Retro - Mad Men

  

Mad Men is set in the late 1950s early 1960s, initially at Sterling Cooper advertising agency on Madison Avenue in New York City. The focal point of the series is Don Draper, creative director at Sterling Cooper and the people in his life, both in and out of the office. As such, it regularly depicts the changing moods and social mores of 1960s America.

Recently I have been catching up on the T.V. series Mad Men. Not only does the series  have a great plot structure but I sometimes will just get lost completely and the costuming and design of this fabulous show. I'm not one to have time or patience for T.V. but when every episode feels like and great short film I can't help it.

And lets not forget about the absolutely handsome cufflinks used in this series!  I'm really close to buying my boyfriend a french cuffed shirt just an excuses to buy cufflinks.
