{SBW Real Bride Blogger: Stephanie} SJP in NYC – With Andy C

If you asked me what duo of besties I would be most ecstatic about spotting on the street – I might say Sarah Jessica Parker and Andy Cohen.  Last week (after a delish din with my gals in the west village) – SPOTTED: SJP in NYC dining with Bravo’s One and Only Andy.  Wow, I know.

So let me set up the sitch.  Myself, and nine of my camp girlies went out to dinner to celebrate a plethora of events – Naomi’s preggers, Brett is heading back to ATL for her LAST year of law school, Mala just returned from a summer in LA, and (if you’re just tuning in) I just got engaged.    After some fare at Aria – and a few too many Moscow Mules annnd bottles of Red Wine – we were ready to roll.

We strolled down the street and got to the corner where I noticed a bunch of my girls FREAKING out (we are actually like a bunch of 15 year old girls when we get together – no joke)  Then they told me.  We just walked past the one, the only Carrie Bradshaw, I mean – Sarah Jessica Parker.  She was sitting with Andy Cohen.  She was adorable.  Like SO adorable.  I asked my ladies if I could go over and say hi to which they all blurted out NOOOOO!!  F that – I was going to talk to SJP.

I marched my lil tush over to their table.  And gushed “I’m really sorry to be one of those annoying girls but I haveeee to tell you I love you so much.  We were both similarly clad in little white dresses of sorts - twins if you will.  My partner in crime Annie snapped a paparazzi style photo – thanks girl.

Little background – I love SJP.  I love her demeanor, her style, and just everything about her.  SATC was my bible growing up, and Carrie Bradshaw’s closet was what I one day aspire to have  (I have a sick obsession with shoes) {*SBW note-No seriously, she does.  Its “mildly’ out of control.  I have high standards at this point for what her wedding day footwear is going to be!}.  So it was kind of kismet that one day – right after I got a black diamond from my fiancé – I would meet her.

Ok back to the story – I probably too aggressively forced my hand in her face to show her that I had a black diamond too!  She told me it was a beautiful ring, and asked if I was engaged – to which I happily responded “oh yeahhhhh I am.”  She chuckled – you heard it here first – I made SJP laugh and am damn proud of it.  As it was about 100 degrees outside my hair was haphazardly thrown up in a pony of sorts and Andy (I think we’re on a first name basis now) said in the sweetest way “Love your sidepony!!” I died.  I then let them “Carrie” on and went back to my group of friends who were in total shock as to what had just happened.

Later that night I had to tune into Andy’s “Watch What Happens Live” to see if he mentioned the fab girl he had just met on the street - sadly he did not.  But I’ll get over it – one day.  It kind of pays off I guess to have no shame (but it does get me into trouble from time to time…stay tuned and you’ll see what I’m talking about) What a great night – won’t forget that one!
