This Rocks!

December 29th, 2009 @ 5:47 pm by Mrs. Glitter

I’ve never seen Mad Men, not because I’m not interested, but because there are only so many hours in a day, and I already watch way too much TV. Guilty as charged. But I’m thinking that I may need to cave and finally add Mad Men to my ridiculously long DVR wish list - if only to drool over all the retro fashion goodness.

Christina Hendricks of Mad Men recently got married in real life, and please note her awesome vintage-clad bridal party.

I was so excited to see this. Bridesmaids’ dresses can be about as exciting as watching paint dry. I’ll admit it—the dress I picked for my bridesmaids was simple and pretty, but rather cookie cutter. I just didn’t find much that I liked in the price range I needed. Maybe I should have tried my local vintage shop? Something tells me I probably would not have scored such amazing dresses! But you never know…

What unique places have you gone to shop for wedding dresses?

Wow, that’s so cool! Christina Hendricks is so gorgeous, and her bridal party is so creatively dressed! At first I thought it was a screenshot from the series!

Pictures like that make me feel so much better about my “find a knee-length purple dress” instructions that I gave my bridesmaids. Every once in a while, I have doubts over going with the mis-matched look. And then, I see something gorgeous :)

Yes! I saw this yesterday. So amazing… I feel the same way about my MOH’s pink dress. It’s very pretty, but simple. We’ll just have to jazz it up with accessories.

Such a beautiful set of dresses. I haven’t branched out on my dress-shopping-or-looking yet, but I’m getting closer to it by the day. :p

She looks amazing!!! How fun are they?! I think that I’ll just chose a color or actually have them draw a color from a hat and then they can go to town, I have no specifications for them… I suppose the bouquets will match lol!
