This is the third entry in AMC's Mad Men Style weekly vlog series.  It discusses one of my absolute favorite parts of a woman's wardrobe: dresses.  By the way, the purple dress they designed for Joan when she went to work for Bonwit Teller is truly a beautiful piece.  We have a pair of vintage 5...

This is the second entry in AMC's Mad Men Style weekly vlog series.  This one covers skirts and accessories.  I know I'm on a bit of a Mad Men kick as of late.  I love the show and adore the fashion of the time period.  With the new season having just begun, I'm caught up in the fever.  Enjoy!

The 80's were great for many things. Whether or not fashion was one of them is truly debatable. I've been in many a passio...
