Best Documentaries for the Boudoir
I do keep a television in my boudoir, but I really don’t watch a lot of it. I cancelled my cable a while back, and just purchase the few shows that I like to watch. When I actually have time to commit to a couple of hours, and my son is asleep, I will generally choose an old movie (1940’s-1960’s), or a good documentary. I usually like to keep it light, and don’t really like to watch sad documentaries (or movies for that matter), so these aren’t super “deep,” but they take me to a happy and fascinating world. Here are some of my favorite documentaries that I highly recommend:…
The Carrie Diaries
Ladies…are you ready? Ready for what, you ask? Tonight is the premiere of the new show The Carrie Diaries. It is the prequel to Sex and the CIty and is based on Candace Bushnell’s book, The Carrie Diaries, which was released in 2010. The show appears to revolve around Carrie Bradshaw, pre-NYC and pre-Miranda, Charlotte and Samantha. Carrie’s father then offers her the opportunity of an internship in New Your City…and that is when the fun begins. The first episode premieres tonight at 8/7c. on the CW (check your local listings). Here is a trailer for your viewing pleasure. After you watch tonight, please visit this post and leave a comment…

Christmas Recap
I hope you are enjoying the Holidays! I sure am. Our first gift (or blessing, rather) actually came before Christmas. My Step-Father had his life saved during a massive heart attack. He is doing well now, and that is the best gift of all, for which I am very thankful. I have to say, I am also quite pleased with those gifts found under the tree, too. Here are some of the fabulous gifts that I received this year. I’d love to hear what you received…feel free to leave a comment! 1. Gucci Guilty 2. Tiffany & Co. Envelope (aka Business Card Holder) 3. Coach Julia Patent Card Case and…
Give-Away: The Carrie Diaries
As a farewell to Sex and the City week on MyLittleBoudoir.com, I thought it would be fun to do a give-away. If you remember back in my post titled 135 Days, I pre-ordered some copies of The Carrie Diaries. Naturally, I kept one for myself. I also gave one to my best friend as a gift when we went to see Sex and the City 2 on Friday. And the third copy is for a lucky My Little Boudoir reader. If you haven’t heard about The Carrie Diaries yet, in short it is the prequel to Sex and the City. It is written by Candace Bushnell, who was the same…
Sunday’s Best: Hello Lover…of All Things Beautiful
Each sunday I try to showcase a blog or blogpost that I enjoy. This morning while searching online for where to find Carrie and Big’s headboard from SATC2, I stumbled upon a lovely new blog called Hello Lover…of All Things Beautiful. I was planning a nice post for all of you about Carrie and Big’s new apartment in SATC2. However, after finding the posts on Hello Lover…of All Things Beautiful, I am not even going to attempt it, because she has done an outstanding job. She even tells you where you can find the design looks for your own home! So, with that being said, I suggest you head on…
Thinking Outside the Boudoir: Sex and the City
As you may have noticed the theme on My Little Boudoir this past week has been Sex and the City, so why not continue with that theme for this month’s Thinking Outside the Boudoir series post. For those of you just recently visiting My Little Boudoir, Thinking Outside the Boudoir, is a series where I post each month a home from the movies that I admire. While some may not be practical for everyday life, or represent my overall ideal decor, I would love to spend some time in them, even just for a night. In some it is the decor that I fancy. In others it’s the architecture or…
Baking…in Charlotte York Goldenblatt Style
I’m sure during the next couple of months, the fashion magazines, tabloids and blogs will all be buzzing about where to find the fashions of SATC2. I’m not sure that this exactly qualifies as “fashion”, but let’s get a head start, shall we? If you’re anything like Charlotte York, you probably enjoy baking (especially with your little girl) and there is no better way to look the part than to wear this delightful cupcake apron by Jessie Steele. After all, every lady must leave the boudoir and spend time in the kitchen occasionally, so why not look fashionable while you’re at it? This darling vintage inspired apron, like the one…
Mademoiselle Monday: Mlle Parker
“I just don’t know. It’s like I can’t imagine anyone else playing Dorothy Gale — just Judy Garland (Wizard of Oz)” – Sarah Jessica Parker (when asked if someone else would be cast to play Carrie Bradshaw if a prequel were created after Candace Bushnell’s new book The Carrie Diaries) “Maybe our mistakes are what make our fate.” – Sarah Jessica Parker 0
Sunday’s Best: Sex and the City 2
Yes, I know, I know…it is Monday. Please forgive me for not posting “Sunday’s Best” on Sunday. I had a very busy day yesterday. I took my great-great-Aunt out for lunch and spent the afternoon with my best friend at her beautiful new home. Now, on to the exciting stuff… In honor of the big event that is coming this Thursday (that is giving women across the globe the feeling that a child gets on Christmas Eve night), I would like to share a must-see website with you. It is the blog for all things Sex and the City, particularly relating to the upcoming movie, Sex and the City 2.…
