10 Signs You're Not Carrie Bradshaw

As my loyal readers (aka my mother and myself) know, I have a history of posting on ultimate girl heroes and I believe that every white girl needs an ultimate girl hero to aspire to. For many young white girls, that ultimate girl hero is Carrie Bradshaw. She's fabulous, a fashionista and no matter how annoying her generalizations and metaphors may be, she is a great writer. She gets $4 a word from Vogue! Hello! So I have dedicated this blog post to every girl out there who still needs to discover which Sex and the City character she is.

P.S. I'm equal parts Charlotte and Carrie.
