For the few of you out there who AREN'T watching Mad Men, I KNOW I need to chill on all the late-50s, early-60s-inspired Mad Men fashions, but also, on the other hand, WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU WAITING FOR? IT'S THE GREATEST SHOW IN THE HISTORY OF TELEVISION! FOR REAL! I've been super sick, and the one redeeming thing about that has been that at least I've been able to catch up on all of the Mad Men I've missed.
Okay, lemme back up right quick, by the way.
If you haven't seen the show, here's what you need to do. It's what I did.
1.) Buy the Season 1 DVD, Netflix it, or borrow it from a friend.
2.) Download the first few eps on iTunes = WORTH it.
3.) Watch the rest of Season 2 on on-demand; in Brooklyn and parts of Manhattan, it's on "Entertainment on Demand," channel 1012.
4.) Watch all the video extras on AMCTV.com
5.) Feel your life INSTANTLY improving!!!!
Oh yeah, there's also a Mad Men marathon on AMC starting tomorrow (Thursday, Sept 25), but it's only the first eight episodes of Season 2.
And no, I DON'T work for AMC, but I kinda almost wish I did.
Okay, onto the fashions, in petites and plus sizes too!!
($89.50, MICHAEL Michael Kors)Is there ANYTHING more Joan Holloway than a cheetah-print pencil skirt? I think not! Also, here's how to spend almost $900 more on an almost identical skirt by the same designer.
($89, OneStopPlus.com)Super elegant, and the dark shades and high waist makes this super Mad Men. In sizes 14 - 26.
($69, OneStopPlus.com)
($69, OneStopPlus.com)Love this pleated crepe dress. AND it comes in black, purple, blue, and red, all in sizes 14-26. Check Chadwick's for the exact same pleated crepe dress in sizes 4 -18.
($79, OneStopPlus.com)
All you need's a small little patent handbag hanging over your forearm, a pillbox hat, and a three-martini lunch, and you're good! (Same dress in smaller sizes here at Chadwick's.)

mad men honestly has the best costume design I've ever seen - Joan's outfits are To Die For. I adore watching her, the woman is stunning and her dresses are so fab.
The costume design is great, and we are really feeling it here in the UK too. You can check out Shortlist.com or go to http://www.shortlist.com/style-grooming/article/mad-men-style/1 for some men's great grooming guidelines on how to look like you've just stepped off of the Mad Men set!
