The idea of a Sex and the City and TOWIE crossover is something we never knew we needed but would one hundred per cent adore and lets be honest, deserve. Although having said that, as much as we love the TOWIE babes we cant quite imagine them meeting the SATC girlies when it comes to the style stakes.

But the babes of Essex are just like the rest of us and have taken some style inspo from THE fashion queen of New York with their latest accessory obsession; name necklaces.
