Miranda is smart, self-assured and proud of her achievements.
She raises the bar for herself continually, be it in
her professional or personal life. She made partner
in her law firm and was able to buy her own pre-war
apartment on the Upper West Side (Take a look inside).
However, she's struggled with her love life and, at
times, abandoned the pursuit of love altogether. Tough
and down-to-earth, she doesn't open up easily, masking
her vulnerability with cynicism and self-deprecating
humor. Throughout her long-term relationship with Steve,
she had bouts of doubt about her true feelings and was
constantly frustrated with Steve's laid-back approach
to life.
His attempts to bring their relationship to a new level
only seemed to push her farther away. They gave up,
but managed to salvage their friendship. Much to her
dismay, Miranda's post-Steve dates haven't panned out.
When Steve lost one of his testicles to cancer, Miranda
boosted his male morale with a night of passion. Shortly
after, she realized she was pregnant. She had every
intention of having an abortion, but minutes before
the procedure, she had a change of heart and decided
to keep the baby. She wondered if this was her last
chance at motherhood. As her pregnancy progressed, she
feared she didn't have a maternal instinct and struggled
to juggle her demanding career with her new identity
as a mommy-to-be. Nature took its course, and, with
Carrie and Steve by her side, she gave birth to Brady
Hobbes.
Not shockingly, Miranda grappled with her new role
as a single working mom. She had to come to terms with
how being a parent would change her relationships with
her friends and any new man that might come along. And
Miranda and Steve accidentally rekindled their sexual
relationship one night, forcing Miranda to take a hard
look at her complicated attachment to Steve. A brief
relationship with the dashing Dr. Robert Leeds ultimately
ended, due to Miranda's feelings for Steve, but fortunately,
Steve's feelings proved to be mutual and the two decided
to make another go at it.
Fashion Sense
For pragmatic Miranda, fashion is more about getting
the job done than following the latest trends. By day,
her lawyerly look tends towards smart tailored suits.
This year we've seen her experiment more with color,
especially rich wines and purples that accent her fiery
red crop. Though she tends toward casual sportswear
on the weekend, she keeps up with the girls just fine
in sexy slip dresses and funky accessories. Take a closer
look at Miranda's style in our fashion slideshows.
