1 of 31That's right; Carrie may have spent her time writing about sex, relationships and the pursuit of The One, but she was, first and foremost, a big self-love advocate."The most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself."We couldn't have put it better ourselves, Carrie!

2 of 31Carrie was a hopeless romantic, sure, but she was also fiercely independent and happy in her own skin."Maybe some women aren't meant to be tamed. Maybe they need to run free until they find someone just as wild to run with."PREACH ON, CARRIE BRADSHAW!!!
p>
3 of 31Carrie was pretty smart when it came to adapting and evolving to the world around her, teaching us that our past does not dictate who we are - unless we let it:"Maybe the past is like an anchor holding us back. Maybe, you have to let go of who you were to become who you will be."
p>
4 of 31Sure, Carrie was old-fashioned when it came to love - but she was also a fierce feminist."Being single used to mean that nobody wanted you. Now it means you’re pretty sexy and you’re taking your time deciding how you want your life to be and who you want to spend it with."Yes. So much yes!

5 of 31"They say nothing lasts forever; dreams change, trends come and go, but friendships never go out of style."It's just oh-so-true, isn't it?
p>
6 of 31Carrie's closet may be unattainable for most of us, but it was a pretty gorgeous dream. And we love that Carrie, bless her, worked hard to treat herself:"I like my money where I can see it – hanging in my closet."Don't we all?

7 of 31"I will never be the woman with the perfect hair, who can wear white and not spill on it."Embrace your imperfections, ladies - it's what makes us who we are!
p>
8 of 31Sure, we can date and we can have fun - but we should save our heart for the person who truly deserves it most:"Somewhere out there is another little freak who will love us and understand us and kiss our three heads and make it all better."

9 of 31"You and I are so over, we need a new word for it."We're writing that one down to whip out the next time some guy or gal screws us over!

10 of 31Carrie once said, "You can't change a man, and you definitely can't change a man like Big."You also can't rush a man. Big had to figure out on his own that Carrie was the one, but he sure didn't do it quickly! When a man isn't ready to settle down, there really isn't anything you can do to change that or speed him along.Just keep in mind that it's not about you. It's on him.

11 of 31"Life gives you lots of chances to screw up which means you have just as many chances to get it right."
"Life gives you lots of chances to screw up which means you have just as many chances to get it right
12 of 31In the words of Carrie, "He's not my boyfriend. He's just somebody I'm trying on." Sometimes a girl just needs to have a little fun
In the words of Carrie, "He's not my boyfriend. He's just somebody I'm trying on
13 of 31… and what all of us were thinking too:"When men attempt bold gestures, generally it's considered romantic. When women do it, it's often considered desperate or psycho."True that!

14 of 31“Maybe men and women aren’t from different planets as pop culture would have us believe. Maybe we live a lot closer to each other. Perhaps, dare I even say it, in the same zip code.”Mmhmm, we can get on board with that.

15 of 31"I’m looking for love. Real love. Ridiculous, inconvenient, consuming, can’t-live-without-each-other love."Standards in fashion, standards in the workplace, standards in our friendship groups and standards in dating - us ladies should never settle for second-best. And we should never be afraid to ask for what we really want.

16 of 31"Think about it. If you are single, after graduation there isn’t one occasion where people celebrate you… Hallmark doesn’t make a “congratulations, you didn’t marry the wrong guy” card. And where’s the flatware for going on vacation alone?"Carrie threw a party to celebrate herself, registered for a brand-new pair of shoes and was, generally, amazing. We need to be more like her.

17 of 31“I admit it’s tempting to wish for the perfect boss, or the perfect parent or the perfect outfit, but maybe the best any of us can do is not quit, play the hand we’ve been given and accessorize the outfit we’ve got.”Amen sister!

18 of 31"Some people are settling down, some people are settling, and some people refuse to settle for anything less than butterflies."Now THAT is good life advice we all need to follow.

19 of 31"When you're young, your whole life is about the pursuit of fun. They you grow up and learn to be cautious. You could break a bone or a heart. You look before you leap, and sometimes you don't leap at all because there's not always someone there to catch you."And in life there's no safety net. When did it stop being fun and start being scary."If someone as fearless as Carrie Bradshaw can be afraid sometimes, it makes us feel better about having doubts and worries and stress outs every now and then.

20 of 31"It’s really hard to walk in a single woman’s shoes — that’s why you sometimes need really special shoes!"Like, seriously. We really wanted each and every single heel, flat, loafer and pump in her closet.
