if i could go shopping in any one ladies closet,
it would have to be that of jackie o. or grace kelly.
i just adore their timeless. feminine. style.
of course, it is no surprise that i am nuts about betty drapers digs.
as her wardrobe was heavily influenced by jackie & grace.
don't you love it all?
the silhouettes. the collars. the nipped waists. the sashes.
classic style at its greatest.

I too became enamored with Betty's costumes while watching 'Mad Men'. So much so decided to research the show's designer, Janie Bryant. By happy accident I stumbled upon a book she published called "The Fashion File". You can find it at Barnes and Noble in hardback still. It's jam packed with fun history flashbacks and her philosophies of fashion. Came away with many vintage wardrobe inspirations for myself. And find they've updated my choices with a one-of-a-kind je ne sais quoi. Definate conversational starters!
