Don’t hate me, but I never got into Mad Men. I know…I know. I’m crazy not to watch it right? For whatever reason, it never made it into my tv show rotation. I can, however, completely appreciate the Mad Men costuming!
I’m sure most of you have seen Banana Republic’s Mad Men collection by now. I haven’t pulled the trigger on buying any of the pieces yet, but I’m completely enamored with this leopard cardi!
Fashion’s Night Out just might be just the motivation I need to score it. If you’re attending the FNO in Tampa at Interntional Plaza, you’ll receive 25% off your $100 purchase at Banana Republic. You can go here for even more fabulous FNO deals!

I love Mad Men style. I have been excited for BR’s collection for a while now. They’ve been hyping it for so long. Lol.

You and me both! I love absolutely love this new collection. Hopefully I’ll have an excuse to procure a piece or two.
[Reply]
Love this! And the collection is surprisingly affordable!
[Reply]
I LOVE the idea of this but find the choice of models odd. If they are using the logo, I wish they used the actual actors some how… because their Joan model ain’t no Joan! ;o)
[Reply]
I hear you, honestly scotch drinking womanizing ad professionals didn’t exactly hit a spot with me either… saw the first season and that was it. BUT I love the pearls and the shift dresses and the works… perhaps not the whole look replicated but definite inspiration!
[Reply]
Yes please!
[Reply]
Love this cardi!
[Reply]
i never got into Mad Men but i do adore their clothes!
[Reply]
Oh how I love this collection at BR! All of it is amazing!

I’m thinking that collection is more than hip!
[Reply]
I kind of hate Mad Men, but I watch it anyway
I guess I just watch it for…the clothes?
[Reply]
This collection looks fantastic. I’m trying to find pieces similar at other stores just because I don’t want to be wearing clothes that so many other people have!
[Reply]
The can’t watch Mad Men, but I heart the clothes and decor. I should just watch it on mute for those things! I better to check out the new BR collection now
[Reply]
I’ve never seen the show before. I’ve seen Christina Hendricks in interviews and I think she is very lovely and I do love the clothes worn by the men and women on the show. I’m obsessed with that era though, it reminds me of the photos I have seen of my grandparents from that time. Women were just so classy and glamorous then. My grandma would be pleased to see this style coming back. If she were to see the stuff a lot of girls are wearing these days, she would be disgusted.

WHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT? You don’t watch madmen????? I don’t know if I can be a fan of your blog anymore! LOL!!! You have to watch that show, it is too good and the costumes are gorgeous, the politics and the advertising life in the 60s cannot be showcased more precisely on that show! I wasn’t a fan initially but one night there was nothing to watch and I stumbled upon it and was HOOKED! Not to mention…Don and I have a date every Sunday! He is sooooo handsome… I always pour a glass of red wine while I watch the show and don’t tell anyone this, I also put on my Clarins mask while I am watching the show
everyone is going to see this aren’t they! LOL!!!
[Reply]
I haven’t gone to see it in person. It looks amazing online. Now…if only Mad Men would come back to AMC!!!
[Reply]
That cardi is perfection! xo
[Reply]
I’ve never even seen Mad Men. I actually had no idea what it was until all of the tweets regarding the event that Banana Republic held. This ensemble is lovely!!
[Reply]
Love it! I dont get the channel it’s on so I can’t watch

[Reply]
I’ve never watched it either but I love the costume inspiration! The pieces at BR are lovely!
[Reply]
Oooh I didn’t know there was a Mad Men collection! Thanks for passing it along! I did my post about MadMen too! You only have to watch a few to get hooked. Some night when a movie won’t do…you may want to try it!
[Reply]
We saw the first couple of shows and didn’t really like it, though the clothes and furniture were really cool. I’ll have to look into that collection – very cute pic!
[Reply]
Saw this in Vanity Fair–LOVE!
[Reply]
I don’t even know what Mad Men is, and I am not much of a fashionista (although I wish I was, Lol!) But I wanted to say thank you for checking out my blog, and I’m here returning the blog love! Now following ya! =)
[Reply]
Ooh, I really love this cardigan–it would look great with so many different things! I think a leopard-print cardigan is what I need this season!
[Reply]
I never started watching either, although I know I need to Netflix it at some point! Loving the Banana Republic collection. Everything is perfection!
[Reply]
that is cute! i do love the clothes on that show
[Reply]
soooooo looking forward to next week’s events!
[Reply]
I got one of the mad men collection dresses last weekend….soooo cute!
[Reply]
I never got into the show either, but I’m definitely on the same page about loving it fashion-wise! Unfortunately, one blogger had said she was extremely disappointed about the quality of it, so I guess I’ll have to check out the collection in person.
[Reply]
I haven’t purchased any of it either (and I don’t watch the show)…. but I do appreciate it!
[Reply]
I am so glad that there is someone else that hasn’t watched Mad Men. I know I would love it and therefore if I started it, it would take up all sorts of time I don’t have. But I too, love the retro trend the show is inspiring.
[Reply]
Yep, I’m with you! Love that cardi!
xx
[Reply]
Oooo I’m loving that leopard cardigan!! I go in and out of liking that show, it’s good for a while but then it does get dull. Oh well…maybe season 5 will rock the town! =)
[Reply]
RIGHT?! My bestie sent me the BR link to this collection last week and I died. Seriously. This style is exactly my style… classic
And that leopard print trench?!?! Must. Obtain.

I am excited about FNO, I doubt I will buying since my new adventures in budgeting. Still, its sure to be a fun night.
[Reply]
I love it and I love Mad Men! Awesome show!
[Reply]
Love the collection! I don’t watch the show either…but I heard it is quite good!
[Reply]
I just started watching Mad Men on Netflix and I’m so obsessed with the clothes, so this collection makes me very happy!
[Reply]
Mad Men has been quite the biggest inspiration trend these days.
Love it.

I love that show and the clothes of the time!
[Reply]
Its gorgeous, I bought a similar one from Esprit this Winter and Ive barely taken it off!
[Reply]
I’ve never watched it either. I have too much TV to watch as it is!
[Reply]
I just ordered one of the dresses- I am so excited to see it!
[Reply]
You need to start watching that show ASAP, the fashion is amazing! I love this collection.
[Reply]
I never managed to watch Mad Men either. I’m dying to catch it. I love this collection. Very 50′s. Love her lisptick as well.
