Mad Men Fashion - Vintage comeback


So I've been watching season 1 of Mad Men and been falling in love with the old 1960's feminine style.  It's a very put together, collective, classy, and very classic look.  They also heavily accessorize with matching shoes, pins, earrings, necklaces, gloves..etc.   Love it!    Love love the prints, the fabrics, and clean lines!  Very Jackie-o  american sports wear.

Sexy! Michael Kor's Fall 08' Mad Med inspired runway





They do say fashion recycles no?  And vintage has always been *hot* .  Alas, I don't think i'll ever manage to look as put together though!

Here are some Mad Men inspired finds from Modcloth.com :

Would love this silk dress for a bday dinner!

thinking of getting it for the upcoming wedding?
classic red dress, love the wrap neck !
add some bracelets/cuffs / pearl earrings?
Cute for the office!
office and dinner date?  

to a bday dinner?



if I was tall, I'd totally wear this!!


I'm a sucker for sweetheart necklines

like the interesting neck





would look nice under a classic trench

what a sweet dress!  I love chiffon!


kind of like the large bow


These are only a FEW that caught my eye on the site...so many more, didn't have time to comb through.  But modcloth is kind of expensive (100 ish for a dress)  for what it is though (only slightly better than f21)  Blah...would love to try these on though!

Some cheap alternatives to modcloth (they have similar or the same dresses at lower prices)
urbanog.com
shopruche.com

or if you're in the bay area, stop by SWAY clothing (in Berkeley, SF, and Concord I think)  they also carry many of the same styles and much lower prices!  Or keep an eye out at your local F21, I'm sure you'll find something similar too!
