The clothes are very pretty, modern and retro at the same time. I'm kind of disappointed that they don't have petite sizing. When BR did this style about 5 years ago (they didn't call it mad men back then) they had petites available. </p> <p>I think I can do these looks with clothes that I already have at home. I am comfortable with this bombshell style, I just need to make sure it doesn't veer into costume territory.</p> <p>ETA: How wrong I was! They do have petite sizes! Hmmm.... I have to take another look! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mad-men-collection-1#post-403074 Fri, 12 Aug 2011 14:18:49 +0000 Deborah 403074@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the heads up...must take a look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mad-men-collection-1#post-403054 Fri, 12 Aug 2011 13:55:00 +0000 Marvel Girl 403054@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just popped on the BR website and they have a code for 25% off of a purchase of $100. I think I'm going to grab that navy bow top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mad-men-collection-1#post-403022 Fri, 12 Aug 2011 12:54:54 +0000 Turkey Vulture 403022@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I got out to a BR last night to check it out and I have to say I really liked a lot of the pieces in person. Modernized vintage is my style, though. I am sorely tempted by some of the a-line skirts and the lace tops are gorgeous...I could see myself wearing those with EVERYTHING. I've got some coupons for BR so I should just go for it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mad-men-collection-1#post-402491 Thu, 11 Aug 2011 18:35:38 +0000 Nakidra 402491@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I saw a suit that I liked (the one with bracket length sleeves) but BR suits are typically a NO for me... They have a weird fiton me, I think I'm between sizes. I loved how everything was styled, but I'll have to wait for the sale </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mad-men-collection-1#post-402362 Thu, 11 Aug 2011 15:19:00 +0000 Marvel Girl 402362@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie-I'm glad that I posted something useful! </p> <p>Di-I just couldn't resist them! I wear a lot of cardigans and I think they'll look super classy underneath. But I get what you're saying. I was hoping there would be more accessories. The necklace and scarves look like very similar to items in other stores. Besides the shells, I really REALLY love the leopard cardi and the navy silk bow top but they're just a bit too expensive for me right now. They're so beautiful though. I'm going to keep a look out for BR discount codes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mad-men-collection-1#post-402346 Thu, 11 Aug 2011 14:56:30 +0000 Di 402346@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>MG, that shell is wonderful.</p> <p>I really expected to like the collection more than I do. That era usually fits me (and my figure) perfectly, but there's something about the proportions on a lot of it that I can tell isn't going to work this time. =( Money saved, I guess. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mad-men-collection-1#post-402341 Thu, 11 Aug 2011 14:52:48 +0000 Angie 402341@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have to take a peek asap. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mad-men-collection-1#post-402300 Thu, 11 Aug 2011 13:57:32 +0000 Marvel Girl 402300@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Is anyone picking up anything from the Banana Republic Mad Men collection? I love way too much of it but I managed to contain myself and just order the lace shell in black and white. If they fit properly, I think they might be workhorses. </p>
