girls. Her outfits are always accessorized by a cute but sophisticated bag and shoes combo to complete her elegant style. Charlotte always looks well put together, without appearing too contrived.
So, if you don’t have Park Avenue pocket money to play with, but love Charlotte’s cute and classic style don’t despair and think you have to slum it in the style stakes. Choose elegant and sophisticated pieces, such as neutral peep toe heels and a matching clutch and look for subtle detailing, that adds interest but isn’t over the top. A pair of cute button detail boots, ideally in cream and black work extremely well for a classy but casual look, perfect for a spot of shopping or schmoozing at the art gallery a’ la Charlotte. All you need is a flattering cable neck sweater to ooze Park Avenue chic.
