I'm Back With More Sex... And Shoes!!!

Ok, people! So I've been a little busy lately with uni and work, so haven't really worked on my blog.. So my sincere apologies for that! But I'm back and ready to get this going again!

So as I've said before, this blog is not just about SATC, it's about admiring the lifestyle of these women, loving NYC, and what it's like being a single gal... (though I do hope this will change some day)))

What I want to talk about today, is shoes!!! Yeah, I have a thing for them. Well, what girl doesn't! And those girls who say they don't, well, obviously they don't really SATC that much, haha! Not being judgemental here, but whenever I feel kind of sad or a little tired and worn up, I do tend to go shopping for shoesss!!! Unlike tiny tops, short dresses, jeans, they always seem to fit! No matter what size you are, a shoe will always be there for you.

Been cruising around Amazon recently and found of that they sell shoes too! What a world we live in.. I know it's not everyone's thing to shop online, but as I live in a quite small city, the variety of shoes here is kinda limited, therefore I see nothing criminal in ordering some pretty pumps online. So far I think I've ordered only 2 pairs, but fortunately they fit me quite well.

Here they are, my lovely pumps :)

1. Steve Madden



2. Jessica Simpson

PS not a big fan of Jessica's songs, but these pumps are lovely :)

Amazon does have a great variety. I was also thinking of getting these shoes, but need to save up some money first!

Just a small number of pumps that raised my interest.. So much more to come ;)

Sex and the City - Funny Moments

I know.. YouTube can really kill a lot of time, but you still gotta love it for being able to find absolutely anything online. For instance, I was bored in the library and decided to cheer myself up!!! And what better way to do that? Yes, watch some of the funniest moments of SATC. As I've seen the show more that a couple of times, context for me is not necessary. Jokes are funny even without it. So enjoy your portion of laughter :)

Oh, you gotta love the screenwriters of Sex and the City. Witty, witty and once more, witty!!!

Those words - New York City...

Throughout the whole filming process, 99% of the time the TV show was based in New York City. This wonderfully diverse and multicultural city where everything is possible!!!

In my list of cities to visit, NYC has been the number ONE destination since I can really remember. And I think this dream will finally come true next August... I hope, need to save some money first. But if you believe in yourself and the importance of the goal, it'll definitely come true. And if everything goes according to plan, my two best girlfriends will join me. I can already imagine going up the Statue of Liberty, walking on 5th Avenue, going to Barneys (at least to glaze at everything), and of course dancing and clubbing every single night!!! I'm sure there is no better place for nightlife than NYC. So much variety, so many different cultures, all mixed into this unreal crowd. 

And I imagine everything going so extremely fun, that sometimes I'm a little afraid that New York might disappoint a little.. But lets hope. Because I want to believe that this city is really something unique and very very special. Cause every time I watch another SATC episode, I cannot imagine how many fabulous places there are - all those galleries of contemporary art, cosy cafes, incredible shops with cheap vintage clothes, and those bars and cocktail lounges with Cosmos... Have a feeling August 2012 can easily become the best month of my life so far. So wish all the best to me :)

PS My top 5 places I want to visit in New York City

Charlotte York's Funny Quotes

Ok. I love Charlotte. Who doesn't? She's absolutely adorable, funny and, as Carrie once wrote, ''Charlotte York, my dear friend, and an eternal optimist''...

Yes, that's all about her. She's the one that believes in true love. She's the one that believes in soul mates. She's the one who's always searching for the one and only. And how glad was I when she finally met him. Harry... I love Harry. Sure, he's not the typical 'good-looking guy', but he's real! He's incredibly supportive and understanding. He's just so funny! He makes you laugh all the time! And a good sense of humor is always attractive in a man. I hate people who can't take a laugh at themselves and who take everything seriously. That's why Harry and Charlotte match so well.

So, ladies and gentlemen, here are some of Charlotte's memorable quotes!

 

I can't, Brian. I want to, but I can't. I mean, actually no, that's not true. I don't want to. Or maybe I do. I don't know what I want. But I'm afraid if I don't, you'll dump me. And if I do, then I'll be the up-the-butt girl. And I don't want to be the up-the-butt girl, because I mean... Men don't marry up-the-butt girl. Whoever heard of Mrs. Up-The-Butt? No, no, no. I can't. I want children and nice bedding, and I just can't handle this right now.  (S01E04)

I've been dating since I was fifteen. I'm exhausted. Where is he?  (S03E01)

He raped my face. I'm never dating again. (S03E05)

I proposed to myself. (S03E09)

Trey, you have a boner... I can't discuss my notes if you have a boner. (S04E01)

My vagina's depressed. (S04E02)

I have to start keeping a vagina journal. (S04E02)

Trey, I am tired of being married to your penis. (S04E04)

It's like we live in the Museum of Natural Ugliness! (S04E05)

I hate his name, Harry, because he is, everywhere but his head. (S05E08)

  I'm having a Jewish wedding and I look like Hitler! (S06E08)
 

[to Big] I curse the day you were born! (SATC, movie I)

My Very Own 'Sex and the City' Gift Set!!!

