So it's 18 years today since the first episode of SATC aired. As a huge fan I thought I'd put together a post dedicated to Carrie Bradshaw's best quotes that give us essential life lessons.

1. "Don't forget to fall in love with yourself first."

2. "I like my money where I can see it, hanging in your closet."

3. "They say nothing lasts forever, dreams change, trends come and go, but friendship never goes out of style."

4. "Some people refuse to settle for anything less than butterflies."

5. "Life gives you lots of chances to screw up, which means you have just as many chances to get it right."
