And Just Like That brings back the iconic Carrie nameplate necklace – here’s where to shop your own

In Sex and the City, the Carrie necklace was almost as well-known as a pair of Manolo Blahnik heels, so we’re eager to see one of our own now that it’s back on screens.

Fashion and relationships were equally important in the Sex and the City universe, particularly for Carrie Bradshaw, the main character. SATC provided some significant fashion moments, from her show-stopping Vivienne Westwood wedding dress in the movies to her wildly impractical pair of Manolo Blahnik or Jimmy Choo heels.

Her Carrie necklace, however, became just as well-known and worn on repeat by Sarah Jessica Parker throughout the entire series and into the upcoming And Just Like That spinoffs. At the conclusion of the SATC TV series, she found herself (and Big) thanks to the nameplate necklace, which was so significant.

Harriet Cowan, the star of Clarkson’s Farm, has this fleece gilet in several colors.

Never one to let a pivotal fashion moment go away. You’ll undoubtedly want a nameplate necklace of your own, so we narrowed down some of the best options for you to buy if you’re anything like us and have coveted most of Carrie’s wardrobe since the show first aired.

Rugby concussion lawsuit rises to 1,100 former players

The law firm bringing the lawsuit claims that more than 520 additional former rugby players have signed on to file a concussion lawsuit against the sport’s authorities.

According to Rylands Garth, there are currently 319 former rugby league players, compared to 784 who were from rugby union.

Former England players Gavin Henson, Colin Charvis, Ryan Jones, England and the British and Lions scrum-half Harry Ellis are among the players who are suing World Rugby, the Rugby Football Union, and the Welsh Rugby Union for damages.

Former British and Irish Lions duo Lee Byrne and Phil Greening were confirmed to be parties to the concussion lawsuit in November.

The former players assert that the governing bodies lacked responsibility for taking appropriate steps to protect them from serious brain injuries.

The British Amateur Rugby League Association (BARLA) and the Rugby Football League (RFL) are both facing similar legal proceedings.

According to medical examinations conducted for the company, two-thirds of the plaintiffs’ lawsuit against rugby league authorities displayed signs of chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE).

Roy Heaney, who played for Wigan and Salford in the 1980s and was diagnosed with early-onset dementia and probable CTE, is one of the claimants in the rugby league case.

He claimed that his rugby league career was insufficient because he frequently had concussions and that the care he received while training and playing games was insufficient.

Before the case might go to trial in the following year, new players had one more chance to join the legal proceedings on Friday, May 30.

One of the clubs he played for said that a former rugby league player who died and has led to a murder investigation was “a well-known face throughout the community game.”

According to Greater Manchester Police (GMP), the body of 50-year-old Mick Martindale was discovered at a property in Eldon Street, Oldham, on Saturday at around 19:50 BST.

According to GMP, Mr. Martindale’s cause of death has not yet been determined.

Specialist officers are assisting his family, according to a force spokesperson.

The Roughyeds claimed that their former player, who also coached at Oldham St. Annes, was well-known.

When the club underwent a change, Oldham Rugby League Heritage Trust claimed that Mr. Martindale was a member of the Roughyeds squad.

“Larger than life,”

The trust claimed that Mr. Martindale made his professional debut at Halifax Panthers as a teenager before moving to Oldham in time for their second competitive game of the 1998 campaign against Widnes Vikings. He then spent some time at Wakefield.

Before moving to Rochdale, Mr. Martindale scored seven tries in 26 games for Oldham that year, including in the Trans-Pennine Cup final against Batley.

He later won the National Cup for Oldham St Annes, and he has remained well-known and well-known in the amateur game, the trust continued.
