Carries name necklace is BACK for SATC return: 6 best personalised name necklaces to get the look

Carrie Bradshaw’s name necklace on Sex and The City was practically a character in its own right along with Samantha, Charlotte and Miranda, and with the SATC reboot Just Like That in its second season soon (with John Corbett, aka Aidan and Kim Cattrall aka Sam joining), there's still time to earn your fan rights by buying your own personalised name necklace. Sarah Jessica Parker would be proud. 

It even makes a cameo in the third episode of And Just Like That season 2, when a would-be thief tries to take it from Carrie while she's enjoying a night out with Seema at a pop-up jewellery event of her coolgirl neighbour, Lisette. 

And Sarah Jessica Parker spoke to her fans on Instagram, dedicating a post to her namesake necklace. See, even she's not over the affordable accessory!

Marking the show's incredible 25 years, she captioned her post: "It’s our silver anniversary but the memories will always be gold. X, SJ."

Carrie’s necklace was a simple gold plated pendant, rumoured to have cost around $100, which she expertly paired with luxe jewels and designer clothing, but we’ve found some even more affordable versions of the iconic pendant.

How we chose the best nameplate necklaces

As a self-confessed Sex And The City superfan, I'm pretty well versed to find the best nameplate necklaces - if there's a good one, I'll have found it! Here's what else I considered:

  • Personalisation: You might want one that says Carrie, but most of us want one we can personalise! All of the necklaces I've listed have personalisation options, including not just the name, but extra options too from the metal colour to the font.
  • Metal colour: I've included gold, silver and rose gold options.
  • Price: Carrie considered her nameplate necklace 'priceless', but I've found options from both the high street, independent boutiques and sellers plus designer too.

Even though Carrie swapped her nameplate necklace for a New York state necklace in And Just Like That season 1, it clearly didn't make the same impact - hence the nameplate necklaces return for season 2. We're still obsessed with the original SATC must-have - and we've found some incredible lookalikes on the high street for your own Carrie moment.
