If I had found the time for the Mad Men challenge, I would have made the sleeveless peach dress (the first photo in your post). I may still try to make something like it this summer.

But I probably wouldn't be either if my husband was never around etc. I do agree that she gets less likeable as the Seasons progress, but I still have a soft spot for her clothes ;o)Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12632906323410997355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7593765464158159022.post-24902986154288857752012-03-28T23:41:06.906+01:002012-03-28T23:41:06.906+01:00Hehe!

As her character became less likeable and as we got to see more lovely office-appropriate looks sported by Joan, Peggy, Dr. Faye, and the other female characters, I found myself more drawn to their working girl styles than Betty's pretty housewife look. Betty's style will always hold a special place in my heart, though! :)Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02303837420300176952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7593765464158159022.post-66068874902286697412012-03-28T12:30:07.485+01:002012-03-28T12:30:07.485+01:00I'm not with you I'm afraid.
