Why We Can't Have A Modern Carrie Bradshaw | Sex and the City

[quote]Rewatching Sex and the City, we can’t help but wonder… is it even possible to live like Carrie Bradshaw nowadays?

Carrie Bradshaw, Samantha Jones, Miranda Hobbes and Charlotte York were always aspirational in their own ways, but Carrie always felt particularly relatable to those of us still struggling to figure out our lives. So many women in our 20s and 30s still see themselves in Carrie’s creative dreams, her financial chaos, her confusing romantic patterns, and her complicated friendships. But how would those struggles look now in a world of rising rent, creator-economy jobs, burnout, dating apps and disappearing third spaces?
