Dress me for a mad men party!

[shadow]

I'm so excited...We just got an invitation to a mad men soiree in a few weeks! We leave for vaca next week, so I won't have much time to shop when we get back.

What should DH and I wear?! Woohhoooo!! I've always wanted to go to one of these! I'm a big dork but... Dress me!

Doesn't Banana Republic have a Mad Men inspired line? It might be on the clearance rack by now.

And yes, I need to know who you wish to be before I can help you.

Oh, oh, be betty. You could totally rock betty.

My H and I went as Don and Betty for Halloween last year, this is what we did:

DH:

Get some of those fake powder cigarettes!

Hmmm....I'm not sure who I would be. Probably a Betty, but I love all of their clothes. I just wish DH looked more like Donald Draper. haha Maybe this is my excuse to get him a dark haired wig.

Y4m-Love that outfit!!

Daria-I can't see anything

Yes! Very cool!

I'm loving the glasses for DH. I think his head's to big for a hat.

Dh's shirt had short sleeves--I stumbled on that and also that awesome bowtie at a thrift store.

Glasses and cigs came from www.mallatts.com

I would go with shabbyapple.com or modcloth.com

These are all really cute. But I think my favorite so far is the giraffe print one. Pencil skirts are great for my big butt/thighs.

Depending on the brand and the cut, I'm anywhere between a 4 and an 8. So about a 6.

I'm sure Modcloth is the better bet then:)

I think you DH should just do a suit with a skinny tie and a hat if he can find one. Keep it classy:)