So, Ladies! You won't believe what I've received today from the post office. Yes, my very own 'Sex and the City: The Completer Series (Collector's Gift Set)' from Amazon. And you know what? I absolutely love it!!!

As a true SATC fan, I absolutely had to have this gift set all to myself! Of course, I had all the 6 seasons of SATC on DVD before, but this still was like a necessity for me! I needed to have all that in a pretty little box. And guess what, there are some very nice things inside it. For example, apart from the DVD on 19 discs, there is an additional 20th disc with featurettes, games, and more. There's also this pink velvet spiral binder with various color pictures of the ladies and scenes from the show and short summaries of each episode (which are very helpful!!!). I know, I sound like a kid here, but I just love it. It's like my new 'special box' and no one gets to touch it :)

So if you want to buy this gift set for yourself or a girlfriend of yours, who is crazy about SATC like me, do not hesitate to order it through Amazon (and nowhere else, cause we know how people on the internet may fool you). I always order from Amazon, cause I know they are REAL and they will deliver everything safely and on time!

There's also this 'Deluxe' version of the gift set, which obviously costs more and gives you some more products (like the 2 movies and a fancier box), but I personally went with the cheaper verions, because I'm not a big fan of the movies... Yes, I've watched them, but I don't have this desire to watch them over and over again. Unlike the show though, that I watched multiple times!!!

But if you're interested, you can buy it from Amazon as well! Here's the product link!

Hope you ladies enjoy your gift set (that is if you get one) ;)

Yours,

MK (aka SATC freak) :)

Are Women & Men From Different Planets?!

Ok.. Some people may find this question tricky, some unnecessary, but I do believe in its importance. So, we all know that females and males are WAY different. But we all agree on the fact that women tend to be more emotional, while men are considered to be more rational and straightforward.

Oh, these crazy women...

So do women really rely on their emotions too often? Lets take the example of finding a boyfriend (cliche, but whatever). Ok, when we think about it, what should we start with? Do we make a rational list of things he should possess (as be intelligent, super good looking, rich, understanding, kind, funny, etc.)? NO. But what we do (at least what I do) is mostly rely on my feelings and perceptions. When I feel that he's so good to be around with, when I wake up with the thought of him, those characteristics mentioned above don't really matter. He may not have money, be not that good looking, it just has to feel right... We have to be on the same emotional level. 

I guess men feel the same way too. Therefore, I must proclaim that people are irrational beings... We may understand that the guy or girl is not right for us, but still something keeps us so connected to the person. He may even cause us pain at times, but you think that it's worth fighting for. We do like to suffer a bit, just to feel those moments of happiness even stronger.

So what does this ultimately lead to? Are we really that different? Ummm... from my exerience, NO!!! First and foremost, we are all human beings that treasure such things as love, family, friends, our home. We may look and dress completely different, but we have the same goals and ambitions. And that is to be HAPPY with our lives and live every day to the full of it.

I just have to quote John Lennon. What a genius man he was. Not only genius, but incredibly humane...

 When I was 5 years old, 

my mother always told me that 

happiness was the key to life. 

When I went to school, 

they asked me what I wanted

to be when I grew up. 

I wrote down ‘happy.’ 

They told me I didn’t 

understand the assignment, 

and I told them they 

didn’t understand life. 

Manolo Blahnik Heaven...

Ok, girls! Lets be honest? Which one of you has never been jealous of Carrie's closet (or should I say her Manolo's)? Well, don't know about you, but I've always had this thing (=love) for shoes, even though I don't have that many. Not because I don't like them, but simply because I can't afford it right now. But lets not talk about the sad side of the story :)

Oh, what I'd give to have these Manolos... And I will have them some day, I'm 100000%%% certain about that! As I'm currently at uni now, I don't have a full-time job. But as soon as I graduate and get a good and interesting job, my first big paycheck will go on a pair

of Manolos...

          

and Louboutins...

and Jimmy Choos...

and Charlotte Olympia...

Hmmm... the list can obviously go on forever. But you get the idea - A girl doesn't really need that much!!! ;)

Yours,

MK
