  1. “I will never be the woman with the perfect hair, who can wear white and not spill on it” : Fierce as she is, Carrie never failed to embrace her imperfections, unapologetically so.

2. “I’d like a cheeseburger, large fries and a cosmopolitan!” : She knows a girl can be as much in love with food as fashion.

3. “I like my money where I can see it, hanging in my closet” : You knew very early looking at her that a woman should have impeccable taste.

4. “When one door closes, another shoe box opens” : There’s no one we’d rather credit with popularizing guilt-free retail therapy.

5. “Beauty is fleeting, but a rent-controlled apartment overlooking the park is forever” : She knows finances and stability is as important as everything else.

6. “I’m not afraid of heights, have you seen my shoes?” : Carrie + heels = invincible.

7. “Shopping is my cardio” : One word. Icon.

8. “Single and fabulous, exclamation point” : The best kind of life there is, and she believes it too.

9. “Enjoy yourself! That’s what your 20s are for, your 30s are to learn the lessons, your 40s are to pay for the drinks.” : Her lessons are just as relatable whether you’re in your 20s or 30s.

10. “Maybe our girlfriends are our soulmates, and guys are just people to have fun with” : She’s never one to ditch her girlfriends, her friendships are rock-solid.
