How to Dress like the ‘Mad Men’ Ladies:
Introducing (from left): Betty Draper, Peggy Olson & Joan Holloway
FYI: I’m crazy about Mad Men (a little late, I know). This show got me all excited about full skirts, vintage scarfs and that ‘perfect’ Betty Draper hairdo. The show’s style showcases the evolution of fashion from the 50s full skirts to 60s mod over the past three seasons. Let’s just say pre-Jackie O style days, shall we? We definitely got a good mix of the 50s and 60s – ooh, I likey! Oh no, Mad Men-mania doesn’t end here – the show’s costume designer, Janie Bryant will be releasing a Mad Men style guide later in the year and a clothing line with QVC! How awesome is that? I’m verbally pre-ordering the book right now.
Who’s your favourite Mad Men‘s Style? Mine is definitely Betty Draper (now Betty Francis). Here’s a quick style guide of all the leading ladies – so take your pick for Halloween ideas:
LOVE Magazine has done it again. This time, eight magnificent cover models and they all looked gorgeous! To be honest, I hate it when magazines do that! I don’t know which one to get. On Friday, I need Alessandra Ambrosio on the cover. Next day, I was digging the Gisele Bundchen cover. Tomorrow, I might change my mind again – Agyness Deyn? Today, I’m in the mood for Rosie Huntington-Whiteley‘s “Mad Men” sexy siren look. And can you believe 66-year old Lauren Hutton also nabbed herself a cover? RESPECT! Other covers include Kelly Brook, Sienna Miller and “what-is-that” Buela. Scroll down to see the exclusive preview of the covers.
YESTERDAY. I met a PRINCE. Haha, too bad it’s not a fairy tale that I could brag about. The Eco Art Parade of Jewellery 2010 is a travelling exhibition from Monaco to Abu Dhabi via Singapore happening from 28 August – 12 September 2010. His Serene Highness Prince Albert II of Monaco graced event on Friday night. The 35 exquisite jewellery pieces were inspired by the theme of the “Asiatic Hornbill and the U.A.E.Saker Falcon”. These beautiful blings will be auctioned off and 100% of the proceeds will go to the following charities: Foundation Prince Albert ll of Monaco, BirdLife International, Una Energy Children’s Fund (UNECF), Hafiz and a foundation selected by His Excellency Sheikh Nahayan Mabarak Al-Nahayan.
If only I could afford the blings, I could do my part for charity. I guess I’ll leave the bidding games to the rich men and tai-tais.
His Serene Highness Prince Albert II of Monaco and the rest.
My favourite piece – I want to wear this neck piece!
