Sarah Jessica Parker may as well change her name to Carrie Bradshaw.

Sex and the City might’ve ended in 2005, and she might’ve tried for a movie career, but that failed to launch and since then her only successful movie role is playing Carrie Bradshaw.

Now she’s using Carrie to launch her perfume and WWD even titled their story, “Carrie On.” AND, she’s wearing an Oscar de la Renta dress in the ads. Meanwhile, the packaging and bottle for SJP NYC explodes with so many prints and colors that if you combined Samantha Jones and Carrie Bradshaw into one character and placed her in 1987, she’d be overwhelmed.

Coty’s thrilled to release the floral fragrance around the movie and from the way they talk about “leveraging” the movie release we’re pretty sure they’re going to make her dress up and answer to Carrie for promotional events.

And if that’s not enough Sex and the City for you, HBO’s launching these Sex and the City flats mid-November. Though there’s really nothing to say about that.

Bass Alert! We have yet to personally spy our fair Chuck in the ‘hood shooting this season. But thankfully Nylon offers up a scrumptious fix today in the form of a multi-image foreign ad campaign in their Korean edition, with Miss Waldorf of course. Man, we can’t wait for season 3 to start. {Nylon}

Renaissance Girl: Daisy Lowe talks W-burg, her jewelry line, why she likes to look like a china doll, and making toilets. {W}

Ugh. Just Ugh: You know how we feel about Megan Fox, so you can understand how this news makes us horribly distraught. Really, Mr. Armani? Really? {Fashionologie}

While the thought of another Sex and the City movie makes us kind of nauseous, the fact that we’re missing out on this internship opportunity is even more depressing.

Pat Field and her brilliant team need help dressing the girls for the sequel to Sex and the City: The Movie.

You must be enrolled in school and able to receive academic credit for your work on set. They’ll need you for at least two days a week, though like everyone else would prefer three or four, to run errands, pick up and drop off samples, organize the wardrobe space and of course perform a few administrative tasks, too.

Rumor has it that Patricia Field might part ways with the Sex and the City sequel, over creative differences with Sarah Jessica Parker.

SJP wants Carrie’s wardrobe to be reflective of the recession, which Field is apparently not so into. The flame-haired style maven told Grazia, “I don’t use the recession as a reference for my creativity.”

Whose side are you on?

In these times, we have all had to struggle with balancing our lust for fashion and cautious saving, or just outright lack of funds. And it’s nice that SJP is considering realism. But do we, as viewers, actually want Carrie Bradshaw to cut down on her fabulous and outrageous outfits? Is this one of those times when art doesn’t have to imitate life?

Personally, this strikes us as exactly the right time and place for fashion escapism.

Got Her: Shopping with a friend, crossing the street at Broadway and Spring.

Stalked Her: Because we’ve been feeling nostalgic lately and these jellies, circa 1995 are like the cherry on our nostalgia cake.

Shot Her: Because she’s mixing brights like a pro. That yellow jacket, floral skirt and fluorescent shoes would make Rainbow Brite proud. Oh how we’d love to wear color like this.

She Said: “My style is a simpler and more urban Carrie Bradshaw. My shoes? A dollar at Target last year!”

We Said: Take us shoe shopping, please?

Vivienne Westwood’s added five new styles to her bridal collection.

She’s riding the Sex & the City wave for as long as she can despite her derogatory comments on the film’s fashion. A spokesperson for Dame Viv said, “These five new styles are the latest items to be introduced to our bridal wear at Davies Street following the success of the Carrie wedding dress.”

I was never the kid, I’m still not the girl, who thought twice about a future wedding other than the fact that it involved a Vivienne Westwood dress. I’ve been obsessed with Westwood since I knew what fashion was, but the only way I could justify an extravagant Gold Label gown was by getting married and now that’s over.

