In exactly one month, May 28, 2010, Sex and the City 2 will pick-up where the original left off. Of courses there will be some surprises (certain flash-backs, wedding(s – yes perhaps more than one) and does someone 'cheat'? What remains consistent; fashion, friendships and the love of a good cocktail.

So if you are planning your own Sex and the City themed bridal shower (because you’ve FOUND your Mr./Ms. Big) these are amazingly easy to make and … yes, I’ve tested them all and truly am a Park Avenue Princess.

Patricia Field not only helped with the fashions, she created the look for the limited-edition SKYY Vodka Sex and the City 2 bottle.

SKYY Vodka has a sweepstakes in the works for special locations throughout the globe. Winners receive tickets to the SATC2 premieres, advance screenings or other prizes. Fans in the U.S. will also have a chance to win a New York City shopping spree with Patricia Field. Sign up in the "membership" section of www.skyy.com or become a fan at Facebook.com/skyyvodka.

Bob Kunze-Concewitz, CEO of Gruppo Campari the parent company for SKYY said, "Sex and the City helped to define sophisticated cocktail culture around the world, and that tradition will continue as SKYY teams with Warner Bros. to give fans another reason to celebrate friendship, fashion and 'cocktail couture' with Sex and the City 2."

So which cocktail are you? Don't worry if you can't choose just one.

A classic cocktail with a sweet and colorful twist, the Glamour Gal is a girl’s best friend. Always uniquely dressed for the occasion and decked out from head to toe, she makes an entrance like only a true New York fashion maven can.
