So, I've not posted for, like a week. It's been busy; three features, a birthday and travelling between two cities, on the go all at the same time. Among all that, last night I went to the press preview screening of Sex And The City 2 at the very nice Charlotte St Hotel in Soho. I assumed, wrongly, that while the rest of the movie is drivel, and the clothes awful, that there might have been some redemption in this Carrie-and-Big-Fifth-Avenue-apartment that was also talked up in the movie's hype.
Fifth avenue, blah. Too much big printed stuff, slightly gaudy, not much to say. Ditto the Abu Dhabi place they stayed in. If you do want to see the SATC stuff, head to Elle Decor. But if you want to get a real feel for New York style that isn't ditzy or faddy or designer simply for the sake of it, let me leave you with this: the Crosby Street Hotel, part of the very same Firmdale group that includes the Charlotte St hotel I went to. With a writing-research trip to NYC on the cards (watch this space), I'd love to experience some of this real New York style. Simple, clean, classic and crisp. Learn a thing or two from that, Carrie.
Big photo shoot for The Times tomorrow - the basis of a very tantalizing piece. So I'll be back soon - happy bank holidays.
