the codfish ball.

are you all enjoying the long-awaited season 5 of mad men as much as i am?!  so much of the character work of the early seasons is really paying off.  it's also the funniest season - perhaps unintentionally?  i mean everything out of roger's and pete's mouth has me loling, particularly "i know cooler heads should prevail, but am i the only one who wants to see this?" - to date.

anyway, last sunday's episode, at the codfish ball, had some of the greatest fashion of the season as well.  janie bryant is a genius.  

 {julia ormond, who i grew up loving in sabrina, as megan's mother.  i would wear this dress in a second}

 {sally draper, all grown up and 60s a go-go}

{mrs. megan draper.  i mean stunning in everything.  reminds me of eliza doolittle at the embassy ball for some reason here}

look at those faces.  i think the exchange at the very end of the episode says it all:

glenn: "how's the city?"

sally: "dirty."     

xo. di.

p.s. tom & lorenzo's mad style posts are still absolutely the best way to appreciate each episode.  they just kill it.  if you're looking for more, following janie bryant on twitter is a fantastic supplement as well.
