We first fell in love with the ladies of Sex and the City because of their love affair with New York City and high-end fashion.  Their move to the big screen has only intensified that love; they continue their love affair with Louboutin, YSL, Dior, Halston and Chanel in Sex and the City 2.  We’ve only [...]
