Celebrity Style: SATC 2 Premiere

Celebrity Style: SATC 2 Premiere

The wait is over.  Sex and the City 2 hits theaters tonight at midnight – as if we even need to tell you that.  The mobs of women in stilettos swilling martinis (we heard tales of some who even smuggled in cosmos in their purses when the first movie hit theaters) are likely to be legendary. Our advice: carry your most sturdy handbag – you may need it to whack rogue seat-stealers away from your row. If hand-to-handbag combat sounds a bit to serious for you, then just wait and see the movie next week when things die down. In the meantime, check out these photos from the SATC 2 premiere: 

SJP- My favorite ensemble of the four. I like the cut of the dress and her makeup and hair look nice. The color of the dress seems a bit garish – but I am going to blame that on the saturation of the photo, and I feel like it’s lacking a little sparkle. And maybe I’m being nit-picky, but I don’t love the shoes with the dress.

Kim Cattrall- Again with the yellow! It’s such a happy color, so I don’t know why I am feeling such a vendetta towards it, but alas. I am. Not liking this yellow. It looks a little washed out – especially next to SJP’s yellow dress.  Kim Cattrall’s body is smokin’ hot, which means she can wear just about any dress she wants, so I am sad that she picked this one that seems a bit dull. However, her hair looks fab.

Cynthia Nixon- Ol’ Cindy played it safe with a strapless black gown, and she looks nice in it. I like the detail on the bust, but the color leaves me feeling lacking. I’m not sure if you’ve noticed but, it’s spring time Cynthia! Though I didn’t approve of the yellows, at least they were on target with the season. 

And finally…
Kristen Davis- I must admit, I’m biased. I am totally a “Charlotte,” but I still think Kristin got a lot of things right. Sure it looks a little bit like Barbie on prom night (which is to say VERY pink) but the shade goes well with her skin and hair (which looks great, per usual). The fit is also very flattering. 

So what do you think Shop Talkers? Which SATC gal do you think nailed it on premiere night? Did I get it wrong? Are you secretly hoping Carrie leaves Big for Aiden? Let’s hear it in the comments.

I think you're right about everything you said. If God sent down someone to be the Shop Talk genius of 2010, it would be you.

I will have to agree with you on SJP. Although, I wouldn't have chosen the dress, she of course rocks it. She can pull off anything though. And the yellow looks great with her New York tan and "sun kissed" highlights. Kim was a little washed out to me. Cynthia was boring, her dress reminded me of what I wore to my senior prom... and not in a good way. and Kristen a little too pink for me taste. Well said, Chandler.

So right about Kim's dress washing her out, but I'm a total Samantha so anything she does I of course will approve of (with the exception of some seriously bad wardrobe choices in the first SATC like the way 80's neon blazers). Cynthia's was just bad. The cut was totally winter and didn't show off her figure. And good of Charlotte is always up to par.
