10 reasons why "Girlfriends' Guide to Divorce" is the new "Sex and The City"

I feel it's my public duty to introduce you to a new show, on the off chance you haven't heard of it. There are many reasons for the introduction, but mainly I feel it's a public service announcement for women suffering from withdrawal after losing another show a short time ago. Friends of mine know that I pretty publicly mourned when Sex and The City aired its last episode. We gathered around the TV, my friends and I, as Samantha, Carrie, Miranda and Charlotte had their last breakfast and final indecent chit chat. We cried as if we were saying goodbye to our own friends. We sipped champagne and raised our glasses to the dawning of a new day, where HBO didn't hold us hostage once a week. Only, now, there's a new set of girls filling the empty hearts of Sex and The City fans, not to mention the time slot in our schedules. Yes, I can pretty confidently say there's now a show that's matching the lovely SATC ladies and it's called Girlfriends' Guide to Divorce. While there are striking differences between the shows, mainly the coasts of America in which they take place, there are so many reasons you'll find this as the plug for that hole in your heart that was punched in when Carrie left us all for Big...

So without further ado: 10 reasons why "Girlfriends' Guide to Divorce" is the new "Sex and The City"

1. Four Friends

Meet Abby, Phoebe, Delia and Lyla (later to be replaced by Jo). In a nutshell, it seems four is the way to go when it comes to the perfect number of friends to keep as soul mates. It's the magical number for brunch, clubs, parental problems and more. But what's important is that we're seeing the same group dynamic. Only in Girlfriends' Guide to Divorce, these girls are dealing with some rather new and informative issues - mainly centred around divorce. What a surprise.

2. Watch my wardrobe

Like SATC, Girlfriends' Guide to Divorce offers some serious fashion moments and each girl has their own particular style that defines them as a character. That all being said, I'd steal just about everything from Phoebe's closet and nearly everything that Abby wears on her quest for perfection.

3. The City - Los Angeles

Remember when everyone was saying that New York City was the fifth character in SATC? Well, in Girlfriends' Guide to Divorce Los Angeles plays the same part. This show is a great introduction to the city, showcasing everything from Malibu to Silverlake on the small screen. For those of you that already have love affairs with LA (totally talking about myself here), you'll be drooling all over the screen and booking a ticket after every episode. So unhealthy for bank accounts, really.

4. Men are the main talking point

While Girlfriends' Guide to Divorce goes a long way at once again showcasing the power of independent women, men are still the main talking point. The girls spend a long time working out the what ifs having to do with relationships - which may be healthy for those of us out there going through second marriages, breakups, etc etc. Yes, there is some wise advise imparted... right alongside the advice that should be taken with a pinch of salt - this is Hollywood, after all.

5. The drama

The drama is the glue in all of these shows, isn't it? And there's plenty of it on show here to keep you focused on the screen. Curve balls just keep coming. Sound familiar? Just when you get comfortable with a relationship status, expect a major blow up!

6. The professions

Let's start with the fact that the main character of the Girlfriends' Guide to Divorce is a writer. Yes, Abby writes how-to books, more or less. Yes, there is a striking resemblance to Carrie's character here. But, it's marvellous. Abby is a divorced mother of two who struggles more with keeping all the balls in her life in the air, rather than all the Manolos in her closet organised. Different strokes for different folks - but both provide solid entertainment.

7. Let's talk about sex

What on earth do four women talk about when they get together more than anything else? Well, there does seem to be a trend here and Abby, Phoebe, Delia and Jo all are well versed on handing out great advice when it comes to practises in the sack.

8. The young and the restless

All four of the women in Girlfriends' Guide to Divorce seem to be equal parts put together and a total mess. But, they command respect. Their peers and those women younger than them seem to hold these four on a pedestal and it makes for a dynamic dialogue throughout the show. Oh, remember the days of thinking the SATC girls had the best lives? I was 15 when I first started watching. Now it seems only appropriate, in my age bracket, that I've graduated to a show that focuses in on life after divorce and what happens on second marriages and with single parenting.

