Wonder No More With These 20 Gifts for ‘Sex and the City’ Fans
It’s safe to say I'm a Sex and the City enthusiast. I’ve watched every episode at least half a dozen times (OK, or dozed off to it — comfort food for the late-night soul, I say), my Twitter username is @66PerriStreet (Carrie’s address, my name spelling), and I probably quote the show at least once a week. With the recent debut of the series sequel And Just Like That…, it’s been the perfect excuse to text with friends about our favorite moments from the original series and analyze the ladies’ every move in the reboot — not to mention get the wheels turning for some epic birthday and just-because gifts for Sex and the City fans and obsessives.
You may never be the woman or man with the perfect hair who can wear white and not spill on it, but you can very well be the person who rocks an epic nameplate necklace, eats Magnolia cupcakes, and rocks a Charlotte-worthy headband like nobody’s business. We rounded up a list of more than 20 such offerings for the Sex and the City and And Just Like That… superfans in your sphere, and couldn't help but wonder if we should get ourselves one of each, too!

1) ‘Carrie’ Name Necklace
Abbott Lyon

$96.00
You didn’t think you’d make it through this list without a tribute to Carrie’s signature necklace, did you? Yeah, no. Inspired by the classic, original Sex and the City “Carrie” nameplate necklace, you can create your own take on this signature piece in gold, silver, or rose gold, with up 12 characters.
We must admit, we kinda want to buy one with “Carrie” on it for fandom’s sake.
