Over the course of six seasons and two films, we've been through it all with the girls - from Carrie's tumultuous love affair with Big and Charlotte's infertility struggles, to Miranda's unexpected pregnancy. 

And there are plenty more ups and downs to come. But this time, the crew will meet the funny and surprising moments with the wisdom of being that little bit older, and a whole lot wiser. 

In a seriously stylish trailer, Miranda and Charlotte are seen back together looking as fabulous as ever on the streets of Manhattan.

Similar to the original series, Carrie narrates, telling viewers: 'They say some things never change. But the truth is, life is full of surprises.' 

'And as your story unfolds, the city reinvents itself. And just like that... a new chapter begins.' 

The hit franchise first aired in 1998 and not only made a huge mark on the narrative surrounding sexuality - but on our wardrobes, too! 

From Carrie's Manolo Blahniks (who can forget the blue satin jewel buckle pumps  Big proposed with?) to Charlotte's Prada lipstick print skirt, it's no surprise generations continue to be inspired by the show's fashion trends almost two decades on.

And much to our relief, the trailer and first-look photographs show that style very much remains a central theme throughout the 10-episode spin-off. 

So fashion fans, prepare to get sent into a frenzy all over again! 

In the promo shot, Carrie is seen putting her best foot forward in towering patent platform heels, paired with a very chic, high waisted black-and-white gingham skirt. 

So far... so Carrie Bradshaw! 

Oh, and did we forget to mention this new chapter in the lives of Carrie, Miranda and Charlotte is written by executive producer Michael Patrick King, who also wrote and directed the two Sex And The City films? 

So it's sure to be a hit! So what's in store for our favourite BFFs?

CARRIE BRADSHAW   

Where we left her: It may have been 17 years since the groundbreaking series aired its last episode, but we're still drying our eyes from the unforgettable happy ending which saw commitment-phobe Big go to Paris and finally claim his girl.

Despite not always being his biggest fan, Carrie's pals urged Big to jet off to The City of Light to rescue their lonely friend, who had followed her Russian boyfriend Aleksandr Petrovsky to the French capital.

For Carrie, Paris didn't live up to her expectations, with the artist spending all of his time on his new exhibit, rather than with her.

But her knight in shining armour soon came in the form of her hunky Manhattan businessman, Big, who FINALLY declared she was 'the one.' 

The happy couple later tied the knot at New York City Hall. 

But fast-forward to the second movie - set two years later - Carrie was left questioning their marriage.

With Big preferring to spend the evening at home watching TV, she found herself feeling far from the party girl she once was.  

So has their relationship stood the test of time? You'll have to wait and see!

What's next for Carrie?  A quick clip in the latest trailer shows Carrie and Big sharing a romantic embrace in their very lavish kitchen and rustling up dinner together. 

But while any gossip about their relationship has remained very tight-lipped, one thing's for sure - Carrie's walk-in-wardrobe will be bustling with more luxury labels than ever before.  

From strutting around in two-toned Chanel booties to flaunting her figure in that iconic pink tutu or super sexy 'newspaper' patterned dress, Carrie is famous for her  unforgettable array of fun and flirty outfits. 

So there's no doubt she'll be returning to the box in true Bradshaw style!

So has Carrie's relationship with Mr Big stood the test of time? You'll have to wait and see!

CHARLOTTE YORK GOLDENBLATT

Where we left her: After converting to Judaism and marrying Harry Goldenblatt (Evan Handler), Charlotte's dreams of becoming a mother were dashed when she suffered a heartbreaking miscarriage.   

For much of the series, Harry and his wife were seen struggling to conceive, before deciding to begin a highly emotional adoption journey. 

The final episode ended with the pair being approved to adopt a baby girl from China who they named Lily. 

By the time Sex and the City 2 arrived, Charlotte was a proud mother-of-two after she and Harry expanded their brood with a daughter named Rose.

In her terrible twos, Rose proved to be quite the handful. But that wasn't Charlotte's only worry...

She grew increasingly concerned that her husband had eyes for the family's new Irish nanny, Erin (Alice Eve), who she amusingly referred to as 'Erin Go Braless' (for obvious reasons!) 

Thankfully, there was nothing to worry about after she discovered Erin was gay. 

What's next for Charlotte? And Just Like That... will focus on the iconic trio, Charlotte, Carrie and Miranda. 

However, it's likely the children - Lily and Rose plus Miranda's son Brady - all of whom have now been recast as teenagers, will play key characters as they make up a new generation of Sex and the City characters.  

After suffering many struggles - from finding a man to going through divorce - fingers crossed Charlotte will finally get the happy ending she deserves. 

And let's not forget Elizabeth Taylor - Charlotte's Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. Will she be making her stylish return in Burberry accessories? Let's hope so! 

MIRANDA HOBBES 

Where we left her: In the first Sex and the City movie, the fiery lawyer who was forever cynical about relationships and men was living with husband Steve (David Eigenberg) and their son, Brady, then five, in Brooklyn. 

Sadly, viewers learned that Steve's mother Mary's health had deteriorated following a stroke, and that she had moved into a home. 

During a coffee date with the girls, Miranda blurted out that she and Steve hadn't been intimately involved in six months, and to make matters even worse, he'd slept with another woman.  

Despite Steve begging for forgiveness, Miranda called it quits on their relationship. Thanks to the encouragement of her friends, however, the pair went to couples' therapy to try and work things out.

They both met up on Brooklyn Bridge a couple of weeks later - a pact they'd decided to go ahead with if they both wanted to forget the past and embark on a future together.  

When it came to the redhead's professional life, however, things didn't work out quite so neatly. 

In the second Sex and the City film, Miranda quit her job after her sexist boss continued to disregard her opinion, just because she was a woman. With nothing else lined up, her future career remained uncertain. 

What's next for Miranda? After joining a more relaxed firm who appreciated her expertise, it's likely Miranda will remain as career-driven as ever. 

And avid fans of the franchise will no doubt be looking forward to catching up on her personal life, when we reunite with her once again.  

But whatever happens, the trio will laugh through the good times and the bad thanks to the self-awareness and growth they've experienced over the last two decades.- with Miranda sure to remain as witty as ever! 

And with only hours until it hits our screens, we really can't wait to catch up with the girls.

Homeland and Little Fires Everywhere actress Sarita Choudhury has landed the role of single, self-made powerhouse Manhattan real estate broker Seema Patel.
