Need.

Thanks to my recent exposure to the Mad Men fashion blog/behind the scenes videos, I have had a sudden urge to be more ladylike. Here are some pieces I hope to add to my wardrobe very soon...or at least find some way to achieve the same looks at a much lower price! I am just an intern, after all.

Slip/Petticoat

Isn't this gorgeous?? This little baby peaking out from your skirt would be sure to put some spring into your step, not to mention the fun you would have just wearing it around the house! It's made by a company called Your Slip Is Showing. I love their designs! They have one with black/white trim and a little rhinestone Jolly Roger which I think is pretty sassy! Perhaps a DIY project might be in order for me on this one...

Little White Gloves

I first saw these on Frou Frou Fashionista's blog, and I've been in love ever since. Of course I could never in my wildest dreams afford these particular gloves, but I'm sure a suitable substitute can be found somewhere.

These Shoes

Perfect. Perfect. Perfect. I have a pair of all black, Anne Klein, sling back heels sort of reminiscent of these shoes. The toe and the heel are black patent leather and the rest of the top is quilted black leather (kind of like the 2.55) but one can never have too many shoes. Besides, flats and heels are totally different! There is no substitute for these...I'll have to dream for now.

Hats

Instant glamour. This particular hat can be yours if you stop by Metro Gypsy's etsy shop this particular hat can be yours. I'll have to be content to find one in the plethora of antique shops in my neighborhood.

*sighs* Instead I've got flour in my hair, butter smears on my jeans, and scone dough in my fingernails. Some day I'll be a lady. Someday.
