I'm never really sure how personal this blog should be, so let's just say I've had a rough week. we were supposed to move into a new apartment. it didn't work out. we're temporarily homeless. that's it in a nutshell.
but! I'm trying to think positively about everything that's going on, so I'm just gonna breeze right past that stuff and share an outfit with y'all.
now that I'm done bombarding you with pictures from Ireland I can get back to my little Mad Men series. this is the part where I wear my interpretation of looks for each leading lady. first up is Joanie!
skirt + blouse- h&m // back-seam stockings- american apparel // flats- primark
I went for Joan's signature vibrant, beehived secretary look. bright pencil skirt, trendy blouse (although I doubt Joan would wear polka dots- I work with what I've got, people) and matching shoes.
I thought the back seam added a nice little detail since the 60s didn't really call for tights, but the weather here does. and I must admit, I am pretty pleased with myself about the hair. I like how it turned out. took a lot of effort though, haha.
alrighty then. I'm pretty exhausted. I'll be recreating Peggy next, so hopefully some of her drive and tenacity will rub off on me. I could use a little Peggy Olson spirit these days!
goodnight. ♥
playing: welcome- hey rosetta!