So yes, these dresses are stunning, but I’ll never forgive Carrie Bradshaw for making it so damn cliche. And on a side note, wasn’t that dress kind of a symbol, or at least a catalyst for everything that went wrong in the movie?

Remember when Sex and the City: The Movie came out and that Vivienne Westwood wedding dress Carrie gets stood up in turned out to be available in real-life, costing certain SATC obsessives around 30,000 pounds to have the dress made-to-order?

Well, the dress has been rescaled and re-imagined for the average customer (who has about $10,000 on hand), in a shorter, less cinematic version, available as part of Vivienne’s Gold Label on Net-a-Porter.

So if you’re still running around town acting like “a Carrie,” consider your hopes possible - the dress already sold out (they only had it in a size UK10), but we bet an e-mail to Ms Massenet (founder of NaP) could clear the matter up.

That is, if you really want to wed in the commercial version of the world’s most commercially pushed wedding dress.

During a high school field trip some years ago, I noticed that one of my classmates had two different sneakers on. As in, her left sneaker was from one pair, and her right from another. When I asked her about it she looked down, laughed, and said she’d overslept and literally gotten dressed in the dark and didn’t notice, and maybe wouldn’t have, until I asked her about it.

I hadn’t seen anyone else pull the two sneaker move until I saw this picture of Chris Benz from the He’s Just Not That Into You premiere.

A part of me really likes this idea - on the right person, it’s kind of funny, like a nod to junior high fashion antics. But on the wrong person (read: almost everyone, and definitely me), it would look a little like a move made to fit in with the art kids (read: juvenile).

It works on Chris, but Chris is also a tall, thin, cute boy, and it did work on Carrie in that LA episode where she wears different colored Louboutins, but the shades were complementary and designed to be so - plus, it’s TV.

So would you ever try wearing two different shoes at the same time? Or is this a sartorial switch that should only happen by accident?

Word broke awhile back that Julia Roitfeld would be the Spring 09 face of Mango following campaigns with Gap, Tom Ford and Rock & Republic.

She’s joined by her brother and Lily Donaldson beau Vladimir (chosen for their position in “the new generation of European high society”) as well as Dakota Griffith - Melanie and Don Johson’s spawn - in the Spanish chain’s latest campaign.

Carine’s daughter might be super famous within the high fashion industry but we fail to see how she’ll connect to the same customer targeted by Penelope Cruz. Unless of course it’s the fact that she’s so pretty it doesn’t matter what her last name is.

Anyway, Julia poses in a white trench, white jeans and the most Carrie Bradshaw-ish flower we’ve seen in a very long time. They should have had Carine style the shoot - then we might brave this cold for a trip to Mango.

The most successful rip-offs, the things that fly off shelves, are the products directly modeled on something that everyone from the die-hard fashion fan to the suburban high school girl is familiar with.

More Carrie Bradshaw’s Dior gladiators than Margiela.

But we’re guessing these have been knocked off because Rachel Bilson rocked the nude version of the half-sandal, half-boot shoe with some on trend boyfriend jeans last summer, not because Margiela’s the new cerulean.

But will they actually sell? Can Steve Madden market this $170 shoe to the mall going masses? And if so, can it come with an informational packet on how incredible Martin Margiela is and what he’s done for fashion in the past twenty-five plus years?

The best part is you can actually see how insanely luxurious the leather is on the Margiela shoe through this teeny tiny online picture and if they weren’t sold out everywhere, it’d only cost you an extra $400 for a million times more quality.

You didn’t think Carried died with the movie, did you?

Because if you did, you might be so glad to know she’s back - but younger.

Candace Bushnell and Harper Collins have teamed up to bring you, The Carrie Diaries, a two-book deal that explores Carrie’s life as a teenager, and the series of horrible, awkward dates she went on and the cute, but slightly stupid boy from her geometry class that she pined endlessly for in between scenes in Theater.

The books come out in 2010, sure to be followed by that replacement to Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants Darren Star’s been praying for.

