Textual analysis of SATC
The camera cuts to a room full of instruments and we learn that Carrie is on a second date with a Jazz musician named Ray. He is obviously deeply passionate about music as we can tell from the mise-en-scene of varied instruments and shelves stacked high with vinyl records. Carrie is wearing a casual jeans and t-shirt outfit, which shows that she is relaxed around the man she is currently dating. However she has accessorised with a pearl necklace which gives us a glimpse of the feminine and sophisticated Carrie that we often see.
