Mad Men Mania

Season 3 of Mad Men starts August 16th, and even though I am catching up on the first two seasons via Netflix, I L-O-V-E this show, the 60’s style fashion styling is amazing and really who can resist the eye-candy that is Don Draper? One of my favorite stores for classic fashions (and probably one of yours too!), Banana Republic, is teaming up with AMC’s Mad Men for a casting call where YOU can be featured on the show. Through August 11th, shop at Banana Republic and you will receive an entry code to enter a photo of you in your best Mad Men inspired style and a chance to win a walk-on role on Mad Men and a $1000 gift card to Banana Republic!  During this time, Banana Republic will also be featuring window displays inspired by your favorite classic Mad Men looks.

House of Style is makin’ a comeback

Did anyone watch the 90′s show House of Style on MTV? The show was all about fashion and style and featured well known names like Cindy Crawford, Rebecca Romijn, Daisy Fuentes and Linda Evangelista.

House of Style - circa 1992

House of Style

My favorite part was a feature with Todd Oldham where he did do it yourself projects on fashion and redecorating your home. I am so excited to find out that MTV is revamping the show and it is returning to tv. Here is the show description from MTV:

“The next crop of fashionistas are on the rise, their muse playing now on a concert stage, tv screen, laptop or theater near you and this spring, MTV is partnering with Teen Vogue to bring them ALL together to celebrate fashion with a groundbreaking new spin on a vintage classic with House Of Style.

From the streets to the runway, fashion is the way you live, who you are and what you want the world to think about you. Now more than ever, a generation of young Americans are expressing themselves and their ideas through their clothes. MTV and host, Bar Refaeli are taking viewers into the inner sanctum of the fashion world as she, along with correspondent, Chanel Iman, bring you the top must-have items of the moment, along with celebrity fashion stories, designer DIYs, beauty tips, style secrets, cyber trends and more!

Drama, beauty, music & madness, this is… MTV’s House of Style.”

Check your local listings to see when House of Style will be available in your area. Check out new host Bar Rafeali in this clip courtesy of MTV:

I also found some clips from the old school House of Style that I thought you guys might enjoy:

I totally just flashed back to my thirteen-year-old fashion loving self :)
