The real life (and non-preggers) Kristin is feminine but more quirky around the edges, with interesting combos of design and material.<\/p>","url":"2008/5/29/Kristin-Davis-0508-1.jpg","width":320,"height":540,"alt":"Kristin Davis 05.08 1"},{"captionHeading":"Kristin Davis Vs Charlotte York","caption":"
Though she's more reserved than her NY pals, Charlotte will never shy away from a risk.

Kristin, on the other hand, prefers a more grown-up image.
How else do you get away with flashing some flesh, after all?<\/p>","url":"2008/5/28/Kristin-Davis-0503.jpg","width":320,"height":540,"alt":"Kristin Davis 05.03"},{"captionHeading":"Kristin Davis Vs Charlotte York","caption":"
It's fair to say Charlotte's defo a fan of floaty, floral motifs.<\/p>","url":"2008/5/27/Kristin-Davis-as-Charlotte-York-0603-1.jpg","width":320,"height":540,"alt":"Kristin Davis as Charlotte York 06.03"},{"captionHeading":"Kristin Davis Vs Charlotte York","caption":"
On occasion this spills over to Kristin too, though she tends to work it with a more sophisticated and fitted approach.<\/p>","url":"2008/5/28/Kristin-Davis-0403.jpg","width":320,"height":540,"alt":"Kristin Davis 04.03"},{"captionHeading":"Kristin Davis Vs Charlotte York","caption":"

Wowsers.
Charlotte's alter ego is clearly not as bothered by minor details, as she throws caution to the wind and flaunts a frock that would have even Samantha's eyebrows raised a degree or two.<\/p>","url":"2008/5/28/Kristin-Davis-0603.jpg","width":320,"height":540,"alt":"Kristin Davis 06.03"},{"captionHeading":"Kristin Davis Vs Charlotte York","caption":"

Kristin plays around with her ingredients a bit more, though the end result isn't always inspired.

Back to reality and Kristin also embraces a summery theme, in a worringly frumpy manner.

Though Kristin's always willing to give it a shot.
This dress would be a lot nicer were it not for the strange material - and the see-through nips would have Charlotte blushing to the moon and back.<\/p>","url":"2008/5/29/Kristin-Davis-0501.jpg","width":320,"height":540,"alt":"Kristin Davis 05.01"},{"captionHeading":"Kristin Davis Vs Charlotte York","caption":"
