Miscellaneous Must Haves

ModCloth is a site that I've come to love for many reasons. Oh, let me count the ways. There's the great story behind the business, the unique prints on the dresses, and the feeling of visiting a vintage clothing store all by the click of a mouse. Do I even have to mention the Mad Men 60's vibe I get when I visit?

I had spent a lot of time shopping through the accessories, clothing and shoes while altogether missing out on the "apartment" section. That is until now! Check out some of the quirky items I must have from their site. At the very least, they'll bring a smile to my face.

Take Me Back In Time

Last night's episode of Mad Men inspired me to peruse the fashion web for pieces that are 60's inspired yet still up-to-date for fall. Fashions that include structured blouses, billowing A-line skirts, and dresses that show curves and not too much skin just like Peggy, Betty, and Joan wear on the show.

These pieces pay homage to the style of Marilyn Monroe, Grace Kelly, and Jackie O. Today they are seen on the likes of Zooey Deschanel, who always rocks preppy chic to the fullest. You can't avoid the influence of the era when you come upon the collections of Marc Jacobs and Michael Kors, either.

If your interested, the show also has a blog Fashion File written by Faran Krentcil of fashionista.com.

I do want to know though...is there a TV show that inspires your style? Cause I definitely found mine!
