I think lots of women will agree with me that Charlotte on Sex and the City has a great classic style that any woman would love to imitate. That’s why this news is rather unexpected, but exciting nonetheless – Kristin Davis is creating a reduced-price line for Belk Inc., a Southern retail chain. Davis hails from Columbia, South Carolina, and grew up shopping at Belk, she told FabSugar.

Her brand will have sportswear, activewear, sleepwear, handbags, jewelry, belts and footwear. Phew! That’s a lot to just start out with. The price range is $30 to $240 and will debut in the south in August.

PATRICIA FIELD'S DESTINATION STYLE

Ms. Field is quite the busy woman these days, even with the cancellation of Cashmere Mafia. There is the frenzy surrounding the Sex And The City movie, her ongoing collaboration with Payless, styling videos for one of the hottest songbirds in Japan, to name a few. But her plate just got a little fuller with her latest collaboration with the Home Shopping Network. Patricia and her long-time design partner, David Dalrymple, have created a 50-piece collection that ranges from sportswear to denim, dresses and accessories to be sold exclusively on HSN for five days starting September 23. The idea, according to HSN’s Chief Executive Officer, Mindy Grossman, is to build buzz around the brand with an event during New York Fashion Week, which will also include a runway show and will be broadcast on HSN and HSN.com at launch time.

Many of the pieces, which span her career as a stylist and designer, will be recognizable to viewers, Field told WWD. The looks for sale range from the now iconic dress that Sarah Jessica’s character Carrie wore in the SATC movie, her famous T-shirt dresses with her Martine illustrations and a sequin blazer, to name a few. So ladies, if you can’t get to New York City to check out her Patricia Field store on Bowery, then this is the next best thing.

CARRIE BRADSHAW IS A MAC GIRL

I know several people in my department are seething and chanting, “Down with Macs, PCs rule,” under their breath as they read this. It’s quite a war between Macs and PCs. And, if anyone paid attention, I mean really paid attention, Carrie Bradshaw was a Mac girl. According to the Unofficial Apple Weblog, she used the original Powerbook G3 in season one, she moved up to a WallStreet and then she switched to a Pismo until the series ended.

The Sex and the City movie’s official website has a feature that lets you peruse Carrie's Macbook, read her random sticky notes, look through her photos and answer trivia questions that Charlotte, Miranda, Samantha or Big ask you on iChat based on what you find on her computer.

It’s kind of kitschy and fun, and hey, it could sway fans of the show/movie to go Mac. Hey, anything’s possible, PCers.

PATRICIA FIELD, INTERNATIONAL STYLIST

Patricia Field is best known for outfitting the girls on Sex and the City, and that probably helped land her the jobs of outfitting them on the set of the movie as well as outfitting the ladies of Cashmere Mafia. Her styling has made counterparts in Japan jealous – namely a pop star named Namie Amuro. Field has been styling the Japanese pop princess in Vidal Sassoon commercials – which look a lot like music videos. Kind of reminds me of Britney Spears’ Pepsi commercials. Well, before she went a bit crazy. Check it out here.

SATC MOVIE COMING TO A THEATRE NEAR YOU SOON

Ah, just seeing the initials SATC (Sex and the City), makes me yearn for a fruity martini and pine for the asphalt jungle that was the backdrop for the former HBO show and the upcoming movie. I admit, as much as I have tried, I have not been able to resist all of the pictures and trailers circulating on the internet that quietly beckon my attention. How can one not be anxious and thrilled that on May 30th, the girls — Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon, Kim Cattrall and Kristin Davis — will be back in fabulous fashionable force? Who doesn’t want to know what hijinks Samantha is up to or if Smith J. is back? Does Brady have a sibling yet? Is little Elizabeth Taylor et all still part of the story line? Will Big finally marry Carrie and what will the other starring characters — the wardrobe — be like? Considering the cult following the show had, and by all the blog accounts, the movie will be an instant hit. We will have to wait to see, but in the meantime, cosmopolitan anyone?
