Mad Men and True Blood

So... every Sunday night Liz comes over and we watch True Blood and Mad Men. These shows are so good that I pretty much live for Sunday night.

So when Liz told me she wanted to be Joan Holloway for a Halloween party I just about died.

Liz gathered some thumbnails for us to study. She brought over some liquid liner and an I Love Lucy wig. We pinned the wig and applied a ton of make-up, threw on some gold jewelry and voile - you've got Joan.

Here's a polaroid of the finished look. Taken in my kitchen, next to the brownies Liz made.

In this picture you can see the Michael Graves toaster I recently purchased (I was craving toast) and our cute Halloween kitchen towels hanging on the stove.

Hi Kathleen & Jeremy ~

I completely relate to this post. We are sooooooo addicted to Mad Men and True Blood! The fact that MM is on hiatus makes me sad. I think it should be on year round to keep us happy *grin*

Thanks for sharing!

Hey!

I've entered a contest to win a walk-on role on that retro-licious TV show, "Mad Men".
