Sex And The City

It was the cultural phenomenon of the late nineties and early naughties. Four single, sexy and successful women living and working in New York City. We lived and died with Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte and Miranda's successes, struggles and failures in love, life and work.

Get the girls together and get ready for a Sex And The City marathon, complimented with cosmopolitans, LBDs and lots and lots of gossip.

Party Ideas

• Watch your favourite episode/series. It's going to be tough deciding on just one or two episodes, especially if everyone weighs in on the decision. So be warned that you may end up having more Sex and the City parties than you planned...
• Trivia quiz. Have questions like 'Where did Steve propose to Miranda?' and 'Where does Carrie say her trademark Carrie necklace is from?'. Search for "Sex and the City trivia" to find some suggestions, or come up with your own questions. You may like to have a prize for the winner, such as a cocktail set from Alfresco Emporium or a poster from Picture Store.