9. Women hold all the power

Speaking of respect for these women, don't ever think that they aren't truly in control of commanding it. The show is yet another example of empowering women. While the ladies talk about sex and men on a regular basis, they do come back to their own independence (and battle with it quite often) throughout the series. These are women that love men, but don't need them. They are successful in their business lives and in their maintenance of their incredible friendship. Yes, it's once again created that perfect foursome that you want to emulate at your own Sunday brunch table.

10. Repeat, again and again. Netflix and chill!

Girlfriends' Guide to Divorce will be a show that's watched on repeat, no doubt about it. Here's hoping it goes for ten seasons, at least!

To watch the show, tune into Netflix in the USA, or buy the DVD set in the UK - available at all major retailers and online to order.

FFG Travels: Soho Farmhouse

Over the past three months I haven't managed to scroll through any social network without some mention of Soho Farmhouse. Absolutely everyone seems to be taking a mini break in Oxfordshire at the idyllic hotspot. And, quite frankly speaking, I was starting to feel a bit out of the loop. So, as a member of Soho House, I took matters into my own hands and decided I'd book a little getaway of my own - under the guise of a birthday surprise for the man.

On a regular ole Tuesday, we made the journey to Soho Farmhouse. On the drive up (an easy 90 minutes from London) I started to wonder if the Farmhouse would live up to the hype. All I had heard was that it was quite simply miraculous - a brand new way to relax and enjoy the countryside. Yes, that's how I had actually heard it described, as a Londoner's country paradise. I'm a country girl at heart, so I was confused by this description of city meets country. It took all of three minutes for me to fall in love.

We drove onto the 100 acre property and were greeted by two very friendly women at the gates. They invited us to park our vehicle and pop in for a glass of wine as we registered and they prepared transport to our room. A tall and handsome gentleman arrived on the scene, wearing wellies and a beautiful Barbour jacket. We were led to a BMW that was caked in mud, both inside and out. Welcome to the country (I found this absolutely charming). A swift ride to our cabin and I knew I had found paradise. Yes, yes, yes.... Soho Farmhouse is everything and more. It 100% deserves every bit of hype. We walked into our cabin - number 16 - and were faced with a picturesque kitchenette that had everything from a contemporary coffee machine to a picnic basket, complete with plaid blanket. The main room had a fire burning in front of a kingsize bed, that looked out over a wrap around porch that sat on streaming river. Two rocking chairs, two loungers and a chair and table for dining were dotted over the porch. But, the main attraction was the stainless steel tub tucked away in the corner. Whoever thought up this genius addition to the cabins will one day get a great big embrace from me - just a warning.

While the room will keep you occupied for hours, days even, one may wish to socialize with others outside their sleeping quarters. Enter the entertainment overload of Soho Farmhouse. While you could easily believe you are the only people on the property, should you keep to yourselves, it would be a mistake to miss the beautiful options available to guests in public areas at Soho Farmhouse. The restaurants are worth the price of admission alone. Soho Farmhouse could easily be mistaken as a tiny village- of course that's the thinking. There's a main restaurant on site, a pub, a coffee house and even a comfy area for work or play above the main dining area. One could spend their whole experience just discovering the beauty of the public spaces.

Let's just say eating or drinking isn't you thing (stop reading now, you're on the wrong site... just FYI). Soho Farmhouse also offers plenty of options for those looking for a more active lifestyle. The spin class, I have on good authority, is insanely good. I was too busy having a massive breakfast to take notice. You can also burn off calories with a row in a boat on the lake, a swim in the indoor or outdoor pool, or perhaps with a stop at the stables for a quick canter with a beautiful horse. If you're looking for a more laid back approach to the day, you can have coffee in the farmyard or head back to your room for a game of scrabble. Yes, they have boardgames in the room! Be still my beating heart. And make sure you take the bikes, that are waiting for you outside your cabin, to and from the main areas. Truly, these guys have thought of everything.

In a nutshell, I'll say that Soho Farmhouse is more than I could have ever anticipated. In fact, it's so fabulous that I booked out my next stay before I left the premises. This is my new country escape and for fear of it being booked forever and beyond, I'm booking my regular retreats now. Who's headed there soon? Shall we plan a massive retreat or a row boat race? Get thee to Soho Farmhouse (it's open to everyone) now! 40 cabins book out fast. Just don't go taking number 16. It's mine, all mine! I wonder if they'd be interested in a permanent resident!
