Sex and the City is the show that keeps on giving. Even though the HBO series has been off the air for over ten years, fans are still finding new ways to pay tribute to their favorite franchise—and New York City resident Dan Clay is one of them.
It all began this past Halloween when Clay decided to pay homage to one his favorite fictional New Yorkers, Carrie Bradshaw, by donning her iconic pink tutu from the show's opening credits. After outfitting himself in the perfect blonde wig and the right pair of gold heels he posted a photo on Instagram and inadvertently launched a new sensation, Carrie Dragshaw. "I have wanted to be Carrie Bradshaw for Halloween ever since college, when I had HBO in my frat room and girls would come over and watch Sex and the City on Sundays," he wrote. "I would pretend that I hated it because I didn't want to give myself away. Well, the secret's out, and this is the happiest day of my life."
Fans of the show immediately fell in love, showering Clay with likes and praise in the comments. Sarah Jessica Parker even took notice of the half satirical/half sartorial takes on her character. "Words cannot convey. A triumph," the actress commented on one of his photos.
Since his initial debut Clay has recreated many more of Carrie's more notable looks, including her Hamptons beach party outfit and her Dior newspaper print dress, at the request of his fans. But it's not just the outfits that are on point. This Sex and the City devotee accompanies each of his posts with pitch-perfect monologues about life in the city and romance that seem like they could have been typed directly from Bradshaw's '90s PowerBook. (Excerpt: "Maybe love is like a mobile phone. When you have a good connection, you’ve just got to keep talking and hope for the best.")
