While I'm absolutely in love with Carrie's new apartment, there are many other aspects of the Sex and the City movie set that I'm equally in love with. One of these would have to be the wicker egg chair from the fab four's Mexico vacation.
I think that this chair is a brilliant casting choice; its design perfectly mirrors Carrie's emotional state in this scene in the movie, and provides welcome shelter to her, even as Samantha, Miranda, and Charlotte soak in the sun. In my interview with production designer Jeremy Conway, he told me that the wicker egg chair was from an outdoor furniture store in Los Angeles, where the Mexico vacation scenes were shot. However, if you're coveting this chair and aren't in LA, I have another source for you, which I'll tell you about when you read more.
While not an exact match for Carrie's more cocoon-like chair, the Palmetto All-Weather Wicker Chair ($1,299), which I asked your opinion about just last month. Do you like Carrie's chair better than the Palmetto? Tell me in the comments.

If I were going to have to opt for either it would be the Palmetto version. The original egg chair seems way too confining and I think it might tend to get a bit humid in there.
1I agree, haze. The palmetto version seems much more open!
2Ditto that comment.
3Ditto!
4Most def the Palmetto.
5I like Carrie's chair better. Seems like a nice cocoon!
6i looooove it
7i want it
I actually really like the Palmetto All-Weather Wicker Chair
8I actually really like the Palmetto All-Weather Wicker Chair
9I love it and want one SOOOOO bad.
10That chair made me talk out loud in a movie! Loooove it! Cozy little outdoor cacoon.
11Depends on whats on the inside of carrie's chair. I would certainly like that privacy but the other one is cuter.
12Def the Palmetto.
13I like Carrie's chair better. In other (non-casa) news I adore her hat in this scene.
14
it.
15The pottery barn link does not work.
16I saw the movie today and commented to my friend that I love that chair. It's tough to choose between the two, but I do like Carrie's better.
17i like the non-egg one best. i would like to be able to sit cross-legged in it and it doesn't seem like you could in the first one.
18I love it!
19I love both... but I do like the vents....
20Palmetto
21Yup, the Palmetto one is better.
22Great Movie. Love that chair. Check out Neoterichome.com, they have it!!!! They have the greatest style and I've seen their quality, it's amazing. It's called the Igloo Outdoor Chaise. It's a little pricy at $4,995, but let's face it, would Carrie be sitting in anything less fabulous? They also have a bigger one and so many more cool designs like the Suki, the Spartan, the bora bora daybed and such.
23The Caribbean has great vacations resort, I´ve traveled to a few of them like charlisangels adult sex vacations resort. And hope visit many more and the future.
24I love the chair that Carrie was sitting in better because of the size. I am looking hard to find one like it if not bigger. If anyone has any information please let me know
