Carrie Bradshaw's Work-From-Home Outfits Are My Forever Inspiration

I love how Carrie casually layers a long tunic-style tee over a pleated skater skirt and finishes the combo with pumps, just for an easy walk through the closet. Consider this comfort taken to a new, elevated level.

Carrie rolls up the sleeves on a crisp white blouse and ties back her hair to reveal a pair of stud earrings. It's in moments like these when she looks most natural sitting at her computer. You can tell she puts thought into even the most simple of basics.

Carrie takes influence from the '80s in this graphic muscle tee and a pair of red tartan pants. Her hair in a messy bun and a square watch on her wrist just make this look so tough and cool. I'd feel prepared to dive into any work task in something trend-driven like this.

I love the type of looks Carrie throws on for a quick outing with Miranda during the day. You can tell she takes her cropped sweats and silk negligee from the couch straight out the door with just the addition of a chambray denim blazer and a hobo bag. What an easy off-duty combination — and to think it could be ready for the street in an instant.

I love Carrie's moment in acid-wash, baggy denim and a cutout tank for work around the house. There's something so beautiful about a cute top and jeans, but leave it to Carrie to mix and match two items that have even more unexpected details and pull them off like a pro.

Carrie's signature gold nameplate necklace tends to make an appearance in the scenes you hear her voice or get a sense of what she's writing. It's a constant reminder of her personality, and she needs little else to complete an outfit, in that case. A nameplate necklace is something we could all stand to put on when we're trying to pour our heart and soul into our work, no?

Carrie's work breaks are always chic. I love the idea of wearing a lightweight, loose-fit linen dress around the house while getting the job done. All she has to do is slip on some pretty pink wooden flatforms and step outside.

Though Carrie emerges on New Year's Eve for a trip to Miranda's in this scene, the outfit reminds me of a look she'd normally wear around the house. Carrie takes a pair of floral PJ pants and caps on some booties and a furry coat, pulling off the boudoir trend she is famous for. As the ever-popular decadent pajama trend proves, this straight-out-of-the-bedroom style is becoming the norm, even in public.
