Crazy for Mad Men


I've recently began watching Mad Men after hearing nothing but good things about this retro flashback to life in the early 1960's, and what can I say, I am hooked. Besides the fact that it is a very amazing show, I am now obsessed with the fashion of the cast. The styling of the characters is impeccable as what they wear tends to resemble and amplify their personality. Here are some more modern looks with a vintage vibe so you can embody your favorite mad men character:


If you would like to replicate Peggy's sophisticated wardrobe with a more stated color palate:


Betty's more feminine, classy housewife look:


And Joan Holloway's : 


And here are some other choices that have a vintage flare and have a combination of all of the Mad Men ladies style:


Well hope you enjoyed! Have a happy Sunday everyone!

Fresh Florals

Happy Thursday everyone! Today as I was lazily laying in bed while putsing around on the internet doing some window shopping, I noticed that everything I took a liking to had some sort of floral pattern. Lately, when I walk into a store even, I seem to gravitate towards anything that has flowers on it. Here are some of the items I found:

And some more:

Throwing some items such as these into your wardrobe will give your outfit a fun and flirty vibe, and this look is a trendy idea for summertime. Have a good day!

Scarlet Fever

     Being a senior in high school with the notion that it's spring season, can you guess which big event I have marked in my schedule in the upcoming weeks? Prom, which to me is a little overrated, but despite my indifference, how often do I have the chance to wear a such a beautiful gown? Not very often. For this years occasion, I wanted to portray an essence of red carpet glamour, along with the classic delicacy captured by a woman in a scarlet dress. My motto: less is more, especially when it comes to making a bold statement, because it has to appear effortless, and an overdone palette screams the exact opposite. Initially I braced myself for disappointment in my search to find the perfect dress and lowered my expectations, and surprisingly it seemed to work, considering the second dress I tried on took the cake. I guess in any shopping situation optimism is the key.

Trend: Tights + Booties

     I discovered ModCloth a while back in my search to find affordable online shops comparable to Urban Outfitters, which is my absolute favorite store might I add, and when I came across it, I immediately fell in love. I rather enjoy the mix of retro elegance, along with the unique vintage inspired pieces that it features. New products are posted everyday, so they keep it fresh, but I warn you, things sell out very quickly. These three outfit ideas pictured above, have a similar element of black tights and lace-up ankle boots which i thought was a cute transition into spring from the chilly winter months. Well I hope you enjoy!
