Last night’s Toast on the Terrace party was held at the uber chic Terrace at the Conrad Hotel. And although the backdrop of the city was absolutely gorgeous, the fashions at the event were certainly giving the skyline a run for it’s money. Everyone was dressed to impress and, of course, sporting their sky high heels!
Team PLRG, plus one lucky reader and three of her friends, got to sip champagne and cosmos, snack on mini cheeseburgers and Eli’s Cheesecake while we were entertained with a fashion show inspired by looks from the movie (put on by the Shop at Northbridge).
After that, we headed over the theater to see the pre-screening of Sex and the City 2! Read on to see our tips for watching and teases from the film, but first, check out this piece from ABC 7 news. They interviewed me and Lindsey aka “Fans.”
- For a movie that’s mostly about fashion and sex, it’s long- 146 minutes, or two and a half hours for those of you that could use another cup of coffee. So, while the martini party before the movie seem like a good idea, if you and you gals don’t snag an end seat, we promise you’ll have to pee at least once, if not twice. Goodie bags in the aisle make it all that more risky.
- Ok, so it’s long, but it’s not like dry British drama long. We could have watched another hour of the amazing fashions and girl talk! So, for anyone who was wondering how Sex and the City would pan out minus the city (most of the movie takes place in Abu Dhabi), you won’t be disappointed.
- Make sure you get there on time, because the opening scene of the movie is hilarious. We get quick flashbacks of the girls as they looked when they all met in NYC in the 80’s. Miranda in her skirt-suit with white commuter tennis shoes and tube socks is classic!
- As you probably saw from the previews, the movie starts out with the wedding of Stanford and Anthony, which might be the most fabulous wedding we’ve ever seen- complete with an appearance by Liza Minnelli. Her performance will have you laughing out loud!
- Speaking of weddings, Carrie has just wrapped up her new book and this time it’s not about being a single girl, it’s about marriage (she dedicates the book to all the “former single girls”). The movie does focus alot on marriage this time around and how the women are dealing with making their relationships work amidst the rest of life that tends to get in the way. We think single or hitched, in true SATC style, every woman will be able to relate to this movie.
