Loving Mad Men...& January Jones!

So this past Sunday AMC had a Mad Men marathon and there is definitely a lot of fuss going on with the third season about to begin. I kept reading and hearing about the show all over the place and decided to give it a go. I normally don't like to start in on shows when they are into the 2nd or 3rd season thinking I missed some important events and will have a hard time understanding whats going on. Well it took about 3 episodes and I was hooked. The show basically stole my attention because it takes place in the early 1960's so the world and everyone in it was run a completely different way than today. It's fascinating to see just what "old fashioned" really means and the clothes the women wore...all stunning. The dresses, the jewelry, the hair and make-up it's all so inspiring. January Jones who plays the typical "Perfect Patty Housewife" Betty Draper is to me what the 60's was all about. Besides getting wrapped up in the story itself I find her to be captivating in her own light. She looks fabulous in every scene! She's to me an all around classy blonde bombshell. The last few pics are from the January '09 Vanity Fair issue. I came across them and couldn't resist, so far it's one of my favorite spreads.
