MadMen

Last night we had a party for the premier of one of our favorite TV shows MadMen Season 3 and to celebrate J's birthday this coming Wednesday. The dress code was 1960s and it was so fun to see everyone all dressed up!

J found a great retro 60s shirt and slicked his hair back- very dapper.


I opted for early 60s wear and a semi-beehive hairdo. I looked up a how-to-video on youtube and wahlah! I think it turned out pretty well!

We even had a makeshift bar like they do in their offices stocked with liquor to make Don's favorite: an Old Fashioned, a Tom Collins, or a Dry Martini! How great would it be to be able to drink at work?



Lilly and Ryan looking very stylish



Thuy and I getting a drink


Nealy and Damon looking cute


Karri harkening back to a Jacki O vibe


Lilly and Sarah enjoying some wine!


J wanted Key Lime Pie this year instead of birthday cake - him blowing out his candle (should have been 27 but that would have ruined the pie!)


Such a fun night...although I don't think we will be hosting parties on Sunday nights anymore! You can't drink as much because of work the next day and everyone has to leave early. Still a great party- one for the books.

This is one of those TV shows that I feel like I'm missing out on for not watching. I've never seen an episode and I've always worked in advertising, so my friends think I'd love it! I think I need to catch up on the first season DVD. Your party looks super fun:)
