Any Sex and the City fan remembers Carrie’s incredibly charming apartment that had plenty of room for her to lounge around, pondering romantic quandaries and searching for the perfect outfit in her enviable walk-in closet.

If you don’t believe us, just compare it to the apartment Marnie Michaels (Allison Williams) lives in on Girls. Mindy Kaling Received the Most Extravagant Gift from an Intern (Hint: It’s Miniature and Amazing) Williams posted this Instagram of an image that accompanied an article in The New York Times comparing the two fictional floor plans.

The former’s West Village pad is the stuff of every 20-something’s dreams, while Abbi’s gritty small-space dwelling is a bit more realistic. Even if you can’t have Carrie’s walk-in closet or Monica’s perfect purple living room, there’s still a good chance you could live above a coffee shop.
