there is so much that i love about "Mad Men" that i can't even put it all into words. Christina Hendrix, is gorgeous and Brilliant as kick ass head secretary joan (she really is my favorite part of the entire show). My real love for "Mad Men" though comes from my deep deep love for all things 60's. the hair, the clothes, the style, the attitude, the furniture, i love it all. it just has such a total elegance to it that know other era can begin to compete with. the sixties was a time when people really took pride in the way they looked. Men shaved every day, and wore a suit and a tie to work. they would never be caught in a pair of jeans and a t shirt, being stylish meant looking polished. Women did their hair, and tried to look meticulous, and effortless all at the same time. there was a certain sense of pride in the home, and the idea of dinner parties, and social gatherings were done with a grace, and class. if you bought something that was expensive, it meant that it was well made, and valuable. things used to be focused on being stylish and classic, not trendy or of the moment. the sixties weren't about fads, they were about change and innovation. In honor of my love for the sixties, i am going to try and incorporate a little mad men style into my everyday life.





season three needs to come out on DVD really soon. if you haven't seen it yet, now is the time to get caught up :)
