End of An Era: Mad Men

June 17, 2015

I'm still waiting for the last 5 episodes of Mad Men to pop up on Netflix, however I could not help but see this awesome scene with Peggy from one of the last episodes. It was all over my social media feeds the day after the episode aired and I'm not one to freak out about a spoiler. I actually kind of love them and I totally love this scene. It really has me excited about binge watching the last 5 episodes. I have no idea where I'll get my fix for 1960's era Manhattan after the show ends. I guess I'll just have to re-watch some of my fav classic flicks that were filmed during that era (The Apartment, Breakfast At Tiffany's, Love With A Proper Strange, Barefoot in The Park etc....). Along with the writing and acting, I'm so going to miss the mid-century sets, fashion, hair, drinks, furniture, gadgets and history.  Though many significant society changing events from that decade when not addressed I did love when the show intersected with actual historical events. This history & design nerd will miss this show oh so much....

Princess Diana was for realz a style icon. The suit, the snake broach ❤️❤️❤️.
Finally got to take my #vegan desert boots from @clarksoriginals  for a spin! Very comfy, however since they are mens they fit differently than women’s shoes.
