The Sex and the City premiere turns 20 on Wednesday. And the real-life Miranda Hobbes, New York gubernatorial candidate Cynthia Nixon, has found quite the appropriate way to commemorate the occasion: by launching campaign merchandise inspired by the HBO show.

“Are you a Miranda voting for Cynthia? In honor of #SATC20, here’s a line of Miranda merchandise designed by the team behind the ‘Every Outfit on Sex and the City’ Instagram account… because, well, we should all be Mirandas who vote for Cynthia,” Nixon tweeted on Tuesday. Such a Miranda move.

The collection features hats, T-shirts, tote bags, and more featuring variations on the motto, “I’m a Miranda and I’m voting for Cynthia.” (The toddler merch reads, “I’m a Miranda Future Governor of New York”; a baseball cap says, “I’m a Miranda Governor.”) Now, you can’t help but wonder: What about those of us who are more of a Carrie who’s voting for Cynthia, or a Samantha or, god forbid, Charlotte? A bit of a missed opportunity… but, that’s beside the point.

This isn’t the first time Nixon has proven she’s a master at branding. Her official campaign store also sells a tee styled after the “unqualified lesbian” jab from former mayoral candidate Christine Quinn, as well as another inspired by her vocal critiques of incumbent governor Andrew Cuomo’s handling of the New York City subway system.

While we’re still waiting for the t-shirts that read “I drink coffee, have sex, buy pies, and enjoy battery-operated devices,” these will suffice. Hey, they’ll pair white well with our overalls and puffer coats.

The special anniversary-edition Cynthia for New York T-shirts are $35 each, while the tote goes for $30; a cap will set you back $38.
