*This is a sponsored guest post. Carrie Bradshaw is the iconic, fictional journalist from the hit HBO show and subsequent movie franchise, Sex and the City.

Although Will Truman and Grace Adler may have been considered the main characters, I probably enjoyed watching Karen Walker and Jack McFarland just as much, if not more. So when it was announced that they were bringing the show back, I was ecstatic! Since it’s latest premier back at the end of September of this year, I haven’t missed an episode. My love for these characters is why I’ve invited Will, Grace, Jack and Karen to my house for a little {imaginary} dinner party. If you haven’t […]
