Calling All Mad Men Lovers (and a Contest)


I love Mad Men. I honestly don't care much at all for what goes on during the show, I mean it is interesting, but that's not why I watch. I watch for the style. The clothes. The sexy, chic of the wardrobe. I mean look at these people. How could you not want want to look like that?

So imagine my extreme delight when I received a save the date for a holiday party saying its theme this year would be Mad Men. It was probably the most exciting email I've gotten in months.

But then came the dilemma: what on earth will I wear? I can do the office attire easy peasy: cardigan and pencil skirt or a sheath dress. I can knock that out without a thought.

I, however, don't want to show up to a holiday party in business casual, even if it is 60s era business casual. I want Mad Men party style. What on earth does that mean? Where shall I get it?

This is where you come in. I need your help.

Please scour the interwebs and find me some possible Mad Men party candidates. If I go with your suggestion, you will win a prize that has yet to be determined.

Here are some pics to give you a feel:








I clearly did my own quick search and came up with these two possible options. But I know we can do better.
