Throughout Sex and the City, Carrie reminded viewers that the film is all about labels and love. While her turbulent romance with Mr. Big is as fickle as ever, here at BlackBook, we're more concerned with the labels and how they're used to tell her story. Our gallery highlights seven fashion concepts from the movie. From the used and abused accessories to the exciting “didn’t see that coming” twists, we bring you our take on the styles that graced the screen.

Um, so Kim Cattrall—the one from SATC that doesn't care for Sarah Jessica Parker and the others—will star in and produce the American adaptation of "Sensitive Skin," a "sex-themed single-camera comedy project set in New York," according to the Hollywood Reporter. But she's not only plagiarizing herself circa Carrie and company, with the older gal unearths her dormant libibo shtick. No, she's also poaching from her 2005 partnership with HBO, the documentary Kim Cattrall: Sexual Intelligence, about an older gal who likes sex. Still not sure whether I'm bored or jealous.

Patricia Fields is either a genius or totally in over her head. The Sex and the City stylist created over 300 looks for the much anticipated summer blockbuster. After diligently following the show—and then re-watching the whole thing this past month—my judgment says that Fields has her own incredibly accomplished shoes to fill, and then some. The show, which more often than not was praised for its sense of fashion, must carry on and present the ladies in the film with the same stylish integrity—300 pieces worth of stylish integrity—which means two costume changes every minute!

"24" was my lover scorned soundtrack, my sweaty alley, rainy night jam. It made me want to smoke cigarettes, sport trench coats, and say things like, "He looked about as inconspicuous as a tarantula on a slice of angel food."

Acting, activism, and future plans for SATC's Mr. Big.

Even among goliath Hollywood blockbusters, Sex and the City is still one of the most anticipated films of the summer. And while Iron Man and Batman try to save the world, Carrie Bradshaw might have an even more difficult feat on her hands -- bagging the commitment-phobic “Mr. Big,” a.k.a. Chris Noth. To Big’s credit, he did man up and do the right thing in the final episode of Sex and the City's television incarnation. He showed up in Paris unannounced, swept Carrie off her feet, and brought her back to her beloved New York and her four best friends. So, where do they all go from here? The worldwide hype for the movie knows no boundaries; iTunes will feature Sex and the City character playlists. “It’s good road trip music,” says Noth of Mr. Big’s picks. After the jump, Noth speaks on Sex and the City, his love of music, humanitarian trips to Cambodia and Vietnam, and his future endeavors.

Google “How 'Sex and the City' ruined New York” and you’ll find Time Out’s list of the things “you can officially blame on 'SATC'” or the New York Post’s reasons that “Carrie and Co. ruined NYC.” The folks over at EW.com don’t see it like that. In a celebration of the show’s “fifth lady”—no, not Jennifer Hudson—they’ve doodled a playful map of the Isle of Manhattan, complete with 41 pinpoints of where the girls laughed, lived, and loved. It’s also a relief to know that we’re not the only ones who see that giant rabbit next to Magnolia Bakery.

Before you and your girlfriends (both biological ladies and those of the "Hey, gurl," bitchslapping, goatee-wearing variety) get sloshed on cosmopolitans and venture out to see the "Sex and the City" movie, you had better protect your peepers with a good long lasting mascara—one that'll last through tears, sweat, humidity, and Bradshaw backlash. Hop to your nearest Clinique counter and pick up Lash Power Mascara Long Wearing Formula, a bargain at only $14 but a priceless insurance policy for beauty.