Hold on to your Maddens, girls!

Things Vivienne Westwood has done:

1) Opened the SEX Boutique on Kings Road with Malcolm McLaren.

2) Forced Naomi Campbell into 9” heels, upon which she inevitably fell to the ground.

3) Gave Carrie the wedding dress of her dreams

and now -

4) Curated an album of her 16 favorite songs entitled Catwalk Compilation to be released at Selfridges on September 15

Vivienne likens the mix CD to her design choices - that it may “refer to the past, but it’s always projected into this heroic future.” So we fully expect it to be a little schizophrenic, but totally cool - the perfect soundtrack to a few Naomi moments in our bedroom.

Oops. We put some time and effort into a Sergio Rossi DIY a couple of months ago.

They didn’t look perfect, but they were still fun and definitely had more character than these.

The paint drip started popping up in places both vintage and new, but Steve Madden got so distracted by Carrie Bradshaw’s shoes, he forgot to copy one of the coolest summer trends.

Which gave GoJane time to make what they call the “Stripe Colorblock Heel”. The drip is almost exactly the same. The problem is the high cut toe, the chunky-too-short heel, and the plastic looking sheen.

And for $18.99? We dare you to wear them more than once.

Got Her: Outside Fashionista favorite, The NoHo Star.

Stalked Her: Because her black-patent sandals are a refreshing alternative amidst a sea of gladiators (not that we don’t love them, too) and because the thick black zipper running the length of her spine caught our eye but didn’t scream asylum.

Shot Her: Because the more we looked at her shoes, the more their shape reminded us of Carrie Bradshaw’s now infamous Diors - but a million times more wearable.

She Says: “Can I see the picture? Wait, I’m not going to be one of those ‘Don’ts’ with the black bar across my eyes - am I?”

We Say: Definitely not!

Today’s WWD reports that Hearst is suing a new Vegas hotel chain over their name:

Cosmopolitan.

The magazine giant thinks Vegas women will confuse the hotel with its magazine, and think that a tacky oasis of bikini waxes, nameplate necklaces, and one night stands will compromise the integrity of their pages, which are filled with bikini waxes, nameplate necklaces, and one night stands.

You can see where we’re going with this, so we’ll stop.

But just like Jordache getting touchy over Gossip Girl’s “XOXO” tagline, this new crackdown on the Cosmo brand might have bigger implications:

For instance, what happens to the drink?

Can Hearst sue HBO for name-dropping Carrie Bradshaw’s favorite cocktail? Will New York bartenders simply rename it “The Bradshaw” or “The Big” or the “You Must Be a Tourist Because You’re Drinking This”?

And furthermore, when do we get to sue The Soap Network for their awful Fashionista Diaries?!

This may only matter to Refinery 29 staffers, but here goes:

Last night at the Men.Style.com party (or should we call it Lohan-gate?), designer Alison Lewis said she’d split with her design partner, Rachel Antonoff.

The two 26-year-olds were the chicks behind Mooka Kinney, the indie jumper label best known for getting a romper on Lily Donaldson during a summer paparazzi shoot.

They also have a dress on Carrie Bradshaw in the upcoming Sex and the City movie, which we’re seeing tonight at a screening (we’ll let you know…).

Alison will be merging with jewelry designer Samantha House on her new label, called Lewis + House.

I used to live in the West Village, and let me tell you, walking past Magnolia bakery on your way to and from work every day is disastrous. The last thing in the world I would have needed is a free cupcake.

But now that I live in Brooklyn and have lost the ten pounds I gained during that six month sublet, I can’t think of anything better.

Only catch is, in order to get your free cupcake, you have to buy something at the newly opened Coach store down the street.

This is bad because it means supporting the outdoor mall that now lives on Bleecker, but good because you can get cute shoes (without c’s please) and a delicious pink cupcake.

Just please don’t eat it on Carrie Bradshaw’s stoop.
