Get SATC style without the gold card

Did you ever wonder how Carrie sported a new pair of Manolos ever week on her journalist salary? Well, you're not alone. How does the average girl look fab on a not-quite-fab paycheck?

Just ask the assistant. Oscar winner Jennifer Hudson plays Louise, a fashion-forward girl who plays pawn to Sarah Jessica Parker's Carrie.

How does she make do in the big city? Louise's character sports a membership to the online company Bag Borrow or Steal, where you can rent or buy designer handbags and jewelry at discount prices. We love the reuse philosophy behind the company.

Jennifer Hudson, tells NY Daily News about why she loves the use of the site in the film: "It's good for viewers, because the film is lifelike in that way...[it] shows that the average working person can still look fabulous, too." Now that is one SATC character we can relate to.
