It’s been a while since I’ve done a Carrie Bradshaw inspired outfit. I used to do these all the time and actually had a Carrie Bradshaw series which you can see here. A Carrie outfit always has a mix of different prints/textures with a sophisticated edge, and this silk beaded bag is what really reminded me of Carrie’s style. This hand embroidered bag from Jamin Puech with semi-precious stones and braided pearl details is a true gem. It is seriously the most beautiful handbag I’ve ever owned. I love the vibrant color and the sequin details that line the bottom of the bag. There is so much to see at every angle of this bag, making it a true work of art.
Since I’m wearing such a fancy beaded bag, I didn’t want the outfit to be too dressed up, but rather be more street style with a luxe vibe. So my grey fur bolero from Jocelyn was the perfect choice. This fur bolero is the softest coat ever, it feels like a shaggy pillow! I usually gravitate towards pink or purple colors (which this bolero also comes in), but I thought this wintery grey would be a nice change and go with more outfits. I sized up on the bolero and went with a Medium so that I can wear it with chunky sweaters. I paired the coat with a wide sleeve mauve sweater and midi polka dot skirt for a trendy touch.
I completed the outfit with white ankle booties that are my shoe of choice this Winter. There is something so effortlessly chic about white boots, they instantly streamline and elevate a look. Lastly, I added a pair of white vintage cuff earrings. This is one of my favorite outfits to date, everything just works together, even the building in the background. I hope you guys like this look as much as I do!

Love the bag and the coat! But I am such a geek, I was distracted by the building behind you…I thought it was the building from Ghostbusters.
Such a Carrie look!! Such a cute outfit and I’m loving the shots!
I would never think about wearing all these textures together…but you did it effortlessly! What a unique bag by the way
This is a beautiful look Mary. Love how you put everything together and that bag is gorgeous!

SO very Carrie! Loveee that jacket!!!
Inspired combination of textures: the silky skirt, the chunky corduroy shirt, the ‘floofy’ bolero — and that extraordinary beaded purse!. They all work together beautifully. I *love* the red and orange building behind you, too — the location brilliantly showcases your look. What an artist!
