Return of Mad Men

Is it just me or has it felt like forever since Mad Men was on? The 2 hour Season 6 premiere finally airs this Sunday. I could watch it for the wardrobe alone! Costume Designer Janie Bryant does an amazing job of making sure all the outfits are spot on & impeccable. The 60′s were such an important era for fashion & she hits the nail on the head in every episode. Here are some of the cast photos for the new season. I’m dying for the women’s looks, especially Joan & Megan.

I got the opportunity to attend a show featuring the work of Andy Warhol recently & it didn’t disappoint. Seeing the iconic artist’s work in person is always a treat & this time was no exception. Here’s the info from the Christie’s official press release:
