So, I've got a confession to make... I've never actually seen Mad Men. But that didn't stop me from getting all dolled up, 1960s style, and heading out to my sister's Mad Men-themed cocktail party on Saturday night. It was so much fun, with plenty of booze, cigarettes {not real ones!}, tasty little morsels on tooth-picks, and rockin' tunes on the turntable. Loved it...

Pay no attention to the cell phone in the photo...
Smokin' and drinkin' and hangin' with the mad men {that's my brother-in-law, surrounded by the ladies}
Look at the guys {in their fedoras} checking us out...
They were candy cigarettes, I swear!
It was a fabulous way to spend a Saturday night. And the best part? Alan told me I looked like Audrey Hepburn. Audrey Hepburn! I knew I married him for good reason...
PS: Queuing up Mad Men on the Netflix now!
i've never seen it either but this looks so fun :)
ReplyDeleteStop it with all the cuteness!! I love it, the whole party looks absolutely fabulous. And you DO look like Audrey!
ReplyDeleteThat first photo...I thought it was from a 60's advertisement or something. So, so cute.
Now I want to have a Mad Men party. :)
Oh I can just imagine how awesome your Mad Men party would be, Bethany! You would KILL that look!
DeleteI never seen Mad Men either, but that party looks like fun, I would love to join in:)
ReplyDeleteSuch fun, Connie! We'll invite you next time, shall we? ;~)
DeleteOMG that was so fun! I want to do it again this weekend!! Didn't Jarrod get some great photos?
ReplyDeleteSo fun! And yes, Jarrod took some great pictures. It pays to have a friend who's a photographer! (and it doesn't hurt that we all looked so hot in our 60s get-ups!)
DeleteAhhh! I love everything!! I wish I could have been there :) In fact, I just emailed my friend a link to your blog post and told her we HAVE to do this for our next party ;) There's nothing I love more than a theme party! What a great one you guys had! Everyone looks so beautiful! You look like Audrey, Alan is so right!
ReplyDeleteCan you believe I have never seen one episode of Mad Men either? And I work in advertising!! haha Let me know how you like it :)
Aww, thanks! It was so much fun, Marianne! And everyone looked fabulous. The boys were dashing in their suits and fedoras. And who doesn't love to get all prettied up in a fancy dress?
DeleteYou should watch episode one of Mad Men and we can discuss!
This is completely fabulous! I thought the first picture was from the '60s (just like Bethany did!) and your outfit is so very Audrey. Good job, hus. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Amanda :)
