Introducing Carrie Bradshaw's Eclectic Capsule Wardrobe—7 Things She'd Call Essential for 2024

Carrie Bradshaw is under fire right now on the internet. No one will ever complain about her sense of style, so that's not what the fuss is about. People are collectively taking a look at the way she handled her relationships on the show and questioning Carrie's motives. Was she drowning too much in her closet of incredible clothes to notice that a lot of the faults in her love life came from her own decisions? Victim mentality aside, we are never tuning in to Sex and the City for relationship advice—we're here for a good look at the clothes.

Since the show became streamable on Netflix, we've taken glimpses at Carrie in every season, and we've started to think more and more about what she'd wear in 2024. We've concluded that it would be almost the same exact thing. We've rounded up the statement pieces that the chaotic Carrie would scrummage together and call a capsule wardrobe. Of course,Best Knockoff Luxury Clothing editors are already wearing what Carrie would want us to, so the styling inspo is coming from us as well. Enjoy.

If you're familiar with Carrie Bradshaw's style, you know that it's a place where you should always expect the unexpected, especially when it comes to prints. Patricia Field had a way of finding items you wouldn't expect to go together and joining them in unison. This is a fun one to try at home if you'd like for your existing wardrobe to do more for you.

Structured bags are no stranger to Carrie's style. Whenever she was trying to channel her inner working girl, she'd be sure to pull one out. Paired with a fun and flirty skirt, a briefcase is never something you have to take so seriously.

If you're a minimalist and this entire article terrified you, we're going to end on a note that every fashion person should agree with. A tailored vest is essential to even someone as eclectic and vibrant as Carrie Bradshaw. Keep it simple, or style it with a clashing top—the opportunities are endless.
