Okay I am a total FREAK for MadMen and the series premier is this Sunday. I'm getting so pumped! I was getting stressed thinking that I don't remember a dang thing from that show since I haven't seen it in almost 2 years ( what kind of a show can do that and get away with it?) but since they have always started each season with a huge gap…normally the time passes and they pick up probably a year later and we are left to fill in all the blanks with our imaginations anyhow I'm thinking I might be okay and don't need to start watching all last season again.
I remember the important points, that Don the cad will probably be married to the sweet Quebecer girl that was his office assistant that he got to help look after his children on vacation, or they could be ready to divorce already since he seems to be totally incapable of keeping his zipper zipped for any length of time.
The office bombshell and all around she's-so-much-smarter-and-more-put-together-than-you-will-ever-be Joan is having a baby…did she tell anyone that it's Rogers other than Roger? Her extremely good looking but dense as a doorknob fiance (or husband? I don't recall ) will never be able to figure it out on his own.
All the stories and characters facinate me but what I'm really looking forward to is the fashion. Back when people really knew how to dress. Mr. Mad Men please give me more of this

Oh and did you check out the latest offerings from Banana Republic for their MadMen inspired collection?
I had these gorgeous boots from Anthropologie on my "I love and want so badly" list for a good 6 months before I was actually able to pick them up on a trip to NYC. I've only worn them twice and received compliments on them both times out. They are a boot made for summer. The pattern you see on them is actually holes in the leather so the air passes through them and keeps your legs and feet cool. Anyone that knows me knows that I'm a bootaholic so it is nice to have some that I can wear even as it gets warmer outside. This outfit was perfect for the amazing summer-like weather we have been experiencing but transitions well into cooler weather when worn with some tights instead of bare legs and switching out the summer hat with a tweed Poor Boy hat.
