Sex and the City is a huge guilty pleasure of mine (oh wait, I'm not even guilty). The six hit series and the two feature films that followed have been watched over and over by me and are a great talking point when it comes to girly gossip about men, boys, friendship and life in general. While I see a little of myself in each of the four - and I guess everyone does, that's the whole appeal of the show - Carrie Bradshaw, with her penchant for shoes and the fact that she writes for a living, speaks mostly to me. I've always been a fan of name jewellery; it can be tacky but when it's done right I think it's beautiful. I've had this dainty little necklace for a while now, and like Carrie, it's one of my most treasured pieces. I chose the standard 18" chain and it's the perfect length to wear with anything - it looks especially sweet worn underneath a collar so just the name is peeking through! It's delicate looking but surprisingly good quality, and this kind of thing would make a perfect present for a loved one; or as I always say, for yourself..
Are you a fan of this type of jewellery? Which Sex and the City lady would you say you're most like and why?
This is lovely! The font is really really nice xx
ReplyDeleteOh I love Sex and the City. That's a really good length too, might make a sneaky buy :') <3
ReplyDeleteOh I think this is sweet. I like wee name necklaces. V.cute x
ReplyDeleteIt's so lovely! And the packaging it comes in is so adorable! Bet it looks great on you! xxx
ReplyDeletei love this! I've always been too worried about it look tacky like you said, so only ever gone for name Initial necklaces. This one is so lovely tho, I'll definitely have to have a look for one now i have seen how great quality yours is esp being 18ct! xxx

I got a necklace from this company too, love it :)
ReplyDeleteI used to have a name necklace that My late Grandad bought for me when I was little. I have no idea where it is now, which makes me quite sad. May have to try and find it again!

ReplyDeleteUuu.. I'm definitely a fan of this type of jewelry!

I bought one of these in silver back in 2007, if it's the same company then the price has doubled, but the quality makes it worth it! x
ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty! I am placing an order right now! :)

I'd love one of these, but I'd just want mine to say Carrie, and I feel like that'd be strange. I'd say I'm a cross between Carrie and Miranda x
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute, cant beat a bit of SATC!

I love this it's super cute I would love one these but that maybe says Mummy. Hmmm birthday pressie idea my birthday isn't until July hehe
ReplyDeleteThis is really nice and doesn't look tacky at all :) I'd say I'm definitely most like my name sake Charlotte from Sex and the City
ReplyDelete-x-
This is so cute! :) I'm probably like a mix of Miranda & Charlotte aha :)xxx
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Definitely coveting one of these now. I definitely see a lot of myself in Charlotte and Miranda.... great post!

Oh thats great! I can never find my name whenever they have name stuff in store because I spell it so funny! But I might do this so I can finally have one! I'm so a Carrie!
ReplyDeleteI'd love a necklace like this but with a name as long as mine I'd think it'd look odd! Love it though :) xx

I've seen quite a few of these from different companies and by far, this one is the cutest i've seen because it's quite dainty and cute! I wanted these before but I think I'm over it.

Looks wonderful... I've been looking for a name necklace for a while (also because of SATC), but so many are so tacky looking! This one looks great! Thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteI loveeee name necklaces! Desperately want one now! x
ReplyDeletei really want one of these! x
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! x
ReplyDeleteI have a necklace with an 'A' on the chain :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm sarcastic like Miranda, have similar morals to Charlotte, love fashion like Carrie and not afraid to say what I think like Samantha.
Ahhh.. I want to dig out my box set now..
I've got one of these from the same place and I love it. So cute and timeless xx
ReplyDeletewww.iwishicouldwink.blogspot.co.uk

ReplyDeleteI love these necklaces! I have my own one, I'm not sure where it's from as I got it as a gift but I wear it all the time. They're so kitsch and cute ;p
ReplyDeletehttp://ohheythererachel.blogspot.ie
I love mine! Definitely wish I got the shorter chain though, yours sits in the perfect position.

I love SATC so much, I have an 'A' necklace, but I don't think 'Amy' is long enough to look good :(
ReplyDeletexo
This is so nice, I've been wanting to get one for myself for so long! x
ReplyDeleteI didn't *think* I liked them, but after reading this I suddenly have an urge to buy one. You've proved me wrong!
ReplyDeleteI think you're right about the tackiness, its about finding a perfect balance.
Cute necklace! To be accurate, it's actually not the same font style that Carrie wore on SATC and it does;t have the curl at the end. I have a Carrie necklace (literally) in the same modern script style with the now famous curl on the end, just like Carrie Bradshaw wore. I love it and wear it all the time.
